Who writes this stuff?

I try to keep my priorities in order: Jesus, my Andy, our children, everything else. I homeschool our boys, love to read almost all written words and have been challenged by the military life for 18 years. Right now my faulty human body is demanding a lot of attention. One day at a time, learning as much as possible every day and remembering to look for JOY when other things threaten to overwhelm.

My Blog Title Verse

"For the Lord gives wisdom. From His mouth come knowledge and understanding." Proverbs 2:6 NKJV
The Message translation puts it this way "God gives out Wisdom free, is plainspoken in Knowledge and Understanding."

The ongoing, ever growing pile

This is my time for admitting my weakness. I meant to post this before I went camping, but didn't get it done. Oh well! 
The bedside table is the books I am currently reading. (or was, as of 5 days ago) There are two different translations of the Bible, two different devotional books, the book of Mormon, a book about Mormonism (I have a good friend who is Mormon, and wanted to understand her a little more thoroughly) a historical fiction, a science fiction, a Vampire book that I haven't actually started  yet, C.S. Lewis' The Screwtape Letters, A Year of living Biblically (which so far has been quite interesting, but not really "uplifting") and I believe there is a "classic" romantic novel in there somewhere. 
 The other picture is my pile of "books yet to start". Bags and baskets of things that I really want to get around to, but haven't yet. I think I might have a problem....

Problem, no. In need of a bookshelf, yes.

I think an expansion of the Binkley library system is needed. Get shelves!

Haha, Bethany, it's ok...my bookshelves look a little like that! What vampire book are you reading? And HOW on earth do you keep up with what is going on in so many books at a time? ;)

Is the vampire book from the "Twilight" series?! BEST BOOKS ever... since Harry Potter, at least. ;-)

BTW, I need to email you back :0) - I haven't forgotten. Just had a busy weekend, but I'll try to do it soon. Get ready for another 'book' coming your way, ha!

I know that
Vampire book! I've read the entire series and am looking forward to the new book coming out in August and the movie in December. If you haven't already started it, Twilight is really good, and the other two books are better!
