But my husband is the one I am committed to for life. That's the bond and commitment that must take priority. Even after children arrive, the best thing we can do as husband and wife is love each other and put each other first. A Ring of Endless Light - Madeleine L'Engle - Blog Entry13 Jul 2008 11:30 PM My daughter and I both loved this book and the other Austin books, as well as A Wrinkle in Time and Wind in the Door. I'm also a big fan of Madeleine L'Engle's non fiction eg Walking on Water, the Crosswick Journals. Madeleine L'Engle always challlenged me to think about my faith even if I didn't always agree with some of the conclusions she came to. Broken Ring, Broken Heart - Blog Entry12 Jul 2008 03:34 PM Can imagine how bad you feel, Courtney. I lost the garent out of the ring my dh bought me for our 40 year wedding anniversay. I was so upset. We a were watching footy in a crowd. When the lady behind saw the panic and scrabbling round, she had a look and found the stone under her seat in her row and handed it back. Fortunely the ring was still under warranty and so we took it back to the shop and they fixed it all up. Ths stupid part was I'd thought to myself I shouldn't wear this probably to the footy, since I get right it flag waving and clapping, but then ignored that inner prompting. I learned a lesson that day- to listen to that inner voice. "Your" Song: Significant in So Many Ways - Blog Entry10 Jul 2008 07:29 PM our song is 'You're my world'. Not because of the person who sang it, as I'm not that big a fan of Cilla Black and not because of any specific moment. But because of the words in it. They're here. http://www.6lyrics.com/music/cilla_black/lyrics/you_re_my_world.aspx Baby Boom - Blog Entry09 Jul 2008 02:24 PM I'm a fan of Diane Keaton (mostly) and liked this movie. It's good fun and has a positive message. He Stepped Up When It Mattered Most, Part 2 - Blog Entry08 Jul 2008 11:42 PM My thoughts and prayers are with you at this time, Courtney. Definitely, Maybe (2008) - Blog Entry08 Jul 2008 02:11 PM Can't say I agree. I found this an annoying film. It was a case of definitely , maybe ,NOT. Strangely enough of two couples I know who saw this film the women reacted like me whereas the men enjoyed it. What Do You Read For? - Blog Entry05 Jul 2008 03:04 PM I agree, I couldn't imagine not reading fiction either. Fiction would make up most of my reading, although I also like reading poetry, biographies and journals by writers etc. While I read my Bible I do not read a lot of other Christian non fiction. Is the Second Divorce Easier Than the First? - Blog Entry04 Jul 2008 03:10 PM Thanks, PastorMonty. I remember hearing that people who divorced once were more likely to divorce again but didn't know what the actual stats were. And I think that pre-marriage counselling is good idea. Anything that can help people make wise choices and realise that marriages need to be worked at not just abandoned when the going gets tough and that honeymooon period QueenAngie mentioned is over. Babe: Pig in the City (1998) - Blog Entry04 Jul 2008 02:57 PM When my daughter and I saw this we absolutely cracked up laughing in some scenes, but I agree it is darker and doesn't have the charm of the original Bbe. But then sequels re often not as good as the original.I often wonder what the book was like that the first film came from. I've never read it. 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 57 58 59 60 61 62 63 |
