Today I am home with no car. That means that, even if I wanted to, I can't go anywhere because my only choice is the truck with a faulty fuel injector. This is actually good news, because today is a migraine day. Not the full-fledged tomahawk headache (that was yesterday), but the I'm-okay-as-long-as-I-don't-move-too-fast headache. Bleck.
Which means I'm boring. Sorry.
I wanted to do some sort of funny, clever post after a few days of deep thoughts. Deep thoughts are impossible today; they hurt. Unfortunately, clever hurts today, too. Since brain mush is the best I can do, today I serve you the infamous 10 Random Things post:
1. I reread books. The Mitford series by Jan Karon is my all-time favorite reread. I go through them about once a year. If you haven't read them, you must. It's important.
2. I have also reread Mary Stewart's Merlin Trilogy and Rosemunde Pilcher's fluffy but sweet books numerous times. Very British.
3. Favorite wickedly funny book: Dorthy Cannell's The Thin Woman, and the rest of the Ellie Haskell series. Very British. Very corny. You are my friend if you like these. (And what is not to like about books with titles like Bridesmaids Revisited and The Importance of Being Ernestine ?)
4. On that note, I love corny jokes. Recently I spotted this bumper sticker: "Support bacteria. It's the only culture we've got left." I laughed. DD#1 rolled her eyes.
5. Just thinking about laughing made my head hurt.
6. My bucket list: 1) Learn to take pictures like King Au (Have you seen his work in Life Beautiful? It will make you salivate.) 2) Visit the British Isles 3) Go to Australia 4) Learn to play the cello...and the banjo.)
7. Chocolate chip cookies are the BEST dessert ever. Umm. Raspberries and good French roast coffee complete me.
8. My husband is my favorite person in the whole wide world. I really love him, and I really, really like him. A lot.
9. Turning 40 brought great confidence and freedom. It's a good life season.
10. If you are still reading this, I like you a lot, too.
Have a great weekend!

You have got to come DESPERATE for this study. So HUNGRY and THIRSTY for God. You have to engage in the drama of the Israelites returning back to their homeland from Babylon. Keep that in mind as you prepare for this study.
