Hot dog I’m rich! Woohoo!

If I had a penny for every time I’ve gotten one of these ‘winning’ spam emails, I’d be able to buy a gallon of gas! (What? Gas is expensive these days… that’s a lot of pennies!) Today, I am a millionaire! I’ve won an inheritance of $5 million U.S. dollars only. WOW! It’s waiting for me at the Central Bank of Nigeria! All I have to do is call the number listed and all $5 million (U.S. dollars only) will be wired to Bank of America… and I’ll be super duper rich! I’m just stunned that some stranger would leave me such a sum of money! [insert major sarcasm here]

I wonder if anyone actually believes those kinds of emails? I mean, really… they couldn’t, right?

Ok, so I’ve taken a slight break from the blog-hops this week… I needed some time to rejuvenate because I was spending hours (yes HOURS) reading blogs linked up to these hops. Yes that’s a good thing because I’ve found some really amazing blogs this way… but… HOURS. That makes my day really REALLY long… with all the stuff I have to do offline, ya know.

I’m a gonna do some hopping today however. I have a new strategy… one that will +hopefully+ lead me to great blogs without spending hours on end clicking through links. So here we go with the hopping… hold on, it’s gonna be a bumpy ride!

2 Truths and a Lie: hmmm… ok here goes:

1. I’m a major book worm. I have over 100 books in my collection and have read them all.
2. I’m also a movie and music junkie. At last count, I had nearly 400 CDs and over 100 DVDs and have listened to or watched them all at least once.
3. I’m pretty picky (OCD) about how things are arranged. For example, all my DVDs are labeled and in alphabetical order by title– like books in a library. My books, however, are in order by author and date published.

So, can you tell me which is truth and which is not?

I am thankful that my parents have the opportunity to take a long (15 day) vacation to one of the places they have always wanted to vacation (Hawaii) in honor of their 30th anniversary this past June. (In case you are confused, it is my Mom and Step-Dad. That’s why the anniversary year that is younger than I am old…lol). They have been the best parents anyone could ask for, and they both deserve to take time off and focus on each other! (I’d love if you’d pray for their safety while on vacation… they leave on Saturday and are flying out, 8 hour flight.)

I was asked to teach the 3rd-6th grade Discipleship class at my church starting next Sunday night, the 12th. I am very excited about this, and about the age group. This is an impressionable age group… the age when bullying in school starts along with peer pressure. I can’t wait to share Jesus with these kids and teach them lessons that will apply to their everyday lives, including school! Maybe, hopefully, with His help, I can make a difference- leave an impression that will carry on with them throughout their school days and the rest of their lives!
