For some reason, this old post of mine from 2009 is getting a lot of hits.  So here ya go – Obama Blunders. 

While we’re at it- this old one from 2004 still gets a lot of hits too.  It even has a Google Page rank of 1.

This article really hit home with me – 10 Reasons I Love my Ugly Body.  The blogger has lost an incredible amount of weight, but still has sagging skin around her thighs and abdomen.  Nonetheless, her body is amazing and strong and she’s a brave woman to put it out there like that.  Good for her!

Ready to do some work on your soul this summer?   This might be the ticket – Spend the Summer in the Little Oratory!

Yes. Yes, it is. The whole point of Liturgy is to bring us closer to God and the closer we are to Him, the more we are open to the grace freely given to sustain us. Your oratory won’t look like my oratory. More importantly, your oratory won’t live like my oratory. At its essence, oratory means house of prayer. Every family lives differently in such a home. No doubt, the vocation to create such a place is a high calling and an endeavor for a lifetime.

Julie at Bravewriter has just introduced a new product called, A Quiver of Arrows.   Looks enticing!

We are adding a 10 month set of Arrows for the early ages (between The Wand and The Arrow—1st-2nd grades). These are classic novels, hand-picked by me. The Arrows are revised from earlier versions into brand new robust issues (including the weekly dictation passage in a French-style Dictation format every week, ready to print and use!).

This was an interesting story, about a mother delivering her own baby, with her own hands – after her C-section!
