Good news

I cannot even begin to tell you how Jesus changed my life. And because He did ,I'm posting a link to a 6 minute presentation of the way to have peace with God. If you have ever wondered what does the Bible say is the way to God listen or if you know someone who is seeking God and might want to listen to a 6 minute presentation,send them the link. Hey what can they lose by listening for 6 minutes and it may just change their life! Libby

I joined an online book club!

This is new for me and something I have always wanted to do- discuss a book I was reading with someone. We are having it message board style on her blog. I had never heard of this book before but I met the woman leading the discussion through Shelfari cuz when you add books to your "shelf" they show you others who have the same book on theirs so i went to her shelf and looked and loved many books she had so I felt safe with the book even though I had never heard of it before. I am loving this book. He is an amazing writer Leif Enger. Anyway just had to share. If you want to take a look at our "discussions" or join in follow link

I tagged myself!

I have seen this on Joy Forney's blog as well as Megan Spear's blog and I really liked getting to know them better so Megan invited others to join so I tagged myself and here are 10 random or weird things about me.

1.I am terrified of mice/rats- really I saw one in the back room where I worked one time ( don't ask me how it got there cuz it was at a mall) and I wouldn't go in there until I knew it was gone I even had other stylists mix my color for me 8)

2. Finding really good bargains actually gives me a thrill! It's a natural high for me. I know I'm strange!

3. I'm a fan of American Idol

4.I like, though I have not had it since Beauty School, Braunschweiger on Sourdough toast with grape jelly!! It was cheap at the restaurant next to the Beauty School I went to and i'd have it for breakfast. I think it was 90 cents!

5. I actually like giving pedicures. Trimming toenails the whole bit. Strange

6. if I find hair in my food it totally grosses me out and I can't eat it.

7.I love looking at clouds- not that i want it to be cloudy but i find them fascinating

8.I'm a twin- that's not weird but random.

9. Every time I have stayed at my sister's house to watch her dogs something happens that never happens when they are there- once her two Sheba Inu's were outside at night and i called them in and when they finally came in they had blood all over them- turns out they had caught a possum . Another time there was a mouse and I had to have me husband come and stay instead of me .

10I LOVE office products. I don't know why but they are just so cool to me. new pens,post its ,etc etc

Hope that wasn't TMI for anyone. Libby

Preparing my heart for Easter

Hi, I wanted to pass this link on to Holy Week or Easter Week devotionals from my Niece's Church in Salem Ore-Salem Alliance Church. I don't know about you but I always want celebrations of Jesus' birth and Resurrection to be extra special but it seems like busy-ness crowds in sucking the life out of the celebrations so when she sent me this link I just had to pass it on in case,like me,you need it desperately ! May the celebration of the resurrection of Jesus be filled with meaning and LIFE! Because of Him, Libby

My "Bookshelf"

I think I am liking the bookshelf but may need to make it smaller. The reason I like it is that I get 99% of my books from the library and now I can have a "Shelf" for them but don't have to own them. I'd love to hear of some of your favorites . Libby

Google Reader

My friend Megan Spears told me recently about this cool tool Google has and maybe you are like me and had never heard of it but it is awesome if you keep up with several blogs you can set it up so you can read the unread posts from one page. I am loving it. Here is a link to check it out  Google Reader.   Thanks Megan!
