Experience...
is a funny thing. You don't have it 'til you've had it. A few years ago, I didn't really enjoy baby-sitting. Then I got nieces. I like it pretty much now. They are very engaging individuals who never cease to amaze me with the heart-warming and charming things they do and think of.
A few years ago, I didn't know if I'd ever go to college. But I've been through FB, and I've been on a sojourn in the land of Columbus State, and more lies ahead! It's really possible.
A few random pics--
Tonight we made The Three Bears out of bread dough. Only they turned out to be a little more bunny-like than bear-like. Here Kaitlyn arranges her raisin artwork.
And Alexa adds her flair.
We ran out of raisins, so mine stayed plain.
The other day, I was waiting to meet with a math professor. I don't go down to the main campus often, so I always enjoy the bustling city life and cool views there. Like a dork, I took pictures out the window. A storm was gathering, and it was magnificent--in a downtown sort of way.

That's all for now, folks! May your experiences today be educational, fulfilling, and fun.

How to Talk to Girls
By Alec Greven
see relatedWisdom from 8-yr.-old Alec Greven:
"The right thing to do when you have a crush is:
Never show off too much
Don't be silly and goofy
Control your hyperness (cut down on sugar if you need to)
Make sure you have good friends who won't try to take the girl you like.Finally, you have to be able to get over a crush if it doesn't work out. A crush is like a love disease. It can drive you mad.
Try not to let it get you down."

Christmas 2008
Midnight Mass at St. Francis of Assisi--Rose, me, Vern, and Shannon
Waking up on Christmas morning--pretty happy!
Alexa patiently waits her turn.
Trevor, Cameron, Kaitlyn, and Alexa--they were tickled with the blankets from their aunts!
A happy fireman
Dad with the aerial picture Mom gave him
FINALLY they got to eat the gingerbread house!
Amateur chocolate art. These were all done by me. Note the difference a little practice can make--the first ones were disastrous. My friend Rosanna is to blame for making it seem possible."A thrill of hope--the weary world rejoices." Take it to heart in 2009.

So I chose one of the three weddings this fall to go to out west. I chose to go to my cousin Dorothy's wedding. It was so cool to have my friend Yvonne with me as we rented a car and drove the supposedly 5 hours to get to the wedding area. I shall tell of our trip in pictures.
In the air--is that not a gorgeous work of art??
Our rental car when it was still clean
The Royal Gorge Bridge--I recommend it! The tram, the bridge, me on the bridge
My cousin Rachel and her niece, Makayla
Wedding roses...Randall and Dorothy Martin
Friends...me, Yvonne, and Marilyn
Yvonne reading to me--You're Only Old Once!
The Rabbit Ears Pass--the beginning of our treacherous journey back
At our "homeless shelter" where we were stranded for several hours
The view from the 10th floor of our Hilton at 3:00 a.m....and the same view the next morning
I am glad not to be driving in snow through the mountains anymore! God was looking out for us in countless ways, and I praise Him for that.

A Fall Celebration with the Richwood Bank Team
We played a bunch of games, including water balloon volleyball, horseshoe golf or something of the such, RBC Bingo, and "Decorate the Frozen Purple Cow"--that's RBC-speak for "make a deluxe ice cream sundae with blindfolds on."
Jessica, the stern administrator of the Bingo game
Lining up for the Purple Cow game
Andy--gearing up for the whipped cream squirting, and his finished creation
Bruce--steady, measured, calculating
