The sinus headaches have lifted and I'm beginning to feel healthy again. I don't care what people say about Facebook, I've got great friends who pray for me there. I suppose I'd have them without FB, but it sure is a nice place to hang out once in awhile.

My son hit up a library sale on the way home from school, bagging about twenty books for $6.00, including hard cover short story anthologies, a like-new Anne of Green Gables 
for his sister, a Garrison Keillor paperback for me, an FDR biography for his dad and a dozen or more classic titles. What better way to begin a Friday evening listening to my daughter read aloud L.M. Montgomery's quaint story.

A friend introduced me to Red Mountain Church music
