A free book for you.

Cause I’m a giver. That’s not entirely true. Actually, my friend Brad is a giver. You may remember that I blogged about his book Finding Home in October. Here’s my review, just in case you missed it. Brad has decided that instead of selling his book to you, he just wants you to have it.

I just love it.

Book club, that is. As you know, one of my favorite parts of my Marietta life was my book club. In fact, I wrote an article about it. And so when I moved to Nashville, and a new friend told me that she was in a book club, I asked to join. Sure, I didn’t

Speak to me.

200 languages are spoken by more than 1 million people worldwide. I’m pretty sure I have a working knowledge of English. Sorta. So that leaves 199 for me to learn. Starting with French. And here is why. I tend to overshare. Hence the reason I have this blog. Hence the reason I didn’t get any

Cape Town? More like NEED-A-CAPE TOWN!

I haven’t slept much. As indicated by the lame joke in the title of this post. But it is really cold. As in, it would help if I had a cape to wrap myself in. I brought one sweatshirt. I will wear it every day and you shouldn’t judge me for that. I’m serving God.

I have to walk out my door in 4 minutes. But I just had to say bye and thanks for your prayers and keep up with us at the Mocha Club blog! There are 2 posts there already, including a video about my packing shenanigans. [Just click on the button below] Ok, I SERIOUSLY have

Annie’s shoes.

I have a friend named Annie. On Sunday, I called her to go shoe shopping with me and instead, she GAVE me her shoes. The same shoes that took her to Africa a few months ago will take me to Africa tomorrow. Somewhere, in my mind, is rolling around the depth of this idea- two

Smile, Wednesday… uh… Tuesday.

So that whole video about getting my license was so dumb I couldn’t even expose you to it. It would have been wrong. Trust me. I care about you too much to make you watch 4 minutes of my idiot self, in my car, discussing the ups and downs of our government departments. Instead, here’s
