Not what I thought I would post, but

on my mind. Even if you are not a Christian, I think you can skip the specific references to Christ and get something out of this:

1 Peter 3:15-18

Sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts. Always be ready to give an explanation to anyone who asks you for a reason for your hope, but do it with gentleness and reverence keeping your conscience clear, so that when you are maligned, those who would defame your good conduct in Christ may themselves be put to shame. For it is better to suffer for doing good, if that be the will of God, than for doing evil. (Followed by more Christ-God-talk that you can google if you are really intersted.)

The "other" white meat..

And it was lamb and it was gooood!

Ha ha ha!

Collegium was splendific. I had zero expectations except I intended to lounge on the grass. My experience exceeded my expectations. But for me it starts the night before with a last-push sewing effort.

( The night before and bad choices )

( on lounging and forgetting my company manners )

( On Feasting and Polite Shenanigans...aka Godric is a HERO )

And, once home, I find my mom upstairs reading. The 4yr old Fashion Diva is passed out in her bed. My 7yr old is sitting in the office next to daddy with a laptop; both are playing computer games side by side and they wave at me as I come in. I watch as Daddy leans down to help our boy genius manipulate his adventurer.

Yes, I'm home with my biggest fans. And I had a great day! (cut)
