Thank you for including my #write31days series “31 Uplifting Quote Graphics” in your roundup. Blessings!
Thanks for that first link — I’ve sent it on to a friend who is writing a study on suffering. And the “warm products” link had some interesting things there. I thought the fingerless USB gloves was a great idea. Too bad its model was wearing a miniskirt/shorts!
Great links, Barbara. I’ve got a couple bookmarked. The grieving over the holidays looks like a good one. It’s been 14 years since Alan passed away and the holidays still don’t easy for me. Have a blessed day.
Barbara, thank you for sharing these links. I really enjoyed the one about why we should memorize an entire book of the Bible. I’m a long way from that, but after doing several memory challenges at Do Not Depart on a chapter at a time I can easily see how profitable it would be to memorize and entire book. Hmmm…I’m wondering if maybe this just might be a doable goal for me for 2016? Thanks again, my friend.
thanks for the links 🙂
