Thank you for giving me more reason to rejoice at the fact that you will no longer be in Congress come January.Â? I needed some joy in my day.
If you like Jan Karon’s books about Mitford and Father Tim, you need to read the Dearest Dorothy books.? I was introduced to them last year when I got them out of a box of books that Mom had brought me 6 months earlier and I had to order #4 when it came out.? I just got #5 today and devoured it.? I’m re-reading it of course but seriously… it’s a good series.
I’m also really impressed with how accurately Charlene Ann Baumbich (the author) portrays small town life.Â? I can actually see everything happening having lived in a town of comparable size and she even portrayed the thoughts of the pastor’s wife accurately.
So put these on your wishlist for Christmas! They are soooo worth reading!!!

It’s about… -10F with an ungodly windchill.
Any warm weather one could send up here would be appreciated.
Almighty God our Father, your generous goodness comes to us new every day.Â? By the work of your Spirit lead us to acknowledge your goodness, give thanks for your benefits, and serve you in willing obedience; through your Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.Â? Amen.
The new Loreena McKennitt CD is out and it is very good. I’m listening on Napster and it is on my Amazon.Com wishlist. (Hint. Hint.)Â? My favorite song thus far is “Penelope’s Song”.
