Truth be told
Oh, did I ever have a good time reading these responses to Truth?. I also learned that I should apparently take up poker or writing alibis, for no one picked the fabrication. I don’t know whether to be impressed or …
What are YOU doing for the least amongst us?
My friend Jennie, who can be found at The Soapdish, wrote recently of her husband’s trip to Kenya to assist at an orphanage. Many of these kids are AIDS orphans, left with nothing in a country that has little. Her …
Whew
Made it. Kinda sorta almost entirely barely. But look at that little calendar there! Full of oranged-out dates, full of posts. Good to see. NaBloPoMo 2009 is done. And while I’ve mostly loved it, there were a few days where …
