This week has been such a busy blur, and my wife and I go out of town on Saturday evening to California. She has a training and I get to tag along. We love our family, church, and everyone else in our lives, but we are very thankful to have this time together!
This week’s random picture really solves one of life’s mysteries that I just didn’t know. Perhaps you didn’t either.
So that kid in the third grade who everyone thought needed a bath? Turns out he was just a penguin! It all makes sense now.
I hope you have a very blessed weekend!

I thought you might be a penguin. It explains so much.
Wendy recently posted..Summer is out to get me
Well, I am flightless and love swimming… Hey, wait a minute, are you saying I stink? *moral outrage*
Thanks for the add to the list. I am humbled.
I’m not a penguin and I still smell…
michael recently posted..I Miss You
You are welcome! And if you are not a penguin but you smell, then none of this makes sense again! Back to the drawing board I guess.
Thanks for including my God in the Yard/Porch post.
Just perused the booklist in your sidebar. Safe People looks interesting. Will have to put that on my wish list!
Cheryl Smith recently posted..My Story for Porn Week
You’re welcome, Cheryl. Yes, Safe People is a very good book- very informative. You should definitely check it out.
I recently discussed on my own blog about taking a stand against Social Media. Some great comments already but it is something I think we all need to at least view from our own vantage points!
Wow. I’m honored to make the list. Thanks very much!
Alan Danielson recently posted..What Makes My Book Different Than All The Others
I appreciated the post, Alan!
I made the list! I made the list! I’m even more excited because you mentioned penguins!

I do what I can, Jay! Thanks for being such an amazing blessing.
Wow, Jason, I’m honored. There are some great posts here. Have a great weekend!
Scott Coucheour recently posted..9-Inch Choices
You are very welcome. I know I need to think about my decisions carefully and others do too so I am glad to share!
Together we are stronger than any one of us individually. Keep sharing the insights!

Happy birthday, Herb! I was glad Michael introduced me to you and your blog. I love how God connects people.
Thanks! I’m thankful for the new connection as well.

Matthew Snider recently posted..Taking a stand against Social Media!
Ha! Thanks Matthew. Happy reading.
I wonder if these signs are available for sale.
Technically, you could go to a sign maker and have them make whatever you want. They should be for sale though.
Picture reminded me of a joke.
Max: My dog has no nose.
Mike: Then how does he smell?
Max: AWFUL!
Thank you for providing me with another opportunity to share my wisdom.
