My Random 5 for March 28, 2014


1. I am anxiously waiting for my friends to arrive for our Friday Night Book Club.  The book we’ll be discussing is Victims by Jonathan Kellerman.  Afterwards we decided to read something more light-hearted for our April meeting. So we will be reading The Joy Luck Club by Amy Tan.
  
2. Yesterday evening was Eucharistic Devotion which ended with the dedication of a Rosary made from the funeral roses of our beloved Father Keane.  The rosary now hangs on the hand of the stunning statue of the Blessed Mother.  I am using an image I have shown before.  I neglected to take my camera last night so I will update Mary’s image with the new rosary as soon as I can. 


3. A book I ordered on Tuesday from Amazon arrived just a few minutes ago.  It is entitled Surviving the Angel of Death: the Story of a Mengele Twin in Auschwitz by Eva Kor. 
I saw a live stream of Eva on a university’s site.  I had already read a different book by another Holocaust survivor.  It was called Sevek and the Holocaust: The Boy Who Refused to Die by Sidney Finkel.  You can read about his presentation at a nearby school on my old blog-Scrappy Grams.  That post can be found here.  I lost my Scrappy Grams’ dashboard so that I could no longer write on that blog.  It saddened me, but as you can see, I’ve moved on.

4. I am still wrestling with the idea of having only one blog.  I started Faith in a Bottle to share my faith with others, but I see many whom I admire write all their posts, spiritual and otherwise on one blog.  Then I think, “Do I just dump one or do I create another new one?”   hmm…

5. I saw on Facebook that my newly engaged granddaughter is going to use Ball jars in some way for her wedding reception.  I wonder…

My Random 5 for March 7

1. Our Bible Study celebrated Mardi Gras.  
I blogged about our fete on Tuesday, but I had no photo of our group yet.  
Thanks to one of the ladies who took our picture, 
I now have one to post. Thanks, BJ.

2. Having missed a few Bible Study meetings 
because of my anxiety about driving on snowy roads,
 I was greeted with “I’m glad that you’re back.”  
What a wonderful boost that was for my sagging psyche!

3.I bought a Samsung 3 Tablet last Saturday.  
The advantages I’m enjoying are- 
reading an ebook with much less swiping it 
to turn pages 
and I can journal at my kitchen table 
with less strain on my arthritic neck. 
I passed my Kindle on to my daughter.


4. Speaking of reading, 
I am currently reading Victims by Jonathan Kellerman.  
I really like the  yin and yang of the two main characters Alex Delaware 
and the policeman Milo.  If you like mysteries, it’s a real page-turner.

5. The sun is shining and the high predicted for today is 60 degrees!  

Note to readers, my daughter is healing quite nicely from her surgery.  
God is good and so are my friends who prayed for her!
