I can’t keep up!

I’ve officially given up on trying to keep up with all of my blogs, newsletters, etc… I just can’t do it!  I don’t want to close them either, I’m hoping maybe after the first of the year things will quiet down again and I can catch up.

Life has been CRAZY… and no, I don’t wanna talk about it.

I will say that Beloved World is an absolutely horrible book.  The principle was great (the author tried to write a novel based on the Bible… to highlight what she felt were the more important parts for a person that may be intimidated by the idea of reading the whole Bible).  Unfortunately, the author’s doctrine was screwed up, she was lacked the ability to understand that characters in the Bible were NOT 20th century Americans, she couldn’t seem to decide whether she was writing a novel or a book report, and she cut the book off beforer even getting to the conclusion she set out to make in the beginning!

Ugh, that was a waste of a few weeks worth of evening reading.  I still like thee concept though.  It could have worked.

After reading that mess I’ve had to start reading the gospels again just to purge her horribly wrong paraphrases from my brain.

Anywho, back to the grindstone.
