Author = Reader?

So, I'm pretty sure that all my readers have stopped reading my blog. I hope I haven't bored everyone.=[ Even if all my readers have vanished into oblivion, I will still continue to keep writing. It's cathardic for me and just in case I ever do anything spectacular (doubtful), there will be some document that will have recorded that little moment in history. Until then, I'll just write my thoughts and what I've been up to in the past week.

On Thursday, my friend Dinah and I baked 158 cookies in 3 hours. I call that a feat! We frosted and put on sprinkles on them too. The cookies have been sitting in my house, tempting me ever since I lifted the first batch out of the oven. Actually, the dough started tempting me as soon as we laid it out. The cookies will be leaving the house with me tomorrow as I make my way to school. I really hope the children appreciate all that work, dang it. =P

On Saturday, I recieved two books from a family friend. The one I started reading on Sunday is called "Against All Odds." It's the first in a series titled, "Heroes of Quantico." It's a romantic suspense novel, which is definitely not the type of book I normally read, but it's still good. Since I really don't have much else to do, this book has been a blessing. Plus, it has Christian themes in it, which are always a plus for me. I don't want to give away any more information about the book because it would probably ruin most of the story.

Yesterday, I was volunteered at my local hospital. On a trip from the bathroom to the station where I work, I spotted this really gorgeous looking book on a shelf. There wasn't anyone waiting to be helped, so I picked up the book and took it to my desk. It had a hard cover on it and I could see that it was written by one of my favorite Christian authors, Max Lucado. MY GOODNESS were the pictures beautiful. And let me tell you, that man has a way with words. The whole book was dedicated to Jesus. In it, there were pictures of waterfalls, landscapes, and my personal favorite, one of sunshine rays streaming down through clouds. Here's a saying that literally struck me to tears (as I was working! Max! I need to pay attention!): "On the eve of the cross, Jesus made his decision. He would rather go through hell for you then go to Heaven without you." What a wonderous thing to say. It's totally true though. Man, I wish I could come up with sayings like that!

Well, there isn't much else to mention. I'll save you the boring details. =]
Thank you for taking time out of your day (or night) to read my blog.
I truly appreciate it.
