Forgive me for blogging about mostly books the last couple of weeks. I just happened to have finished several at once (a couple were really short), plus it has been a busy time, and somehow book reviews are easier for me to do than other posts where I am thinking through something. I do have a couple of the latter percolating on the back burner and hope to be able to finish them soon. Meanwhile, here is some interesting reading I’ve come across the last couple of weeks:
The Way Pinterest Makes Us Feel.
Two Ways to Ruin Your Relationship With the Giver. We hear a lot about the first one, but the second one is a problem, too.
11 Ways Mothers Change the World.
Why You Should Think Twice Before Badmouthing Obama. I am not a fan of the man but I cringe to see Christians calling him names when we are called to honor our authorities, even when we disagree with them.
Spurgeon on Christians Who Rail Against the Times.
Some of you might echo this sentiment:
And finally, it is that time of year again…
Some of you might recognize the character and the take-off from a quote in The Princess Bride. 🙂 I do feel that way about Daylight Savings Time, though! And it seems earlier this year. Don’t forget to turn your clocks ahead tonight.
Stray Thoughts 
I thought daylight savings seemed earlier this year too. Was it ever hard getting to sleep and then getting up this morning.
