wow, wow, wow, how time has flown as one writes journals…

“grimm’s brothers fairy tales” – can’t remember if i mentioned that i got it on nook last week – anyway, it’s 600 pages, so i’m still reading it – although i got a good bit read yesterday at the sec championship game (easy to do when i could care less who wins:)

after, oh, about 200 pages, all the stories sort of run together – things are never as they seem, there’s always a set of “impossible” tasks that have to be done, and everything always works out happily ever after – while i like the stories and think they’d be good for middle school, again, the length is rather daunting

started “shine” by the newsboys – one of my more favorite music groups – the book is how to be light in a dark world – whether it means to call people out or to live a silent testimony – sort of that tention

as for magazines, i read SI’s feature on drew brees – their sportsman of the year – not much more i didn’t know from reading brees’ book – but still good – the article about the other members of the miami heat (aka, not lebron and the gang) was good too

hope your last week of journals is wonderful

sincerely,
maf
