Sunday Link Love

Hey everyone,

Well, Hubby and I have been struck down by a stomach bug (me for the second time in two weeks!!) so we are at home recuperating this morning. In the meantime I thought I'd share with you some neat things I've read this week.

I have to tell you that Jana over at The Joy Box is quickly becoming one of my favorite places to visit in the blogosphere. She has done some really great series, the latest of which is The Joy in Motherhood, which is amazing. She's also done one on Overcoming Laziness and another on Overcoming Depression. Be sure to check her out.

Lady Lydia has a post up that includes a checklist of questions to ask yourself if you are bored at home. While I certainly don't meet many, or even most, of the questions, I certainly think that it's a good reminder of things we can do to make our homes places of refuge for our family. Often, I find myself using my time unwisely because I get overwhelmed and don't know where to start - this list could help me think of specific ways to make my home a better place.

Jess has written about her quest for the perfect calendar here. It's so funny and so true of many of us. Go read her post to learn about how technological advances are not always a good thing.

Over at The Sparrow's Nest, there's an explanation of both praise songs and hymns that will make you laugh. It's really good to realize that, while we may have a favorite style of worship, both are important and valid.

Ok, that's it for me. I'm off to bed to try to get some sleep before the kiddos come back from church. Hopefully, I'll be up and about tomorrow!

Ugh. Stomach flu is the worst. I sure hope you feel better soon. Thanks for passing along what you've found while recuperating though! I LOVE that Joy Box site! The instant I read she'd done a series on conquering laziness I knew that site was for me!! I promptly added it to my list of favourites. Thanks so much for pointing me in her direction.

Now go back to sleep and get better!!

Lori,
I'm sorry to hear you've been sick. I hope you and Ib get well soon and that the kidlets stay well!

Tammi, I so know what you mean! I was so excited about Jana's Overcoming Laziness series, I printed it out and put it in my master control journal to refer to often. Glad you like it!
