Life in Janvier

(I don't even know if I got that right. It's supposed to be "January" in French, but I am a little foggy on how it's spelled. I think it's right though.)


First of all it's very soggy out here. So soggy that part of our yard is pretty much a lake. My two-year-old brother put a rubber ducky in the water, and runs around the house excitedly, saying, "Robber Docky swimmin'!" and pointing out at the yard. This delights me to no end.


Last night was marvelous. I got all hyper and, with most of my little siblings, sneaked around the house and then jumped out at people, screaming "RARRR!!" It scared the wits out of my other siblings and my parents. We couldn't stop laughing.


I'm going through Julia Cameron's "The Artist's Way" again... this time I bought it at Barnes & Noble so I can go through it whenever I like. I also bought "Mere Christianity" by C. S. Lewis, which I love because it makes so much sense!! (He's so intellectual, I adore him.) I'm reading it really slowly so I can soak all the goodness in.


I love being at my parents house. It's so wildly fun and crazy, and keeps me on my tippy-toes mentally.


Cheers.

  1. I LOVE Mere Christianity - what I've read of it.
    I need to read the whole thing.
    Don't Waste Your Life by John Piper is really good, too! ^_^

  2. I love Mere Christianity! I had to read it in freshman year and it was amazing. Really helped my faith.

Welcome to posting a comment on my blog; I thank you for clicking here and I'm sure we will be fast friends if we aren't already, since I love people who comment. But I don't really like people who nit-pick my blog. That tends to get nowhere with me except to make me first laugh, then blush, and finally growl. Not to mention it doesn't make the nit-picker look particulary good either. However, if you would really like to nitpick, email me at cierrawrites@gmail.com. I may or may not reply, but I'll always love you since you commented anyway. Alright, comment away!
