Thanks, Floyd. Time is definitely moving at warp speed, yes? I know you know that too, having seen one of your baby girls get married not long ago. I know it’s as it should be, but it’s still sobering when we sit back and see all the changes in our families. We’ve been following along with each other’s lives for awhile now! Good stuff.

Read what keeps up your morale—yes, that is great advice not only for yourself to follow, but for the rest of us, too. I listened to both of your youtube links–inspiring music to keep on in the background and worthy enough to pay full attention to as well. Thanks for sharing those links, Andrew.

The entire blog was a smash! Uncle Ellis looks young for his age. I decided I’d better not try to read any of those most popular abandoned classics… the old ADD and all. Then when I tried to take the introvert test I realized that I must be the ADD kind… couldn’t get through it… That explains the really bad grades in school. I realized how much you can see and the mind deduce in seconds. Touched by the picture of you and your girls… but blown away your baby is all grown up.

Congrats to you and Jeff! God, you, and Jeff did a great job…
Weird. I’ve been around so long I kinda feel like part of the family…

I didn’t really abandon “Atlas Shrugged” – I threw it as hard as I could through an open window.

August should be pretty much like every other month – trying to stay focused and alive, and choosing both reading and viewing that help keep up my morale.

For what it may be worth, here are two of my musical ‘themes’ for the month –

It’s funny that so far every one of us here has results of Social Introverts! Maybe that’s a blogger thing. 🙂 I’ll have to get my extroverted husband to take it and see what it says. ha.

Everybody has their favorites. 🙂 You have an eclectic set there. Enjoy!

Thanks, Bomi. It’s fun collecting the links and things to share. Hope you have a blessed day yourself!

I relate to your struggle with books. I always want to push through a few more pages, a few more pages, just to make sure that it’s not suddenly going to get better. ha. (It rarely has.) With Atlas Shrugged, I really read deeper into it than necessary looking for interest, but I could never connect with a single character. I kept thinking, “I don’t care” about anything or anybody in the book. So I finally gave up.

I’m glad you’ll be reading Knowing God too. Even if neither of us writes about it, it’s still nice to know someone else is reading along that I “know.” 🙂

If you like audiobooks, you would probably love podcasts too. They are addictive though; I’ll warn you.

Yes, Jenna’s summer has been a super busy one. And once she got home, it’s made mine super busy too. ha. But now that she’s officially in school every day, I hope to get back into my normal routine again too.

I’m not surprised either that you’re a Social Introvert, Dianna. 🙂 Yes, it seems like Jenna’s time at Auburn just flew by. She did graduate in 3 years, so it was a little faster than normal but it seems even quicker than that. Hope you’re having a wonderful week yourself.
