A Time to Modify

Posted on by Mary

I have been using the Side-tracked Home Executives card file for cleaning and home organization. I like this method a lot..mostly because i am a side-tracked home executives with ADOS.l.lotherwise as Attention Deficiet…ohhh shiny!

As my kids have gotten older…they were babies when i started, they wanted to be like mommy and so i would catch them with the entire crd file box in the middle of the floor, stacking them in order of color, which kind of defeats the purpose!

So after about 10 times of reorganizing it and our move this past March i had some modifications in mind! So this is what i started with:

So i went to the store and boght 7 of the multi colored bound index cards and this is what i ended up with:

Then to finish it up i covered just the writing with a strip or two of packing tape and I use Bic Mark It pens to mark off what i have accomplished!

This is a quick note to let all the walking-by-faith.net readers know that a few things have changed in relation to Facebook integration. Facebook has released an official plugin to WordPress and I have migrated this site to that plugin.

What you should notice is that you no longer need to worry about signing onto this website for comments it will all be done through Facebook. This also means is that for the time being all old comments have disappeared. They are not lost, but until Facebook updates their plugin they will stay hidden. The appearance of a few things have changed but on a whole nothing much is different. Please continue to enjoy the site as you normally would. If you run into any issues comment here or let Mary know.

Thoughts From the Heart.

I have mentioned a few times that I have been working on the Good Morning Girls Bible Study. It is my first time participating in an online Bible study and I have loved it for the most part and I look forward to the next one. It is hard to believe there is only two weeks left! It has flown by so very quickly…too quickly.

I have shared only a few things but this week, I thought I might share something that hit me. We will start at the beginning of the week with Monday’s verse:

Proverbs 31:30 – Charm is deceitful and beauty is vain but a woman who fears the Lord is to be praised. (ESV)

The very first thing is the little phrase, “is to be praised”. Notice it’s not “will be praised”. King Lemuels mother is telling her son to praise God fearing women…particularly his wife, after that what she is teaching him to look for is a God fearing woman.

Then as the week progresses we hit the passage that challenged my heart…actually the very next day: Tuesday!

Soooooo I got an email from……

……oh wouldn’t you like to know? Actually I want to say this if you are a Christian who works with or has or loves a little kid who is a big fan of Veggie Tales I have some news that I want to talk to you about! Now about that email. The email was from MovieGuide. They send out e-mails concerning family centered entertainment choices! The most recent email I received was concerning VeggieTales who had been purchased along with Classic Media, which includes Rocky and Bullwinkle, Casper the Friendly Ghost and some others, by none other than Dreamworks! When I opened the email it startled me because there alongside of our once beloved VeggieTales stands Shrek and his whole ogerish crew! Now many of you knew I lost interest in VeggieTales back when Phil Vischer lost ownership, but this newest developement leaves me as a mom scratching my head. By placing Veggie Tales next to Shrek is Dreamworks preparing us for a drastic change? Will we be hearing crude donkey jokes out of sweet little junior asparagus? (or at least something along those lines??).

I have found all of this very interesting! I hope you do tooo. We need to keep our eyes and ears open as we guard what is absorbed by the little hearts and minds God has given to us to be stewards over. I am not telling you what to choose either! We need to be watchful and understand what on earth is going on around us! We need to be informed!
