Ah well. I am not too worried. If I have a lisp, I have a lisp. I don't think it's really obvious. Granted, I'm glad to be aware of it now so that I can maybe improve it. Anyway, good post. It's so good to have oppurtunities to grow even if they bring uncertainty or are hard to endure.  adamandjessesdad I know how you feel. But I keep resisting the opportunities to grow.  sooze *hands Peni a piece of chocolate pie*  two Thank you for the good advice.  curlie :)  slave_of_jesus_jdb Thanks, sister, good attitude.  heatherbrackeen shards of WHIMSY. couldn't agree more.  runningjake Great thoughts, I know how you feel. Life is a little chaotic for me right now too. It's nice to know I'm not the only one. :)  whipsmile i hear ya  mister_c truth!  mjintexas You rock, Peni.  adamandjessesdad Do shards of whimsy hurt?  chooselove indeed....  mjintexas I'm a huge fan of surprise phone calls. :)  psemmusa No hyphen / dash? Peni Jean not Peni-Jean?  psemmusa And I don't think you could ever become unsufferable, but then I am prejudiced in your favour of course :) I love the lolcat pic in your comment, thank you :)  smiley_face Keep praying!!!  emotionalalienation is this because i cant write or because you like pictures?  login to comment hide comments this is how God holds me together 06-21-08 05:43pm EST this video is eight minutes long. i saw it on her blog. blew. me. out. of the water. it's true. i looked it up myself. i would be very interested to hear your reactions to this. incognito That is amazing! Thanks so much for sharing this.  heatherbrackeen I love Louie giglio! i just gave marty our copy of Indescribable. you are right to be a fan  heather6330 I have this whole thing on DVD. If you want to borrow it I'll send it to you!  71lespaulcustom That's pretty wild!  dragonwriter very neat and interesting coincidence!  buddabignbald Amazing! I've been reading around about this on the internet and everything I read against it makes little difference to me. This is powerful illustration.  nontradish Thanks for posting this. Great way to start my Sunday mornng.  emotionalalienation interesting....  emotionalalienation of course i had to google it  betheboo It's considered a diploma not a degree. I'm so nervous to go back to school. I feel so old. LOL  mjintexas I think it's interesting... but I'm not sure if it is particularly symbolically significant (if that's a sentence.) I'm more impressed by the implications of intelligent design in such a molecule rather than it being in the shape of a cross. Something in is just might be fish shaped too... or heart shaped...  two That looks wonderful -- thanks. I've tried to get her to read a couple of books last year (like "You can be happy, no matter what"), but it was actually pretty frustrating for her. The psychologist she went to a few times this year just had her watching "New Age" stuff (like "The Secret"), but did nothing to really try to teach her to manage her thoughts. The link you gave me for the place in Houston may be exactly what we need.  adamandjessesdad It certainly makes a great analogy!  millychloe Hey, thanks for the encouragement, and constructive criticism! I actually am not sure how much of that is a lisp and how much is the fact that I have a cheap microphone. Honestly, I never even noticed a lisp at all. I'm glad you brought it to my attention so I can be more aware of it. However, I know that the microphone really does make the enunciation of my words less clear, so hopefully that's all you are hearing. Anyway, thanks for the comment, I will pay more attention to that!  millychloe Okay, now I'm listening to Lifehouse, and i honestly can't tell that he lisps either, so maybe I'm just not in tune to it at all becaue I'm so used to it. Well, I will talk to my voice teacher about it, maybe he will have some advice for me. Thanks for mentioning it, honestly, I really appreciate it. If you have anything else, let me know~  millychloe I'm sorry I keep saying "Honestly".. I'll honestly try to work on that too.  smiley_face WOW! that waz amazing!  heatherbrackeen yo ho ho and a bottle of rum... im a pirate  kat_of_the_deuce pics of my flower gardens are up  psemmusa *praying* I look forward to watching the video when I'm in a location which doesn't block it (ie home).  lboogie1403 oh...you can come see my finished post now :) i wasn't quite done when you commented :)  ondroodle I can take you guys. Maybe. Not together though. That would be bad. For me. Not you.  psemmusa Still haven't watched the video yet. Will try to do so tomorrow. Your comment on Mr Paul's blog was brilliant. You are so wise, and i think the people you work with are blessed to have you (not to mention the rest of us).  millychloe Hey, just out of curiousity, have you noticed me to have a lisp while singing besides on these recordings? I'm trying to determine if it really is the bad mic or not. Have you heard me sing live?  login to comment hide comments and now for our feature presentation 05-26-08 08:29pm EST click here (14 older comments) two Thanks for your comment.  sugarcane Michael Hamilton is my nephew.

I love it.  sunnytab Yay, you're home safely! I still need faces for my book so if you're still interested let me know your schedule and we'll set it up!  heatherbrackeen i had to take down the disturbing (wait is that the word i want...yeah DISTURBING) cat pic you left on my blog. and YES a visit from you would be just what i need! (no sarcasm there hope you know, its hard to tell with me sometimes)  mountainmama Thanks so much for posting the pictures from Chad & Brittney's wedding! Brittney is my cousin, and I was sad I didn't get to go to her wedding.  sandyharboe Beautiful. Thank you for sharing  cellophane hey girl. I have created a group for the "icanhascheesburger" lovers of the world, but I've had to ask Kennon for help with the way I want the group to look. I want only the pictures to show up on the main page instead of a "subject line", and I don't know how to do that. Anyway, I'll let you know when it's up and running. :)  mrsfionacharming Those pictures are really good... I liked the house and the flowers were beautiful  pokyribble I love your pictures. Paris looks amazing, and the flower photos are beautiful!  chooselove I emailed u. Hope that's still ur current email address  wifelet Are you in Indiana??? And you didn't come see my big pregnant self?!?  wifelet No one told me ... Heather mentioned you were stopping through there on your way home, and I jumped to conclusions. It's a Jump ... to Conclusions Mat! :)  incognito Great to see you!  whipsmile i haven't clicked on those yet...I need to work out this jealousy thing before I can. :-)  redmartineau Thank you, very much.  kailua BTW Today is Nicole Mongeon's 23rd birthday!  lori_in_pa Thank you for adding me to your friends list.

This was really easy. Anyone could do it. There were actually a few stitches that I didn't know how to do, so I referred to the world wide web & there were videos showing how to do them.  betheboo You actually trace the pattern on to the fabric. You can't go wrong there.  betheboo I think my problem is that I sleep too much during the day. I'm not working right now, so my sleep schedule is all messed up  herofortheday Apparently you have confused the terms literacy and literary. I am not surprised, though, given that you like Tardcatz and all...  adamandjessesdad Blue cake! I bet everyone has scary mouths.  wifelet Ummm ... Saturday wasn't 5/27. Wanna try again? ;-)  wifelet I can think of much better things to do at 3 am ... :)  el_magnifico Great photos! Thank you!  samngloria Looks like a wonderful wedding. How was Paris?  login to comment hide comments the question is.... 05-24-08 08:25pm EST do you have YOUR towel picked out yet? godswarrior32803 Somehow I do not think that carrying a towel to the pulpit would win over the elders.  dwatkins Oooh. Maybe I'll preach about towels tomorrow!  got_newfs love your blurb picture!!  dragonwriter What gets wetter as it dries?  dragonwriter Well, you were the first one to answer so sure :)   71lespaulcustom 42.  login to comment hide comments 5 >>   25 >>   >>>
