~ I’m pretty sure Leviticus 13 isn’t anyone’s favorite chapter of the Bible: swellings, eruptions, leprosy, raw flesh, boils, burned flesh, itching, yellow hairs, spots, reddish-white diseased areas, diseased garments, rot… oh, my.

~ There are a few words in English that I really, really don’t like, but I’m not telling anyone what they are because whenever I’ve done that, they use them ALL THE TIME around me.

~ Colleges & universities are out of control with the luxury accommodations for students. I think a college student should live in such a way that he/she has incentive to finish school and get a job. But that’s probably just me.

~ The border (or lack thereof) issue is maddening. Our president wants to punish companies that go overseas, but he doesn’t care who comes into our country. So he favors borders that keep people in, but not out. Brilliant.

~ I’ve often identified with the famous quote, “So many books, so little time,” but this time I really mean it. There are so many books I want — NEED! — to read, and I’ve just been too stinkin’ busy.

~ The older I get, the more I marvel at how time flies. How is it August already? Actually, I’m hoping August speeds by because I’m getting married in September. 🙂

~ Dear, dear friends from Hawaii are coming to visit me today. I’m so excited!

Happy Friday y’all!
