Not Fallen Off the Planet!

Gosh, with my trip last week to bible horsemanship camp and starting school this week, we are in semi-hyper drive and next week all the co-op classes start up (English, Drama, Music)--that will be MAJOR hyper-drive! Preparing for the women's retreat at the end of next week (I lead worship for that) will keep me distracted, too! :-)

But I haven't fallen off the face of the earth! I don't think I have ever gone this long without posting an entry to the blog.

My desire is to revamp this blog. I mean TOTALLY revamp, while keeping all the content accessible for those who may want to access "the journey" so far.

I know I said I was going to begin the HEAL study this week. I have decided to start it in October after I find my "equilibrium" a bit with my new schedule. If any of you want to join in or want to know more, here are some links for you:

• An interview with Allie Marie Smith (the co-author with Judy Halliday) can be found here
• A link at Amazon for the book HEAL (includes reviews) is here
• Allie's website is here
• Allie's blog is here
• Some discussion about the HEAL book at the Thin Within forums is here
  

In a nutshell, this book isn't likely to take more than 6 weeks for us and it is a light study. You could do other things at the same time--very unlike the Thin Within book or the Get Thin Stay Thin book--both of which are quite dense. Great stuff, but like one member at the forums said, "This is a Cliff notes version of TW." Could be, but presented a bit differently with a slightly different audience in mind.

I am shooting for the first Monday in October to begin reading/studying this book for the first time.

In the meantime, I plan on squeezing in time to do some work on this blog and to write some short (ha! ME? Write a SHORT entry?) entries about things God is teaching me. I hope you will join me. :-)
