Media Monday's

I'm linking up with Women Living Well with her Media Monday's. I know it's Tuesday but I just read her post from yesterday as well as one from Raising Mighty Arrows who is also linking up.


I don't know about most of you fellow bloggers but for me the computer and TV can be a great way to escape and most days for much longer that I ever plan on. Then there is also the mighty Blackberry that lets me know every email, facebook, twitter, text message that I get and I can get lost in that not to mention the endless apps and games that are available.


For the next 8 weeks I'm going to long my  hours that I'm on the computer. I'm going to first see how many hours I spend on it and then I'm going to put limits and restrictions on it. Having a business that is online can often get me distracted and even give me an excuse to be online. I have to keep working on things if I'm going to sell it to anyone else. They need to see what I'm doing but I need to change that to making sure it is healthy for myself and family.


So today I have been on here way to much. I'm going to finish this and then I'm turning my phone on silent (not off just in case the hubs needs to get a hold of me) and I'm going to go read the Bible and have my quiet time with the Lord while Rex is sleeping. Then I think we will head outside to the park after he is up so we can get some of that great Vitamin D and social interactions that require actually talking not just typing!


If you are interested in doing Media Monday's head over to Women Living Well and grab the button and link up and take the channel to look and see if media is affecting you family or your quiet time with God.

The League of Incredible Vegetables: Movie Review

Picture borrowed from  Christian Film Database Another movie review! I was so thrilled when I was walking through Best Buy before Christmas and saw this  DVD sitting on the shelf. If you are a boy mom like myself you know that they love super heroes. I struggle to find age appropriated super hero movies for Monkey to watch. He loves Spiderman, Batman, Iron Man, ect. and he has not seen any of the movies/shows that go along with them. Wait...he did watch The Avengers with Daddy one day while I was out. I haven't seen that one so I can't say what I think of it for a 3 year old. Anyway, I love Veggie Tale movies! I think that they do a good job of teaching lessons to kids in a way that they understand and I love the lessons they teach! This one is great because it is about fear and how if you trust God fear can't freeze you. If you have kids, especially boys this movie is great! It helps them get the superheros they want to watch without the bad guys th...

Y3W: I'm Not Perfect

I'm not perfect. I think you already know that as no one is perfect on this earth even though sometimes people can look like it on the outside. I do post many things about the good things going on in my life because I would rather talk about those then dread on the bad or negative things. However today I'm going to make sure you know that I'm not perfect by a long shot. Since about last Wednesday (so over a week now)I have been struggling. I haven't been doing great in my alone time in the Word, I haven't been praying like I was, I'm craving foods that I shouldn't and eating them instead of praying about it and have gained a few pounds back, I'm not doing great on the house work and I'm struggling in making the right decisions in my parenting as Monkey is entering into this new independent/I'm not listening stage. I know what has caused this struggle and I have been working on it but I have been doing alone and not letting God help me through...
