The other day I prayed for a bug. I have to say, I've prayed for a lot of things in my life, but this was a first. I was sitting at my daughter's school waiting to pick her up when I saw a butterfly with a broken wing flopping around on the ground next to my car. It was trying its best to fly away but getting nowhere. I could just see the kids trampling on it or the cars running over it. So I prayed for it. Evidently, God chose not to answer my prayer right away, so I had no choice but to get out of my car and pick the poor thing up and move it to the grass. Hey, it was a pretty butterfly.

Once again, you can see how exciting my life is these days.

I'm reading a book by one of my favorite authors, Janet Evanovich. "Ten Big Ones". She is so funny! I'm talking laugh out loud funny. But if you are squeamish about bad language, these are not the books for you. If you can overlook that, I highly recommend all her books that have a number in the title. ("Visions of Sugarplums" is weird, though. I don't recommend that one.) I took a trip to the local used bookstore Friday. That's one of my all-time favorite things to do. Especially when I have books to trade. (I don't keep very many of my books. Unless it's something I'm going to want to loan out for people to read.) This bookstore is so big, you can find some really great books in the bargain books section, since they usually get so many copies of certain books. I got a book for .75 that has really made me laugh a lot. ("Even More Letters From A Nut") I've recently realized I don't laugh enough, so I'm trying to do something to change that.

I guess that's all I have for today. Time for bed.
