The rhythm and cadence of words and the art of putting them on paper, understanding generational differences, Weight Watchers, ideas, my co-workers, watching the lizards play, laughing heartily, Reformed theology (Go, Martin Luther!), sunrises and knowing that "my Father did that!" I want to go to the beach. Flying to different cities. Good food. i like cake. Bare Minerals, bracelets, my bed. I love my church! I love the grace of God!
Music
I like what I like. Old hymns set to new music. Jars of Clay and the Blind Boys of Alabama singing "Nothing But the Blood of Jesus!"
Hold Me, Kiss Me, Thrill Me by Mel Carter. (a 60s song--man, I'm old.)
Angela Vick singing, "Who would have thought that a Lamb could rescue the souls of men?"
Movies
You've Got Mail, Heathers, any sappy wife beater movie on Lifetime.
Television
Gilmore Girls, Law and Order: Criminal Intent. Love it when the detective goes sidewise--that's when it gets good. King of the Hill, King of Queens. Dr. Phil!! Dirty Jobs.
Books
Blue Like Jazz, The Ladies Auxiliary, My Faith So Far, Girl Meets God, Ragamuffin Gospel, Scandalous Freedom, Girl on a Swing.
:)
Heroes
Barry Kennedy--he can do the reindeer dance.
Jesus--he can wash away my sin.
Steve Brown--he can listen to me whine and not smack me upside my head.

About me: I'm such a mom. My kids (two adult daughters) are grown and gone, but once a mom always a mom. I live with my odd but lovable husband Barry of 30+ years; he does the reindeer dance and plays with his dancing hamster.
My day job is writing about old people, dead people and God for a newspaper. I love my job.
In my other life I write about God in books. My newest books are Girl on a Swing and Lipstick Grace. Buy them! Read them! Love them!
I grew up in California, but live in Florida in a small town, but we have a Super Wal-Mart, so how small can we be? And we have a Ruby Tuesday's--woo woo! And we might get a Target, but without groceries. Oh, well.
I crave colors that are "soothing on the eye" like sand, taupe, soft blue, ahhhhh.
I am a lifetime member of Weight Watchers. I like light blue jeans and soft cardigan sweaters -- and gelato.
I drive a Ford Focus wagon and like listening to talk radio.
I love my church! I didn't even graduate junior college, but I would like to go to seminary.
I wish I were a better friend to people. I wish I wasn't afraid to yell at people when I'm mad. I wish I loved deeply and extravagantly. I wish I could eat an entire pizza without getting fat.
I hate brussels sprout and think it's dumb that they're called "brussels." I think I spelled that wrong.
Oh yeah, I can't spell mayonaisse correctly, and if I do, it's accidental. Same with spelling ocassionally and Massachusetts and Connecticut.
I wish I could go back and right things I've wronged and go back in time and not do some of the stupid, hurtful things that I've done.
I like sweetener and milk in my coffee. My newest thing to eat is raw oatmeal, raisins, a packet of Splenda and some fat-free Cool Whip. Sad, huh?
I don't want people to think of me as a religious zealot, but as someone who knows that God is real.
I am constantly amazed that He has allowed me to do what I do, that I get paid to write about Him and that people read my words and are comforted or encouraged or enraged.
My greatest desire is that those I know will one day know what it is to stand in the light of God's smile.
I wish I were good and holy and pure, but I'm not. But I'm better than I was. Lately, I've been thinking about how bad a friend I am and it's not surprising that I don't have many friends. I know a lot of people, but not many real friends -- and that's MY fault.
I want to sell a million copies of my next book and be famous and rich, but since that's not very godly and all, I probably won't.
That's all about me, I guess.

Who I'd like to meet: Other than God, I'm not sure. I'll have to think about it.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, NANCY!!!! Hope you have the BEST of birthday's. Enjoy the cake and ice cream and have a great day with family and friends....Blessings to you always...a former Inverness resident....Libby Spires
Just got a call from God, He said he lost an angel.. Shhh, I didn't tell him where you were, because I wanted to keep you forever :) Send this to all of your True Friends including me if I am one. I sent an angel to watch over you last night, but it came back. I asked, "Why?"... The angel said: "Angels don't watch over angels!" If one day you feel like crying, call me. I don't promise that I will make you laugh, but I can cry with you. If one day you want to run away, don't be afraid to call me. I don't promise to ask you to stop, but I can run with you. If one day you don't want to listen to anyone, call me. I promise to be there for you but also promise to remain quiet. But one day if you call and there is no answer, come fast to see me. Perhaps I need you. Send this to all your friends, no matter how often you talk or how close you are and send it to the person who sent it to you. Let old friends know you haven't forgotten them, and tell new friends you never will. Remember, everyone needs a friend. Twenty angels are IN Your World. Ten of them are sleeping. Nine are playing. One is reading this comment. . . Send this to ten friends, including me. and include your phone number so your friends can actually call you .
If You ever need to call me you can reach me at 513-304-4340 .
Nancy, I loved the homeless blog and it so touched my heart. Just like being with you at Heaven's Garden as I sat in on your interviews with the ladies there.
