Thank you all for the office suggestions from the last post. As of now, I have only made a few adjustments…
Life is always so much more fun when you can make a friend out of a weary plant.
These two were needed for their green. I miss Oregon.
Yes, I did make that coffee mug warmer purchase, but….I tend to drink the coffee before it needs a warmer, which means I end up with an uber-hot empty coffee mug.
While looking for office inspirations, I came across this post at positivesharing.com .
In other news, my first short-term group arrived two days ago. There are 32 students, about half are from Canada and the rest come from across the states. Jet-lagged and weary, they stumbled into campus yesterday. After a quick intro and campus tour, I handed them over to their instructor for two weeks of intense adventure in the history and geography of the Holy Land.
This is one of the videos I often show to demonstrate America’s influence in the Middle East.
Yesterday also saw the delivery of my first geeky purchase in years. I am now a proud owner of a kindle. My first read has been The Legends of King Arthur and his Knights by Sir James Knowles. Those of you in the e-book world, what have been your favorite reads? For those who still turn the paper page, what is a book you’ve read recently that is worth the money spent on it?

1. Yay for plants!
2. You should read Manalive! by G. K.
Chesterton, which I believe is free on kindle. And if you like that one, he has lots of other fun fiction.
3. I would also recommend Till We Have Faces by C. S. Lewis if you haven’t read it, but I’m not sure if it is on kindle.
