"A house does not have to be perfect to be a home of joy, a child does not have to behave perfectly to love and be loved, and every moment of life does not have to be perfect to be of value. Too often, I realize, we fail to see the glorious reality of the simple joy that abounds in the seemingly mundane routine of day-to-day living. Instead, we tend to idolize the past, idealize the future, and devalue the present.... What better way to show our appreciation to Heavenly Father for what we have than to embrace our lives, albeit 'ordinary' and 'unexciting,' with joy?"

Craigslist

I'd just like everyone (not that anyone has the link to this blog) to know that I love Craigslist. I wish I could meet Craig and give him a hug. Never before has there been a better way to sell your unwanted crap to total strangers. It is genius. I feel sad for people who live in an area where Craigslist isn't a resource that is fully taken advantage of. Right now even, I'm waiting for some lady to come buy a bassinet I bought at Goodwill, new in the box-- a quick $35 profit for me and the bassinet she needs. It is a win-win for all parties involved. I ::heart:: Craigslist.
