Valerie is a 42-year-old, single, Reformed Christian lady who lives in Baltimore. She doesn't remember a time
before she knew and loved Jesus, but she does remember accepting John Calvin into her heart in March of 2000.
Valerie is a member of Christ Reformed Evangelical Church in Annapolis.
Though her career aspiration is to be a housewife, Valerie has not yet found anyone suitable who wishes to hire
her for employment in that field (or, more properly, anyone suitable has not found her), so in the meantime she
earns her daily bread working in communications -- editing, writing, print design and website management.

Pair of Easy Spirit shoes that were mislabeled in the store so the clerk gave me that price: $14.99 (regular price: $49.99; actual sale price: $29.99)

Though she was feeling a little warm. I wonder if it wasn't me, but the bug that was going around. Hope you're feeling better soon, too!

But I'd trade shoes and mixer any day for a chance to hold a petite pink person, even if said person pukes! But it's more like dribbling at that age, eh?
Carol -- The particular pudgy person I ponder possesses the power of projectile puking. And yes, the shoes are rather comfy!

Oooh...this makes me all the more discontent that I am unable to accompany my husband and daughter on their Initial Inspection Tour of Grove City College (due to having four other children.) There's a Prime right outside Grove City. Not that I need a new Kitchenaid at all, but it's just salt in the wound. ;-)

He spilled his guts to my 16 year old of all people and cried in the dark the whole way to the airport. All the heticness was worth making him happy for a week. I hope they know how much we love them.

Everyone chose a stupid, fun something at the kitchen outlet. Now, when we use one of the items, it recalls the vacation! One of the boys got a 3x sized muffin pan. It gets the most use!
