Taking It Easy

My vacation continues. We traded the nearly-freezing temperatures of Toronto for the beautifully-warm, 80 degree temperatures of Atlanta, and we have no regrets. It is beautiful down here this time of year – much more so than when we usually visit (December or July). If it was like this all the time, I would consider moving here!

I have been doing lots of reading and have finally caught up on book reviews. I am also doing some work while I’m here, and sitting in a small room with the windows and doors open, music blaring, has been as relaxing as if I was doing no work at all. Just because it is a working vacation, doesn’t mean I’m not enjoying it!

I will have a couple of new sites to post this week, and am excited about that.

And now I am about to head over to my sister and brother-in-law’s house for dinner – the first time we’ve been to their house since they got married last summer. It should be a good time!

  • Sex and Self-Forgetfulness

    Sex, Self-Forgetfulness, and the Joy of Serving Your Spouse

    I often think there is a kind of paradoxical quality to sex within marriage. It’s paradoxical in that few things have greater ability to bring blessing (through its right use) or to bring cursing (through its misuse). Not only that, but few things bring greater joy to a marriage, and also, in so many cases,…
