My son wants to send an Army of Stuffed Animals to Haiti - Please Help and Contact your Local Clergy!

First, please pray for John Marshall as he is under the weather with a cold.

Today, he said he wanted to donate his "gently used" stuffed animals to Haiti. He is very concerned about the people and children in Haiti. I mentioned that it would not be fair for some children to get teddy bears, and others, not.

I have created a "Teddy Bears for Haiti" group on Facebook. I would like to open this valiant mission up to all clergy, so they can rally the troops in their church, so that John Marshall'… Continue

They were thanking my for posting the tool, so I thought I would post it here at… Continue

We’re Always Multitasking, and That’s the Problem


Oh no, don't accuse me of multi-tasking just cause I brought out two blog posts in a short period of time. I am a not dedicated multitasker. I can listen to music and write this blog, but I can't tend to my cabbage, peas and the rest of my garden chores and tend to my email too. The problem is that if I turn to email then I have to change my frame of mind, refocus my attention.… Continue
