Journal
Danica’s top-secret journal. Okay, it’s not really top-secret, since it’s my blog, but ever since I got hooked on Nancy Drews as a kid, I’ve always been a sucker for top-secret stuff. 
NIV Real Life Devotional Bible for Women, Insights for Everyday Life Notes by Lysa TerKeurst
It is time for a FIRST Wild Card Tour book review! If you wish to join the FIRST blog alliance, just click the button. We are a group of reviewers who tour Christian books. A Wild Card post includes a brief bio of the author and a full chapter from each book toured. The reason it is called a FIRST Wild Card Tour is that you never know if the book will be fiction, non~fiction, for young, or for old…or for somewhere in between! Enjoy your free peek into the book! My Review I really liked how this Bible has an easy to follow reading plan. I...
read moreZ is for Zoo!!
You could take that one both literally and figuratively, because my world does often resemble a zoo. Certainly my schedule does! However, since I have some cute pictures, I’ll talk about the literal zoo. My family and I have memberships to the zoo and we love going there. I know some people don’t like seeing animals in cages, but I’m actually okay with it because I know the zoos are protecting species that may soon be gone. It makes me sad to see the diversity of life on our planet, and how it’s disappearing. Maybe I...
read moreY is for youth
One of my friends celebrated her 40th birthday Saturday night. This isn’t a terribly unusual thing for me because I tend to have older friends. And then I realized that 40 isn’t so far off for me. Where did the time go? As part of my friend’s birthday celebration, we went to a nightclub. Now, anyone who knows me will tell you that the nightclub scene has just never been my thing. But that’s what she wanted to do for her birthday, so we went. It was kind of weird, doing something that I didn’t do back when I was of...
read moreX is for Xenophile
Okay, I admit it, this is where my perfectionist rule-following tendencies just can’t be broken. I searched and I searched for a great X word without fudging or making one up. It’s a sickness. But, as you saw with my Q post, I am working on it. I love traveling and having new experiences. I love learning about new cultures and people who are different from me. I love trying new foods. In essence, I am a xenophile. Which is weird, because I hate change. So I guess I like experiencing new things, as long as I get to go back to my...
read moreW is for Writing Journey
I don’t always talk about my writing, at least not in online form, because sometimes there’s a blurry line between being a writer and working in the publishing industry. Plus, it’s a little weird given that as much as I’ve been in the business and know about the business, I’m still waiting on that elusive book deal. The waiting can be hard. I’ve learned a lot from waiting, but I can also say in all honesty, that I’m really done waiting. But that’s not for me to decide. In terms of the wait, agent...
read moreV is for Vegetables
Not as in, I am one, though to be honest, my brain feels like it is turning into one. Actually, today’s post is more of a wishful thinking post because I am DYING to plant some vegetables. But given that we seem to be getting snow every Tuesday this month so far, I don’t dare. I have a few peas and some lettuce planted, but that’s about it. Plus, I’m really concerned about the whole GMO vegetable thing, and I think that’s going to make finding some nice seedlings a little harder for me this year. Because I do want...
read moreU is for Uh…
Yeah, that. I wanted to write something about being unique. Only I don’t feel very unique and I don’t feel like I have anything unique to say. And then I thought about writing about things that are useful, only that felt boring to me. So then I thought writing about useless things would be fun, but then I thought that might come off as being too negative. I’m in a funk, and I suspect that what I think is a little negative will sound really negative to others since my filter is clogged. I could have written about unicorns. I...
read moreT is for Trust
I had another post about half-written. And I’m not using it. Because a few minutes ago, I checked my Twitter feed, and caught a snippet of a quote from someone else, and it did something in my heart. So I’m going with that. The funny thing is, when I clicked on that part of Twitter, I lost the quote, and for the life of me, I can’t find it. The gist of the quote was about trusting in the goodness of God. I’m dealing with a situation that really hurts right now. I talked to a friend about it today, and after she...
read moreQ is for Quick, pretend I didn’t skip Q
I’d like to give you all a clever reason, or even pretend that I planned it this whole time. But the truth is, I’d been thinking of a really cool Q post, and somewhere in my mind, I lost a day. I lose days a lot, mostly because I don’t leave my house to work. In fact, I only leave my house when I absolutely have to. I do what the calendar tells me, and even that’s not very efficient, because I still get my days mixed up. So there it is. The truth. I forgot my Q date. The worst part is, I’d been thinking of a very...
read moreS is for Salmon Faverolle
YES!! This is another post about my chickens! I am turning into the crazy chicken lady who tells everyone about her chickens and whips out pictures every chance she gets. I’m even thinking about getting a chicken purse. There may not be help for me. The Salmon Faverolle is my chick. Her name is Gwendolyn. Gwendolyn was sick early on with some kind of weird eye/respiratory thing, but we gave her visine, neosporin in the eye, and antibiotics in the water, and she seems to have pulled through with no ill effects. I was a little worried...
