They Got It From Their WHO?
Some people think Rachel and Lois are beyond help.
And yet – they’re asking for it.
Here’s their debut music video. Now they need a name for their group. My first suggestion of “Da Sistahs” was hooted down. My second suggestion of, “Get That Room Cleaned Before Our Company Gets Here” was no more well-received.
Feel free to comment a name for them. And know that they couldn’t have possibly gotten this from their hard-working, hymn-singing, somber Baptist mama.

A New Blog to Flip Over
Me’n'my Flip – Julia took this picture like 5 minutes ago. She is amazing to watch with anything electronic. Judy gave me my first camera – a blackn’white Brownie – for Christmas when I was nine. Times have changed. This coolcalmconnected blog is going to focus on that change and how to make technology work for the working mom. Good thing, because little enough else does some days.
Here’s the URL: http://calmcoolconnected.com/
And I need your help. Now c’mon. I don’t ask much of you. Oh, I might try to encourage you to make a box, or leave a holiday shopping comment- but that’s about it. So please lend me a cyber-hand.
Bookmark this new blog. Visit it a couple of times a week. Email the URL to your friends and ask them to visit. Leave some comments. And – when you have an idea for a blog post for it, ping me. Like, next week, I’m going to do a short segment on how to email text messages. So if there’s something you’ve wanted to do w/your cell phone, or with your computer, or with U-verse, or you just have a good idea for a blog – please share! I am not above stealing the good ideas of others.
The girls are going to be helping me, and they’re way more creative than I am. That’s a good thing, because I’ve got to post a blog a week to calmcoolconnected. Oh, the pressure!
So please:

Flippin’ Sweet
I have a new toy – a Flip camcorder. Yeah, it’s flippin’ sweet, as you can see from this footage I shot at church tonight. The Flip was my favorite price – $Free.99. How I got it is a story I’m going to tell very soon. So stay tuned. Because it’s a good one. But for now…..
Shearer Hills is one of two drop-off spots in San Antonio for Samaritan’s Purse boxes, and we were crating hundreds tonight for transport to the warehouse next week. if you’ve not made your box yet – there’s still time! C’mon – get busy! Christmas is coming, people.
Meanwhile, the kiddos were practicing down the hall for their Christmas program. Julia has reminded me of this program at least every other day for weeks because I might – you know – forget all about her being in it.
The adult choir was practicing, too. I find the view from the stage exhilerating. Before a skit rehearsal for Vacation Bible School two years ago, I fulfilled a lifetime dream of belting out, “Honky Tonk Angels” acappella while waiting for my fellow cast members. The mike was hot, the speakers loud, and boy it felt good. Rachel’s were among the few ears in attendance. She assured that because I’d sung those lyrics in the sanctuary, my post-death destination was not heavenly in nature.
