Yup!, no rice and no coffee for 40 days for me and I'm on day 19, then it's 21 days more to go. Since I made it this far I know I can make it. :)

imsilver wow. Way to go. The rice maybe but there is no way I could go without coffee for 4 days nevermind 40 of them. Why are you going without the rice? Coffee, I can kind of understand but the rice I don't.

A sensory garden is full of wonders and delights for the five senses. Start with a pond, bench and shade tree. Add wind chimes, rain bells, a waterfall and a fountain for soothing sounds. For pleasing sights, plant water varieties...

imsilver That sounds so nice. One day when I have my own place that I can work with I'll have something like that in my back yard. Right now I settle for going for a 20 minute walk to the riverbank and do my relaxing there. Your description sounds so lovely. You've...

It's funny how one could regard a dog as his or her bestfriend instead of another human being. Indeed dogs are one of the most adorable creatures God has created. They are exceedingly loyal and faithful. I can confidently say...

imsilver The same thing that motivates almost everything else in my life - my children. I like to earn money on here and i don't cash it out until closer to Christmas time or near their birthdays. It just gives me a bit of extra money to spend on them :)

imsilver I find that I just can't enjoy a book on an e-reader. It's just not the same thing. Also, I do alot of reading soaking in a tub and I'm afraid the readers just are good for that. Lol.

imsilver Jeffery Deaver is an amazing author. All of his books are really good. If you like his books you might also like books by Lee Child or Robert Parker. They are the same style of writings. Not always necessarily a murder mystery but they are mysteries that are...
