Jenn Engle I do try to limit my usage of electronics before bedtime. It usually works, but I have a bad habit of having the TV on, which is another electronic device that probably interrupts brain waves and makes it impossible to fall asleep! I really like having some...

Jenn Engle @Cristi_Ichim Yes, but also, I am fortunate enough to have a 20 year old son that lives in our attic and pays rent plus internet and partial utilities. So... yeah, I'm pretty lucky... still miss having my own income, but having time with my toddler trumps that...

In ancient times, during the month of May it was customary among Catholics to send an image of the Blessed Virgin in a little box that was passed from house to house. Those who received it were very proud to have it at home.

Jenn Engle Wow, having grown up Catholic, I am surprised that I never heard of this tradition. It sounds really neat and inspiring, maybe people of the Catholic faith will start doing this again someday... it would be appreciated by many in that faith, I believe.
