By Kelsey Elmore, Founder, MissionFit
I once heard a pastor say, "Our stories are worth sharing". So here is mine.
I fell in love and married "the fitness guy". He was a pro MMA fighter at the time, but fitness had always been a significant part of his life. His next chapter in life, once we were married, was personal training. Soon enough, I followed in those fitness footsteps and became a trainer myself. Over time we opened a few gyms and watched them grow.
At first, being a trainer was a cool job for me. I loved coaching. I loved helping people.
Quickly, though, I began to have a heightened awareness of people's health. You know like when you never notice the white jeeps on the road, but then your best friend purchases one and suddenly you start to notice them everywhere. It refocuses your view. That's what happened to me with health and wellness.
I began to see how poor-health negatively affects the day-to-day lives of so many including Christians. I began to see the reality of the Bible verse:
The thief comes to steal, kill and destroy.
I began to see the desperate need.
Over the last decade, that "cool job" has turned into a passionate mission. It's a mission to restore physical health to people so they can live the full life God desires for them.
This is the story of my mission: MissionFiT
MissionFiT is a ministry that restores health to people so they can live life to the fullest. Our vision is to restore the physical health of Christians so they can thrive in life and joyfully live the mission they have been given to complete while here on earth. We are an ecumenical organization based in Charlotte, North Carolina. Jesus message to give us full life is our heartbeat.
Here at MissionFiT, our "FiT" has a deeper meaning than simply physical fitness.
We are to be faithful in training in every way. God calls us to love with everything including our strength. In order to love God with all our strength, we need to train our bodies to be strong. That physical strength enables Christians to live out the Great Commission. We see these ways to love as ways to train. Being faithful in physical training helps us to be fit for His mission to disciple others. To serve God and others with your gifts and talents, you need physical health and strength.
The stats are saying no. The current reality is that many people in the US and globally are experiencing worse health symptoms than ever according to the CDC and World Health Organization. Seventy percent of Americans are overweight, 37.2% are obese and these numbers continue to rise. Depression, autism, alzheimer's, cancer, heart disease, and diabetes are at an all-time high and predicted to get worse.
Since I work with churches, one statistic that grieves me the most is that, "45% of pastors experience depression or burnout to the extent that they need to take a leave of absence." (Preventing Ministry Failure)
Many don't know how to exercise and eat well. So their body is not be able to withstand the demands of their spiritual calling. Many think they don't have time for fitness and good nutrition. Many pastor and church leaders believe they don't deserve it. They believe that taking time to work out is selfish. They have similar attitudes when it comes to buying healthier and sometimes more expensive food. The misinformation and fads surrounding fitness, especially in America, lead to frustration and lack of true transformation.
However, it's biblical to steward your body as a temple for God in a healthy way. You are not your own. You need to walk in the spirit and enjoy good health!
A movement for change is needed. However, it's not an easy fix. It takes time and it requires a strategic plan rather than just some simple product to accomplish the mission. It's a process of awareness, education, motivation, equipping, accountability and support. I love to use the terms, God desires for us to 'live out' our mission, not 'tap-out' of our mission. Good health makes you feel well and improving your ability and will to serve. It frees you to use your God-given gifts.
We have specific initiatives to care for church leadership. Pastors, assistant Pastors and lay leaders these days are more stressed than ever and often need more intensive care. With a program built specifically for this subgroup we are able to make significant progress. These leaders need:
- Awareness of how stress affects the body and soul
- Own the value of stewarding their temple with excellence
- Training on how to cope and manage stress with success
- Clearly laid out Pastor Care Plan
- An outlet for execution, including a small fitness group convenient for them
- Accountability and routine support
Through our Restart the Heart Workshops, people learn the connection between faith and health as well as the application. The community walks home with:
- A clear understanding of the connection between faith and health
- A personalized nutrition plan
- A wealth of knowledge on wellness
- A fun fitness experience with a tool for home use
- Attainable goals set
- A plan for action and accountability
- Motivation for change

My illustration of New Year in Sydney was selected for the week "Fireworks" in the 52 week illustration challenge.
Did you find a botjoy? Check this. Encontraste un botjoy? Pincha aquí.
I learnt about BotJoy last summer by following WDS online. And I inmediately fell in love with them.
Joy Bots are little pieces of art painted on dominos, "programmed" to bring you joy, courage, confidence, help and more.
Luckily, Gary Hirsch, the creator of this amazing idea, provided details on how to make your own and even to "Steal his idea"!!
So I did. I created one for me… then for my kids… then for friends… and now maybe for YOU! 🙂
THANK YOU Gary for letting me be part of the international BotJoy revolution!
http://www.botjoy.com #botjoy @botjoy @ghirschbotjoy
You will be able to follow in my Twitter, Instagram and Facebook accounts where I leave the bots. As I frequently travel around Spain, it could be Madrid, Barcelona, Sevilla, Badajoz, Valladolid, Salamanca, Bilbao… potentially anywhere 🙂
Also if you think you know of somebody that could benefit from a robot in Spain (hospital, kids with special needs associations, etc.) please let me know and let's find a way to get them some bots. 🙂

Private Stuff Bag | Gray Scarf | Polka Dot Water Bottle | Travel Size Ultra Repair Cream | Gray + Cream Striped Socks | Clear Blush Pouch | Passport Case | Moisturizing Lip Balm | Headphones | Travel Size Facial Spray | Makeup Remover Wipes | No. 8 Hair Stuff Pouch | Sleep Eye Mask
As of now, K and I are officially back from our honeymoon and I have successfully packed and [somewhat] unpacked from our Hawaiian getaway. I may or not have started this post in April during my few week hiatus, but that is simply my type A personality taking over. I figured that compiling a 'travel essentials' post would also serve as a packing guide. With that, I could simultaneously check one more item off of my wedding to-do list. You say silly, I say efficient. 😉 It worked, too!
I hate to admit, but I am unfortunately quite the over-packer. Prior to packing I actually lay out anything + everything that I think I need. Then, I narrow down those items based on what will fit into my luggage. In theory I thought I would end up flaunting brand new maxi dresses every day of our honeymoon. In all seriousness I was beach bummin' in a bikini all week. The same goes for my carry-on tote. Once reality sets in it is quite simple to squeeze all of my travel essentials into a dainty handbag.
For my carry-on bag I usually try to stick to a tote that is easily accessible. I brought along this tote (accented with my new initials, of course) by Gigi New York for Hawaii, but this one is nearly identical and under $50! I have two Truffle pouches which I keep front and center: one for organizing K and I's passports, boarding passes, + other important paperwork and a second for all of my liquids. This Truffle Clarity Clutch is TSA approved so it could not be more perfect to throw in your carry-on.
I try to keep my beauty products in my carry-on to a minimum. I have read the rules over and over and over again, but I am still terrified of having them confiscated #goodytwoshoes. If I spend a pretty penny on a toner it better be sticking with me and not the lovely ladies and gentlemen of airport security. However, I do keep a moisturizer, lip balm (this is my favorite from the drugstore + hands down the best), and facial mist with me at all times… just be sure they are travel size!
Traveling can be rough on your skin. I have found that using these three products when traveling helps keep my icky dryness away. If I am traveling on a longer flight (a.k.a. one where I put away the books and bring out the zzzz's) I use these makeup wipes prior to snoozing for a fresh face.
As for attire, I keep my outfit plain + simple. I have never quite understood why some choose to dress to the nines for a flight. Unless, of course, they have an important date immediately following landing. I on the other hand, prefer to stick to a simple tee and scarf, leggings, and shoes I can easily slide on and off to breeze through security. How cute are these espadrilles with flamingos?! K and I were actually the embarrassing couple that matched at the airport wearing our snazzy new 'wifey' and 'hubby' tees.
I always bring a scarf with me to the airport because it is so versatile. It may keep me warm, but also serve as a little pillow. Plus, you wouldn't look wacky flaunting a scarf in the summer (this one is super fun) with a casual tank. I always pack a pair of fuzzy socks in my carry-on as well since I am that girl that is always chilly!
Lastly, I always pack a water bottle on board with me. Just be sure to fill it after you survive your way through security. I attempt to drink 100 ounces of water per day and this definitely helps! Those petite beverage cups do not quite suffice. Plus, keeping hydrated will also help maintain a lovely glow to your skin whilst traveling. Win win!
What are your travel essentials?!

All That Remains has been a force to be reckoned with since 2000, releasing albums that sit on the unstable border of Rock and Metal and stirring up conversations about genre limitations. More recently bold and daring frontman Phil Labonte has been making headlines about controversial views on Gays and Blacks and the differences of struggle. Regardless of whether you agree with his views, you probably admit All That Remains is stirring things up and working their way up the pedestal in Hard Rock and Metal; In the end it should all be about the music anyway. The new brave and bold Heavy Metal release "The Order of Things" is definitely a well played and highly talked about album in 2015, creating bridges and burning them all over again.
If you frequent this site and blog, you are aware of my displeasure with Mainstream Rock and Metal these days, and also my disappointed feelings towards American Metal. It is odd for me to review such a high profile Radio Friendly Heavy Metal album, but I have my reasons for reviewing "The Order of Things". All That Remains has drifted from their original Melodic Death Metal roots and become more Mainstream, which displeases me a bit. However, the band has made it work and has created a unique identity that sets them apart. This daring feat has lead me to respect this band and what they work for with their music and I wanted to review this album as fairly as possible.
"The Order of Things" is a surprisingly diverse and well executed Heavy Metal album. The album mixes Mainstream Lyrical themes (relationship based story songs) and Melodic Technical Guitars featuring well done solos. The guitar work is what hugely separates this band from the boring and monotone Metal being played on the radio, in my opinion. I find the guitars layered nicely and dynamic with different sounds and styles. The vocals are pretty well done, although a bit weak on some songs. The heavy and powerful instrumentation sometimes overshadows the vocals and sounds unbalanced. I particularly noticed this on Bite My Tongue and The Greatest Generation. Otherwise, the vocals are well done and very relatable on For You and Flat Empire. My favorite part of the vocals however is the growls and the heavier style on this album. No Knock is definitely my favorite track on the album, because of the guttural growls done on the track. True-Kvlt Metal is also a huge standout on this album and keeping it to a likable level of heaviness. I liked some tracks more than others, mostly because of personal preference, but I think all people will find their favorite tracks on this album.
Overall, I think this is a pretty good and strong effort All That Remains. Every track is diverse from others, meaning the album is more about individuality than a succinct style. However, the album is pretty straight forward Heavy Metal and doesn't really differ much from other bands in the genre. The lyrics are also difficult to connect with for me, but I know that's not the case for thousands of fans. I would like All That Remains to refine the clean vocals and introduce a lot more power as well as branch out into other styles. Personally, this album will not hold up in 2015 due to so much more powerful and heavy releases and I will not end up buying this one.
Overall Rating 6/10- Although this album is good, especially for Mainstream Metal/Rock, I think it will soon be forgotten and overshadowed. It lacks any truly great and catchy aspects.

Funny how the one girl that is always insulting insulted you. She is a "special" girl. I knew if she answered this question she would jump on you and say you don't have J Lo's or Beyonce's body. Ignore her and don't be nice to her as you already have. Your body is fine and if you think it looks similar to theirs then it does.11|00|0

Drawing on the latest research from the fields of psychology, neuroscience, and biology, writer and broadcaster Claudia Hammond explores the mysteries of our perception of time in her book Time Warped.
Why does life seem to speed up as we get older? Why does the clock in your head move at a different speed from the one on the wall? Why is it almost impossible to go a whole day without checking your watch? Is it possible to retrain our brains and improve our relationship with it?
In Time Warped, Claudia Hammond offers insight into how to manage our time more efficiently, how to speed time up and slow it down at will, how to plan for the future with more accuracy, and she teaches how to use the warping of time to our own benefit.

A few weeks ago I wrote about how difficult it must be for Jim Harbaugh and his brother John Harbaugh to be dealing with playing each other in the Super Bowl. I even brought up a few anecdotes about how I used to deal with my brother when it came to sports and our foolish pride while competing against one another in an effort to describe what they were going through.
All evidence, both before and after the game, pointed to the Harbaugh's being extremely civil to one another during the entire process but perhaps things aren't always as they appear. Baltimore Ravens Super Bowl winning coach John Harbaugh told The Late Show with David Letterman that he still hasn't spoken to his brother since the Super Bowl.
While that may shock some of you, I believe it's very rational behavior from two incredibly competitive people. When the Dallas Cowboys lost to the New York Giants in the 2007 playoffs, I didn't talk to my brother for over a month, and we weren't directly involved in any way except for pride! I didn't want to talk to my brother and hear about the game and I'm guessing there was little else he wanted to talk about, so I didn't see the need to talk. The game was still fresh in my mind and talking to my brother at the time just seemed phony to me so avoided speaking to him.
It was the best way I could deal with the loss and I'm guessing that's probably what is going on with the Harbaugh brothers now. My brother knew to give me space and John Harbaugh knows his brother Jim needs some space too. It's not like they won't ever talk again but it takes time to get over it, especially when you lose such a big game.
The silence will come to an end at some point and I don't see anything wrong with how either brother has handled the situation. As the saying goes, 'this too shall pass.'

Star Wars: The Old Republic
Ok, decided to make a little topic about this game. Anyone here knows about it/has it?
I bought it 2 days ago and it's defenately worth buying. In the game you have access to 8 totally different stories, each class holds a different storyline, explore the whole galaxy planet by planet, epic space battles and of course ultimate pvp battles. You also have ability to play the storyline with bunch of friends, if you invite them to join you. The game itself is just epicness, I'm only level 10 and addicted already so much.
Discuss :>

Editor's Note: Last week I wrote a blog post that touched on the relationship between fact and fiction in Sony's controversial film, The Interview and in another film from 75 years ago, Orson Welles' Citizen Kane. This week I am honored to present this guest post by Alton Gansky, an accomplished author of more than 40 books and the director of the Blue Ridge Mountains Christian Writers Conference. Gansky also examines the relationship between fact and fiction, this time in the classic movie, Inherit the Wind. I think you will enjoy his perspective.
By Alton Gansky
In January of 2015, Baker Books will release my latest nonfiction work, 30 Events That Shaped the Church. It comes on the heels of the 2014 release, 60 People Who Shaped the Church. Some are surprised to learn that I write book-length nonfiction. True most of my books are novels but I also enjoy and see great value in producing nonfiction books as well.
While preparing 30 Events I went through a long list of possible topics. In the end, one chapter caught my attention and so infiltrated my mind that I'm still researching it long after I turned the manuscript in. As I worked through the centuries I came upon a week long event that most of us have heard of but few of us know much about: The Scopes "Monkey" Trial of 1925. When I research I try to keep my mind free of bias, which is a difficult thing to do. Still, I thought I knew a fair amount about the "Trial of the Century." I didn't.
Part of my preparation was to watch an old movie (1960), based on an older stage play by Jerome Lawrence and Robert E. Lee, Inherit the Wind. I remember it being one of the best movies ever made, made all the more memorable by actors like Spencer Tracy and Fredric March, as well as Gene Kelly (no dancing in this movie), and Dick York (later of Bewitched fame) who portrayed John T. Scopes (Bertram T. Cates in the movie). This time, I watched the movie with a critical eye and was surprised how far they had strayed from the truth.
To be fair, Lawrence and Lee, as well as director Stanley Kramer, went out to their way to alert viewers that they were watching a movie, not a documentary. The movie begins with these words:
"Inherit the Wind is not history. The events which took place in Dayton, Tennessee, during the scorching July of 1925 are clearly the genesis of this play. It has, however, an exodus entirely its own. [. . .] So Inherit the Wind does not pretend to be journalism. It is theatre."
I appreciate the honesty of the writers. Still—and this is the problem with some types of fiction—many took the events as historical fact. To this day, people who have seen the movie think:
William Jennings Bryan was a glutton. (He was a diabetic on a very strict diet at the time of the trial.)
Clarence Darrow crushed Bryan's beliefs as the latter sat in the witness stand. (Darrow ridicule people of faith but it had no impact on Bryan.)
That Bryan was a buffoon. (He ran for president three times, was a great orator, served as Secretary of State, and was a gifted writer).
That the townspeople of Dayton wanted to hang Scopes from a tree. (Nothing of the sort happened.)
And that Bryan died in the courtroom, the victim of Darrow's grueling examination and ridicule of biblical stores. (Bryan died five days later from complications of diabetes. He remained active in the days following the trial.)
When I was in college, my psychology professor told the class that the human mind has trouble distinguishing between reality and fiction. It is the reason we jump in scary movies or tear up reading a sad scene.
All of this to say, that we as author's of fiction need to take care how we represent figures and events in history. Lawrence and Lee went so far as to change the name of the characters (although they also went out of their way to make the actors look like William Jennings Bryan and Clarence Darrow). Despite their efforts, fifty-four years after the movie (longer for the play the preceded it) people still think the movie is trustworthy history.
This realization puts a burden of responsibility on the shoulders of novelists. While the novelist's goal is to entertain, we in the Christian market also want to edify and to do so we need to be as accurate as we can be when portraying real people.
William Jennings Bryan's reputation and work was sullied by the play and later the movie, despite the authors' and director's efforts to make clear their story was only loosely drawn from the real 1925 court case. Nonetheless, many have taken the fiction and see it as fact.
We novelist take some needed liberties in our creation, but when it involves real people from the past (or worse, vaguely disguised characterizations of living people), then we run the risk of doing harm.
Alton Gansky has written over 40 books of fiction and nonfiction. His latest work 30 Events That Shaped the Church: Learning from scandal, intrigue, war, and revival releases mid January 2015. He is also the director of the Blue Ridge Mountains Christian Writers Conference. www.altongansky.com – See more at: http://altongansky.typepad.com/writersconferences/2014/12/the-need-for-factual-fiction.html#sthash.dBW1l0nG.dpuf

What do you get when you combine cats, bad grammar, cheesy pictures, and more cats? If you answered "hell," you'd be correct as far as I'm concerned. Unfortunately, the real answer is that you'd get this:
LOLcat Bible: In teh beginnin Ceiling Cat maded teh skiez an da Erfs n stuffs.
I'm all for new translations of the Bible that help people engage God's Word in new ways….but this? Please make it stop. My eyes are starting to bleed.
If you'd like more information on the project, you can check out the LOLcat wiki. But I don't recommend it. I clicked on the link and my head exploded. Now I can't find my teeth.
Fortunately, we have some academic support to help us navigate these shoal waters. As James McGrath points out, both Daniel Kirk and Matthew Crowe offer some perspective on this new "translation." Sadly, Matthew appears to like it, suggesting that he has actually been possessed by an alien parasite that has taken over his higher critical functions. We should pray for him.
Update: We should probably pray for Daniel Kirk as well. Apparently he actually read this. So, I'm assuming that he is currently experiencing complete neural failure. I hope he wasn't driving at the time.

Hello, dear friends and blog readers! I haven't been sure how to write this post, so I've been avoiding posting it for quite some time. My 2nd blog birthday has just passed, and it got me thinking about blogging. I've decided to wrap things up here at The Swirling Spoon. Why? Blogging for me isn't providing the same enjoyment it used to. I feel at once like I've giving up something that I've . . .
Gingerbread layer cake / Christmas in July
Yeah, it's chilly. Well, sort of. I mean, not to brag, but we never reeeeally get that chilly here in Brisbane. We get sunshine and brisk mornings and the opportunity to wear socks from time to time. Winter suits us. It's our best season. I've been in two minds about whether to post this cake, because I made one glaringly obvious mistake, and I'm embarrassed about it. It's my trees... my . . .
Mandarin poppy seed layer cake with cream cheese frosting
Last night I headed to a PepTalk with Josie. The highlight was Lara Nobel's talk. She's an architect, carpenter and all round boss lady who, along with her boyfriend and carpentry trainer, designed and built a Tiny House . It was fascinating hearing her explain the design concepts behind the house and how different it is from a caravan! It is so great to see the tiny house idea burgeoning right . . .
Brown butter blueberry muffins
Friends, there are two exciting things to talk about today! You may have noticed I have given the old Swirling Spoon a bit of a needed facelift. If my history of blog-design-changing is anything to go on, give me another year and I'll be changing it yet again... but for now, I'll keep visiting my own website multiple times per day just to gaze at all the beautiful white space. More importantly, . . .
Waffled olive oil banana bread
I've been having the worst run of cake baking lately, so I've decided to just start waffling my cake batter instead. After all, buttermilk waffles pretty much contain the same ingredients as cake, maybe with some differences in quantities, but they're both essentially a party consisting of eggs, sugar, flour and butter/oil. Aren't they? Waffle purists... if you don't like where this is going, . . .
Mango coconut bread
IT'S MANGO SEASON. Have you have had the joy of biting into the sweet flesh of a tropical mango? It is the thing I look forward to most every summer. After buying and devouring my first mango of the season, I started thinking... why would I make my weekly batch of banana bread when I could use pureed mango instead? There are many examples of fruit purees other than bananas being used in . . .
Crumble-top pumpkin bread
The weekend just gone was the best kind of weekend. It involved: my weekly tennis lesson, baking gingersnap brownies and decorated ginger cookies for Socktoberfest, going to Socktoberfest, drinking a lot of home-brewed bocks and eating a lot of pork knuckle and sauerkraut, and being well enough the next day to do some spring cleaning and thanking my past self for freezing some slices of this . . .
Upside down tangelo yoghurt cake
What do you do when life Hayley the magnificent gives you lemons four kilos of tangelos from the farm? You eat a couple over the sink (cuz they're super juicy... the juice goes ALL over the kitchen :)), then you make upside down cake, and then you make a big batch of marmalade, and then you look over at the fruit bowl and it's like you hardly used up any tangelos at all. I suppose I could make . . .
Peanut butter pound cake
Ah, the struggle to make a good pound cake is real. You want a fine, dense crumb, but any attempt at achieving that often leads to just a dry cake, and no matter how much butter and sugar you stood there creaming until your arm hurt, how many eggs you spent $$ on, how much love you tried to put into the cake, all you have is a dry cake. And even a glorious salted peanut butter frosting, like the . . .
Portuguese orange + olive oil cake
In a sky of clearest blue, there was a white trail of an aeroplane, fine and straight, not a sound and only my eyes to trace its slow passage. I took my first breath of salty Lisbon air as we stepped out of the shade of Santa Apolónia Station. On one side of me, a low, stone barrier following the road announced the nearness of the sea. On the other side, buildings seemed to topple down a hillside, . . .

Building muscle is tough! There's no two ways about it. You can spend months hitting the gym every day, and you still won't see the progress you want. The problem: it's not an exact science, so it's tough to know how to build muscle. What works for one person may not work for the other, so you need to work with your specific body type and be willing to experiment a little.

How Long Does It Take To Build Muscle?
Building muscle can be a time consuming task. The amount of time it takes for each person to build muscle will vary depending on a number of factors. Some of these factors you can't control, such as genetics. Some guys (and gals) can build muscle with a lot less effort than others, the same if true for fat loss.

Explore the subject of leading spiritual formation within the church and see how it differs from the spiritual formation of individuals. You'll discover skills for influencing the spiritual formation of others whether in church, small groups, mentoring relationships, or even in marriage. Find how Christ's spirit transforms people in group relationships that can never be accomplished in a one-on-one environment.
Publishers Description
Into a culture that prizes individualism above all things, Keith Drury issues a call for believers to return to their roots the church. This hard-hitting book challenges American Christianity's preoccupation with privatize religion and boldly asserts that we become holy only together as the Bride of Christ. In the author's words "We have plenty of spiritual fingers and spiritual ears and eyes, but God longs for a whole church a body that is spiritually mature."
This book is not to read alone It is for the church, and it is best read with a group. There are scores of books on the personal spiritual disciplines but few on the corporate spiritual disciplines: the spiritual disciplines of the church. From public prayer, to preaching, fellowship, and the Lord's Supper, Drury convincingly shows the value of corporate spiritual practices and offers practical tips for transforming the spiritual dynamic of a local church or small group.

Today I'm closing out the house tour with my little bedroom. It's chock-full of a bed that's too big for the space, a dresser that's been gnawed on by my dog, too much art, and a dog crate that's kind of an eyesore but Finn likes it, so it stays. Hope you enjoy 🙂
This is what the room looks like from the door. There's one decent sized window that I accentuate with some big curtains that I purchased years ago from Ikea. I love their sheer, breezy effect and the geometric pattern. I've never been one that needed blackout curtains- there is something nice to me about the sun spilling into your room in the morning. The bed is a sleigh bed, which I really don't need. I could probably save about 6 inches if I switched to a flat headboard and no footboard, but I really like the lines of the sleigh bed and it cost me $Free.99, so it's tough to part with.
There's kind of an orange/blue thing happening, which isn't shocking because that's one of my favorite color combinations. The color inspiration started with the duvet cover, which was an incredible Pottery Barn sale find. The Euro shams came along a few years later- a lucky find from West Elm that just happen to match the color of the duvet. The blue patterned throw pillow is from HomeGoods, the sequined pillow is from the West Elm outlet, and the handpainted nightstand is from El Paso Import Co. in Dallas.
Side note: I make my bed almost every morning. If I don't make my bed in the morning, I make it as soon as I get home from work. This is one of my most annoying compulsions. My sister would disagree and tell you that my hair-twiddling is my most annoying compulsion. In response to this, I would continue to twiddle my hair while glaring at her. (We love each other, I promise.)
The gallery wall came together with some pieces that I've collected over the years that include the blue/orange color combo. The Texas print is from We are 1976 in Dallas, the Museum of Contemporary Art LA print is a lucky hand-me-down from my stepdad, the black and white botanical screenprints are from Target, the the totem pole (made out of cartoon animals, though it's hard to see in this pic), is also from We are 1976.
This is the view looking back at the doorway. The dresser, now accented with Finn's signature chew-marks, is also from El Paso Import Co. The Peter Pan print is a souvenir from my family's beach trip to Seaside, Florida last summer, and was purchased from Central Square Records. If you ever find yourself in Seaside- please visit this store. I never wanted to leave! The dog crate really is not my favorite thing to look at, but Finn likes to hang out in there while I'm folding laundry, getting dressed, or taking bad iPhone pictures of my room for the blog (you can see a bit of him in this photo.)
Here's some little thingies hanging around my room. From left to right- some family pics, a lamp from Ikea's clearance section, my framed graduation announcement (so much cuter than a diploma…), one of my grandpa's old cigar boxes filled with my grandmother's handkerchiefs, and some dried roses that Matt gave me for our anniversary. In the middle- my precious tiny clogs, a souvenir from Matt's trip to Amsterdam last year. On the right- my nightstand with a yummy ginger candle, my bracelets/rings, and a glass-blown heart from my mom and stepdad's rehearsal dinner (their rehearsal dinner was in a glass-blowing studio.)
So that's my room! It's not exactly the serene, tranquil oasis that many people achieve with their bedrooms, but it is filled with things that I love, which is why I like it. Thank you for joining me on this house tour!

Professional sport should be banned
Now it's the turn of tennis, and I can't say I'm surprised. The money's too tempting, the egos too inflated.
If I were king for a day I would ban all professional sport.
It's the source of massive corruption.
Millions of dollars are spent on shortlived vanity projects by governments looking to boost misplaced national pride or the personal status of certain foul dictators or regimes.
With their narcissistic behaviour and obscene spending habits, sports superstars are the worst role models for young people and impressionable adults.
"Professional sport"? The phrase itself is a contradiction in terms.

10 Ways to Save Money Every Month
© arinahabich – stock.adobe.com
- Save Your Coins – Place your change in a jar. At the end of the month count it up and then deposit it into your account.
- Couponing – You know that I love to coupon. I even own a couponing site to help others learn to coupon. I've gotten many items for free or almost free from couponing. Two summers ago I got 35 cases of bottled water for FREE. If you want to start couponing or are already a couponer and what some tips, head on over here.You can maximize your savings if you stack your coupons with items when they're on sale.
- Save Your Overtime – Overtime is income that you shouldn't expect. It can go away at any time. Place any money that you make in overtime pay into your savings account. You won't miss that income because it's income that you weren't expecting.
- Round Up Your Checkbook – My mom taught me this. Instead of writing that you spent $13.67 at the grocery store, round it up to $14, $15 or even $20. Round up to a number that you feel comfortable with. Rounding $13.67 to $20 might be a little extreme, but if you're able to go for it.
My mom does this method and last year when my stepdad lost his job they were able to use the money that she saved over the years from rounding up. They were able to use that saved income for almost 6 months until he found a new job.
- Pack Your Lunch – By packing you're lunch everyday you're able to control your spending and what your options are. Instead of spending $7, $8 or $10 everyday on your lunch, pack it.Having your kids pack lunch everyday can help you save money too.I don't know the prices of your kids' school lunch, but at my girls' schools they range from $2.25 to $3.00. I have 3 kids in 3 different schools so even if lunches are $2.50 all around, that's $7.50 a day for their lunches. That comes out to $37.50 per week for their lunches. I can pack their lunches for a lot cheaper than that and the best part is I am able to choose what they eat. My girls' don't eat half of what the school serves each day so this way they have a choice in my they can pack.
- Quit Your Bad Habits – Whether its coffee every day during your morning commute , getting your nails done twice a month or evening smoking, it's time to ditch the habit. How much you spend each time you "feed" your habit? Now multiply that by 30. How much are you spending a month? Think of how much you could save!I understand that some habits are tougher to quit than others, but try.
My husband smoked cigarettes for over 25 years and one day last year he decided to just up and quit. Best decision for his health. He has this app on his phone that tells him how much he's saved since quitting. We're up to a savings of over $2800 just from him quitting his habit.
- Thrift Stores – Thrift Stores are actually trending in my area. They have amazing deals especially on clothing. You can pick up brand new jeans for $5. No one will ever know that the outfit you are wearing is from a thrift store…unless you tell them.
- Avoid the ATM – By avoiding the ATM you'll be saving on service fees from your bank and the also the bank that owns the ATM.
- Make a Grocery List – If you make a grocery list, you're more likely to not buy a lot of extras that are not on your list. Especially if you plan on couponing, list will become your best friend.
- Cut Back on Your Bills – Cable and Satellite television services can be very expensive. We had DirectTv for about two years and canceled as soon as the fee to cancel was less than what our monthly cost was. It seems like these companies offer you semi-reasonable prices upfront. However, they usually raise their rates later, such as doubling the price the second year. Some networks showcase full show episodes of their shows on their website. Here's some alternatives for you to consider:
- Netflix: Netflix is a very popular product and allows you to watch whatever you want whenever you choose. From movies to television, the options are absolutely insane. Many people prefer this method because you have no commercials, no wait time between episodes and the freedom to start and stop however you please. The streaming option is so cheap that you might never look at cable again. They offer a free month-long trial period and then it starts at $7.99 per month.
- Hulu: Hulu+ is for those who want to watch episodes of their favorite shows as early as the day after. Hulu+ expands what is available for free on Hulu. They have a free version or the basic plan is 7.99 a month.
- Amazon Prime: Amazon Prime has a growing selection of movies and television shows. It has less overall than Netflix, but it probably has more movies than Hulu+. It is cheaper per month, however, not all content is free — you may have to pay additional fees for certain shows or movies.Benefits of Amazon Prime:–$99.99 for one year. I must be paid up front, but it breaks down to $11.88 a month
–FREE 2 day shipping on Amazon
–Unlimited streaming of movies and TV shows with Prime Video
–Free unlimited photo storage
–Lots of other benefits too. See the list here
- Use a Streaming Device: We use our BluRay Player and xBox 360 to stream programming through internet-based apps. Any "Smart TV" will allow you to stream directly to your television without needing a separate device. You'll be able to download and use all of the streaming apps directly onto your television. Here's some other streaming devices to consider:
Roku: starting at $39.99
Amazon Fire TV Stick: $39.99

The cops fined him €25 on the spot and he paid as he was in a hurry for a meeting.
He later complained and was initially refunded only €20 for the brakes offence, which police admitted had been given out incorrectly. The police explained €5 of the initial fine was for not having working lights. He pointed out (with his good hand) the lights were powered by a dynamo and therefore weren't illuminated when he was at a halt.
The cops apologised after the story hit the German press where they were rightly ridiculed.

Funny… Lately I'm often thinking about the fun and not (too) serious side of guitar, and a few days ago I was wondering what was happening with the hilarious Kyle Gass & Jack Black's band, Tenacious D.
And here it is… An email from Fret 12 announcing the launch of a new web series on Youtube featuring the guys from Tenacious D. Guitarings is the name of the series featuring KG (Kyle Gass) and Kones (John Konesky, Tenacious D guitarist).
The series will cover instructional videos, interviews, behind-the-scenes footage, and a section named Word From The Couch (a steady stream of guitar consciousness). Now this should be funny, and maybe even instructive.
Right now there is no sign of Jack Black in the project but I'm pretty sure we will see him there once in a while. So… I think this is a show to be followed, and why not starting with checking the Guitarings.com website.

Bert Sacks — Activist Fined $10,000 for Bringing Medicine to Iraq
from theCapitolHillTalks.com, posted November 26, 2012
In 1997, Bert Sacks traveled to Iraq to deliver $40,000 worth of medicine. For this, he was fined $10,000 by the U.S government in 2002 under the Trading with the Enemy Act. We discuss how he was fined, the merits of the sanctions on Iraq, the deficiencies of the Oil for Food Program, and nonviolence. His website is iraqikids.org, and he also directs listeners to visit concernforiraq.org.

"Case Dismissed: Activist Bert Sacks Confronts a Bittersweet Victory," Real Change, Jan. 11, 2012
Real Change assistant editor Rosette Royale wrote this article, which begins:
Bert Sacks ended 2011 with news that would cause most activists to celebrate: A judge dismissed a federal fine against him that totaled more than $16,000.
But as 2012 begins, Sacks, 69, believes that without the chance to defend himself in court, he'll have to find new ways to vocalize his core belief: "That the greatest purveyor of terrorism in the world is my own country," said Sacks.
Strong words from a self-proclaimed nonviolent activist, but they have a precedent. The phrase, said Sacks, is a slight reworking of Martin Luther King Jr.'s statement, "The greatest purveyor of violence in the world is my own country." King spoke those words at Riverside Church in New York City in his 1967 speech "Beyond Vietnam: A Time to Break Silence."
"Bert Sacks: No fine and no court time for Iraqi sanctions," Seattle Times, Jan. 3, 2012
Seattle Times editorial columnist Bruce Ramsey wrote this blog entry, which begins:
The federal case against Bert Sacks, the Seattle activist fined for violation of the Trading with the Enemy Act, was dismissed Dec. 28 — and Sacks is not too happy about it.
Sacks wanted a jury trial. He wanted to argue in public court that in the 1990s the U.S. government had committed an act of terrorism by destroying Iraq's water purification plants during the first Gulf War and using economic sanctions to block their repair. Sacks cited UNICEF and other sources that hundreds of thousands of Iraqi children had died from the effects of unclean water and no medicine. In Sacks' view, they had been killed by the United States as surely as if our government had bombed them.

"Judge puts Bert Sacks trial on hold," Real Change, Oct 19, 2011
On Sept. 19, Bert Sacks had planned to ask a federal judge whether U.S. involvement in Iraq amounted to terrorism. But that judge's recent decision means that Sacks will have to wait for his day in court.
Last month, the judge scheduled to hear United States of America v. Bertram Sacks, which levies a $10,000 fine against Sacks for "engaging with an enemy" ordered the case put on hold before Sacks could take the stand. "The most patriotic thing I've done is to try to get myself into court," says Sacks.

On a recent plane flight, Bert Sacks found an opportunity to practice nonviolent compassion, a skill he'll use to defend himself this September against federal charges of engaging with an enemy.
Sacks had just visited his ailing mother in early January when he sat down on the plane next to a married couple from Ohio. He struck up a conversation.…

"Bert Sacks vs. the U.S. — why an activist still fights for the Iraqi people," Seattle Times, Jan. 4, 2011
Seattle Times editorial columnist Bruce Ramsey writes this op-ed piece, which begins:
For most Americans the sanctions imposed on Iraq during the George H.W. Bush years are an old story. Not for Seattle resident Bert Sacks. Sacks, 68, is scheduled to be in federal court in Seattle Sept. 19 because he publicly violated them.
In 1997, during the Clinton years, Sacks and three others carried satchels of medicine for donation to Iraqi hospitals. They did it in full view of the U.S. media, publicly arguing that the sanctions had created a humanitarian disaster in Iraq. …
