2012 and the world

If 2011 wasn't bad enough, the world is now supposed to end at the winter solstice of 2012. Of course, the world was supposed to end a couple of times this year, but that didn't work out, I think?

I am very happy to have finished the blog a prayer a day project for December. It was quite good for me.

I ordered Jodi Picoult's "sing you home" from amazon for $5. I thought the storyline sounded interesting in their online posting but when I read the introduction I was a bit disappointed when she said she was "writing in part about gay rights". I don't have a problem with books about gay rights but it felt like trickery not to let the consumer know that upfront. In the end though I think that Jodi did take a balanced look at the issue in that she presented both sides of the issue pretty accurately!

I am a wee bit sluggish today thanks to the silly cold. :(
