You've no doubt noticed the big hullabaloo that the left is making over Sarah Palin writing a couple of words on her hand for the Tea Party speech.

I just wanted to tell you how much I love your blog. I love your spiritual insight, and I love that you dig in the dirt for show and tell items. I have five kids ages 5-20… my mind isn't as nimble as it was when the oldest was a preschooler. We've actually only remembered about show and tell approximately three times the entire school year.

I can SO relate to the show and tell thing. I always feel like I'm a few steps behind all the other moms in my kids' classes.

And speaking of that, I just now linked up my 7 quick takes. I finished them last night, after fighting with my computer for a few hours and then forgot to link. Ooops.

Jen, I have been known to write on my hand from time to time as well.

And speaking of scatterbrained, the last few days I'm having trouble remembering to change the baby's diaper at regular intervals!

I just love your blog, both for your writing and for the community you have created. And I love squeaking in at 11:59 so that my blog timestamp still says "Friday" for purposes of this meme!

I also was seriously – SERIOUSLY – going to take a photo of my hand today, too. Must be something in the air.

Marie,I must be poisoned for life!

I used to write on my hand to remind me of things I needed to know from class to class (I am a substitute teacher), but then–duh–I would use the bathroom and wash my hands or give out the hand sanitizer and use some myself, and all my information would disappear. So I started writing on my forearm. Since I don't want to succumb to pen poisoning (would prefer to be driven slowly insane by school children-har)I guess I will have to come up with a different system.

Perhaps I should find a small dry erase board and hang it around my neck with some string….

My real wedding band cost $20. Hee hee. I like it, even though during the winter months I have to switch it to a fatter finger. Resizing it would cost $80 which seems kind of silly for a few months out of the year.
Maybe I will grow out of my cheapskateness one year. But probably not.

Born Again by Third Day
When I Get Where I'm Going by Brad Paisley

Thanks for sharing your words with us and have a great weekend
