Hello again after my nice, long break of no blogging... I finally got my computer back earlier this week, so I figured it was about time to post again! :-) I've been busy sorting through files every day, deleting thousands... Only about a dozen of my documents work, a few dozen pictures, and at least a few hundred videos (I haven't counted- but I've deleted more of everything than I kept). But I have come up with something interesting to do on my blog, now that I have my computer back and can work on some things on it! Since so many of my followers and viewers have been asking about my book that I wrote during NaNoWriMo last November, I have decided to post a short scene from my book every week, until either 1. I run out of scenes, without giving you the whole book, or 2. The book is ready to read. I actually have not read my book all the way through since I wrote it, but... I'm working on editing it now, as well as Hannah Jean, so hopefully it'll be a little closer to being done before too long! I also have to write more scenes. But for now, you'll get little teasers from my book- enjoy! :-)
P.S.- please comment and let me know what you think about my book excerpts! :-)

Happy New Year!
Happy New Year! I can hardly believe it's already 2011... I thought I should start out the new year a little better, in the blogging sphere. ;-) I do have a good reason for not having posted in a while, though...
Last Monday, my computer decided to delete all of my files, for some unknown reason- all my videos, all my pictures, and all my documents- thousands of files! Well, I ran a program I found on the Internet to try to recover the files. It recovered a lot of them, although quite a few are still missing. There's a slight problem, though- most of the files don't work! At least half of my pictures are "invalid images", and I've only found 3 or 4 documents out of at least a hundred that actually work! And then on New Year's Eve, it decided that it wouldn't recognize our family's WiFi, even when my computer was less than 2 feet from the router! So, my computer is now beyond whatever my dad or I can figure out... :-/ Oh well- I'm sure God had a reason for doing it. ;-) So, posts will be a little less often, as I'm on our family computer now, and it has a rather slow Internet connection. Also, I don't have any of my pictures on this computer yet. ;-)
I'll leave you with this thought, from the sermon at our church this morning...
"Give God the firstfruits, not the leftovers. Look at what God can do with leftovers- just imagine what He can do with the firstfruits!"
