Posted in Contests
I remembered late last night that I was supposed to choose a winner for the contest that I recently blogged about. Sorry for the delay ... it just slipped my mind! Anyway, the winner was commentor #7 (Kitty) and I have already emailed her at the email address given in the comment. I have been given permission to give away the same prize one more time this month, so let's have another contest!
*** For this contest, I would like to hear about your favorite thing to do on a cold, snowy day. See, where I live, everyone gets excited at even the MENTION of snow. Now, I don't because I know that the chances of us getting enough accumulation for the kids to go out and play in is almost nil. Those of you who live in the snowy states would have a BIG laugh if you could see our TV coverage right now ... they even salted the roads in my town YESTERDAY and the possible snow isn't even going to be here until sometime tonight. Here is our current forecast and you should have seen the people at the grocery store ... you would have thought we were expecting a blizzard
!
A chance of snow in the evening...then snow likely after midnight. Rain...a chance of light freezing rain and light sleet in the early morning. Snow and sleet accumulation up to 2 inches. Lows in the lower 30s. East winds 5 to 15 mph. Chance of precipitation near 100 percent.
Many of you know Martha of MarmeeDear.com and Rebekah of Hope Chest Legacy. Well, they have come together to offer us a wonderful year-long program called The Homemaker's Mentor. Below is the info that I have received in my email recently. Jeannie had this to say about the program, "I joined the Marmee Dear and the lessons look really nice and simple enough, I think it would make for a great way for those of us who can sometimes fall on the way side of homekeeping/being a keeper of the home, I look forward to the "free" lessons they will put out on top of the lessons they have when you subscribe."

I have been busier than ever and am so excited to remind you about my new ministry in mentoring homemakers around the world along with my dear friend, Rebekah of HopeChestLegacy. We already have members from Canada, Australia and the big wonderful USA!
Together, Rebekah and I, have created the HOMEMAKER'S MENTOR that is an online course for a full year to instuct and mentor homemakers in the spirit of Titus 2.
We have a list of confirmed lessons below, but we also anticipate
several additional free lessons by well-known authors in their field of
interest. The topic of the lessons are secret until the authors complete
their writing, but as they are written and submitted we will be making
them available to each of our subscribing members as a free gift for enrolling with us.
