This Saturday at Coastal Community Church I am going to be baptized. The time is right for me in my path with God. And it happens to be Easter, too. A great time to do it!
"But, I thought you were Catholic?" you might ask. "Weren't you baptized as a baby? And confirmed in seventh grade?"
"Yes I was." I will answer. And I am glad my parents did that. I am also thankful that I was raised in the church. Catholic school, however is another story ;)
So as a German-Polish Jew (heritage only) who was raised a Catholic, married a Protestant and takes our family to a non-denominational community church (which I LOVE), I am called in this stage of life to become baptized.
May God Bless me and my path with Him!
p.s. I believe this post is my 101st blog post!

Thrift Stores
Many years ago, I guess in high school or so, I discovered the joys of the hunt. Modern day treasure hunting in thrift stores has been uniquely rewarding for not much capital. And these days, with our drab economy, nobody has much to go around anymore. But we still need clothes, dishes, infant car seats, and the occasional candle holder or citrus juicer.
And because our economy is so low and slow, so many thrift stores are popping up everywhere! Also would like to mention baby resale stores, thrift stores focusing mainly on baby and kid's clothing, furniture, and gear. All thrift stores are more than likely to have really good quality items, and nowadays have updated clothing. A family member wanted to have an '80s party (come in costume) and actually had trouble finding clothing from that decade.
So if you can get past the occasional funky smells and weird looking people, there are treasures to be found! (I hope I can get to a few first ;o)
