This book is very engaging. I had a hard time putting it down. I think many of us can relate or at least sympathize with Holden Caufield. At first whim the ending may seem lackadaisical but once you look back on the meaning of the book and its main character it makes more sense.

When I was shopping for a carpet cleaner, this was the best reviewed carpet cleaner on Amazon. Despite the occasional bad review for problems with longevity and shoddy manufacturing, it was still well reviewed. So I bought one. Guess what? It worked. I am not going to get into how dirty the carpets were (used carpet, 4 kids, 4 pets 2 adults) or the stains (various blueberry stains, mud, well worn carpeting). All that matters for me is that it works. My ugly PINK carpeting is now clean ugly PINK carpeting and thats good enough for me. My only problems with the unit itself is the thing is so heavy (if you have stairs hire a professional), it is so picky everything has to be seated just right for it to work properly (which is only a problem because the waste water top is difficult to seat properly and the unit will NOT pick up water if the top isnt seated right), and it requires a lot of cleaner…5 ounces per gallon (The all natural non-toxic cleaner I use is 48 ounces I went through two bottles of it. That seems excessive for a 700sq. ft. or so). Be that as it may, heavy equipments that use alot of cleaner come with the territory and of course you have to have everything right for it to work right. So my gripe is really with the industry not the cleaner. So its 5 stars for me.

Every year a special book comes out that captures the Holiday Spirit and becomes a year after year classic. Heart of the Holidays is such a book. We all need to be reminded of the true meaning of the Christmas Holiday and those warm, fuzzy feelings that made our hearts sing as children. Sheryl Rousch has captured those feelings in her Heart Series and gift wrapped them for us all to share. Thank you Sheryl for giving such a joyful gift.
God’s words, thoughts..meanings are often taken and fitted into holes that would take squares. Many often take one verse and build an entire belief system around it without any sense of context or application.
This book however, goes one better. A better title would be, Talking with Satan…
If there were ever a bastardization of God’s Holy words and their meanings…this book is it.
For instance (and I paraphrase), when a girl asks the question “Why am I a lesbian?” His answer is that she was ‘born that way’ because of genetics (just as you were born right-handed, with brown eyes, etc.). Then he tells her to go out and “celebrate” her differences.
Another girls poses the question “I am living with my boyfriend. My parents say that I should marry him because I am living in sin. Should I marry him?”
His reply is, “Who are you sinning against? Not me, because you have done nothing wrong.”
Another question asks about God’s forgiveness of sin. His reply “I do not forgive anyone because there is nothing to forgive.. There is no such thing as right or wrong and that is what I have been trying to tell everyone, do not judge people. People have chosen to judge one another and this is wrong, because the rule is “‘judge not lest ye be judged.”
So, as my title ask…Are your ears itching..I take that from the following scripture which warns us of this very thing being offered up as something from God.
2 Timothy 4:3……”For a time is coming when people will no longer listen to sound and wholesome teaching. They will follow their own desires and will look for teachers who will tell them whatever their itching ears want to hear.”
My dog has tennis balls and does not destroy them, however this toy was no good in 5 minutes. He found the squeaker and pulled it out and the fabric around where the squeaker was inserted. I contacted Kong products and they offered to send some coupons and they have not done so yet and it has been 4 weeks. Not a great toy!

While I found this to be a wonderful item, it was pricy and the price dropped a few days after I purchased it. Barnes and Noble dropped their price thus Amazon followed suit…just goes to show you our wonderful capitalist system at work. Too bad they haven’t dropped the larger version as well.
