Mullen, Pax 217, Earthsuit, KJ-52, John Reuben, FM Static, Stellar Kart, Mercy Me, Casting Crowns and NEVERTHELESS. Right now my personal favorite is Nevertheless because the electric guitar player AJ Cheek is a wonderful Christian and an amazing musician. Plus I just love the lyrics and sound of their music.
Books
Too many wonderful titles to count.
Movies/TV
Too busy to watch much of anything. I'd rather read a book.

Hi Michelle,
I tried to hurry and make it 55,556 - but by that time, your numbers had already increased to 55,571. You're quite an inspiration, you know?

More and more blessings sweet girl,

Sharlene MacLaren on 10/04/09 - 7:18 PM
Hahaha, you're funny. Of course, you're still there. It's not like I need or want to hear from people ALL THE TIME! Not at all. But there are some who haven't been on SL in months, and I'm like, why are they on my top-25? Then there are some who I've stepped up communicating with and would love to put up there. Soooo...

Bonnie told me you're stepping down from CFOM. Is this because your writing career has taken wing? Are you FINALLY figuring out you cannot do it all? -grins- You're awesome, Michelle. Love you to pieces.

Hugs...
