So we stopped off at 396 and today is Day 38 oops!! Day 46!
And I realize that I am WAY WAY behind - seems I made a bit of a calculation error. I had told the women who I am studying One Thousand Gifts with - that if we are together for XX weeks - it is 12 per day. And for some reason I thought when I last posted, that I was on Day 33. WHAT???
