-Jump start your Bible reading this year by visiting www.bibleplan.org or by buying a new Bible study guide for a book of the Bible or topic you're interested in.

-How long does it take for you to go from loving the fact that you're snowed in to hating it? A day? A week? (I've found I can handle 3-4 days before being stir crazy.)

Four ways to simplify your Christmas:

#1 Make 25-50 copies of a pic of your kids you already own (no family photography session). It's cheaper and quicker!

#2 Simply sign your Christmas cards and don't stress about a family letter.

#3 Bake one or two Christmas treats instead of "mass quantities."

#4 Skip the Christmas party or event you don't want to go to (and cherish those family traditions!).
