Good New Bad News

Each new day carries with it new circumstances. On the writing front, I'm happy to report that Pumping Your Muse has climbed back to 4th place on the general non-fiction best seller list at Fictionwise and Windwalker has climbed to number 100 out of 1670 books. I'm happy.

On the finding property quest, we find ourselves caught in the middle. A man who works as a soil tester to see if the land perks claims he has tested the land we are interested in, and that it doesn't perk. However, he has no paperwork to back it up, and he has tried to steer us to land he owns. I tend to find myself a bit suspicious. Either the owner of the property and real estate agent aren't being truthful, or the fellow that tests the soil.

So for those who read my blog regularly, I ask for your prayers on our behalf.

Now, as for my eating. Think there's enough stress going on? Last night I did eat pizza, didn't count calories for that one meal, but I'm back at it today. It's all part of moderation. I'm not allowing counting calories to become a form of bondage. Instead, I'm trying to be moderate. Ate out this afternoon and ate half the entree (which came to about 300 calories). Let me say this, I'm thankful God is changing my heart and mind.
