WRW Month - Day 12 - Recommended Reading
I haven't blogged much this week - but I can honestly say that I've been making the most of WRW Month myself! Exercising or walking either at home or at the Henry Ford Museum gives me time to think, pray, and do something other than sit at my desk! Reading has been easy to do the last couple weeks - I had to finish Pride and Prejudice in time for Jane Austen Book Club earlier this week. It was a great read. I love book club because it stretches me to read things I probably wouldn't read otherwise. As for letter-writing, my goal was to write at least one letter each day, but I've ended up sending more than that!
Since I don't get "points" for my own contest, I'm just doing each of these for the sheer joy of doing them - and with so many participating, they are motivating me to do even more than I thought I could!
Yes, that all leads me to recommend the following book to you: On a Personal Note..., by Angela Ensminger and Keely Chace. I bought mine for $15.00 last year at a Hallmark store. If you're one who feels you don't write letters because you don't know what to say, this is the book for you. As the summary on the back cover states: "From thank-you to sympathy and everything in between, On a Personal Note... breaks writing great notes into six easy-to-do steps."
Chapter Titles: Introduction, 1-Gratitude, 2-Congratulations, 3-Important Days, 4-Love & Romance, 5-Apology & Reconnection, 6-Comfort & Cheer, 7-Sympathy, 8-Business, and the final chapter-PS Some Useful Information for Note Writing
The authors not only created a book full of pleasing colors, designs, and illustrations, they also created a book full of ideas, motivational thoughts, and inspirational tidbits! For less than the cost of a DVD, you can have a book that will guide you through the joys of letter-writing and card-sending!
