"Limitless: Devotions for a Ridiculously Good Life" - Book Review

I have to admit that I was fascinated about the life of Nick Vujicic and chose this book for that reason. I was expecting autobiography, but pleasantly surprised to find this book is a devotional. I'm not always a fan of devotional books, but this one is so different than the "normal" devotional that I couldn't stop reading it cover-to-cover when it arrived!

Each chapter of this devotional begins with a scripture about a life topic. It then has a story that Nick Vujicic relates from his own life without arms and legs, to every person in every walk of life. Instead, of finishing with a prayer at the end of a chapter, this devotional ended with sound advice to go forward in life. Each chapter could stand alone if you wanted to pick a particular subject, or like myself, you could read this devotional from cover-to-cover!

Every chapter seemed like it was speaking directly to me. As I read "Limitless", I had to keep looking at the cover to see if Nick Vujicic had grown arms and legs, because he seems so "normal" by his writing. It seemed like he had literally gone through the same things that I've gone through. I highly recommend this devotional to everyone, even if you don't generally care for devotionals, because Vujicic truly hits home to every persons life and heart. It will give you hope, no matter what you are going through!

I recieved this book from Waterbrook Press in exchange for an authentic review.

DIY Pig Feeder

This is our second year of raising pigs for the fair. We've had some bumps along the way, one of them was our homemade feeder of last year. I tend to have ideas, and then Mr. Right gets the pleasure of trying to execute my ideas. Most of the time it works out, but last year, our feeder was a fail. This year, we need a feeder that can go a long period of time, since our pigs are not on our property where we live. Our neighbor made a complaint about the smell of the pigs last year to our landlord, so the landlord told us no more pigs. (Keep in mind, there are only 2 pigs on 6 acres and they are only here for 5 months and then go to the 4-H fair and livestock auction) Thankfully, another neighbor graciously allowed us to pen up a corner of her horse pen, to put our pigs in. This year, I wanted to be sure that Mr. Right did a quality version of the pig feeder that would make it through the entire five months, and hopefully into the next few years! We agreed on

Burlap and Ticking

I found a queen size bed ruffle with a ticking ruffle on it. Immediately, I picked it up (for only $1!) at our local thrift store. I knew that I would combine it with my find of burlap bags. ( I picked up 200 of them for only $10! Yes, that's right, they were only $.05 each! I overindulged in them, and could take no less than 200 because of the price.) One of the problems with my new bags is that they are a little smaller than the printed ones that I have. I personally like really long table runners because I have a really big table, but I decided to get over my own feelings and make this runner as long as I could (the ruffle really helped, too). So here is the runner. I think the ticking and the burlap really look great together. I know how to make ruffles and have ticking, but for $1 I thought that this really was worth using from a different source! You could have it in the middle of a big table like above, or you could have the ruffle hang down the edge of the

Drop Cloth Couch Re-do

It's my 100th Post! What a great big reveal I have in store for you today! Three years ago, I found Miss Mustard Seeds' 6 part How to Make Slipcovers Series and started with watching the first video. I ran out to Home Depot and purchased two drop clothes, washed and bleached them to get ready for making the slipcovers for my two couches, and there they sat folded nicely in my craft room! A year ago, we moved across the country, so I packed those drop clothes up in a box, clearly marked them and put them on the truck. When we arrived, I put them in front of all my other boxes to do first. We even moved again over Christmas, and I moved that box again! Then, I did a pillow re-do, HERE that pushed me over the edge. I just had to tackle those slip covers! Before of the couch and the pillows that began the entire thing! I had a Saturday, where the guys were doing guy things and it was me and the girls home, so I watched all 6 videos! Yes, I did, from start to
