New Product: Glad Expressions Oil Diffuser

I just tried a new product called Glad Expressions Oil Diffuser.  The scent I selected is  "Lavender & Juniper Berry".  I placed it in my guest bathroom and it provides a nice continuous scent to both the bathroom and the surrounding area.

I also like the look of the diffuser.  It fits in nicely with my decor.  I was very pleasantly surprised that the scent was not too over powering.

It is a bit pricey when you buy the starter set, but they do sell refills that are more cost effective.  I recommend you give it a try!

I participated as a BzzAgent and received a free Glad Expressions Oil Diffuser as part of the campaign. I am sharing my own honest opinion.

Unglued Devotional by Lysa Terkeurst

Unglued Devotional by Lysa Terkeurst is a wonderful 60 day devotional.  Lysa subtitles the book by referring to it as 60 days of imperfect progress.   I can relate to that sentiment.  We are imperfect, striving to live a more pleasing life in the eyes of our Creator, our families, and our world.  It speaks to the part of me that is trying to be less reactionary and more present in life’s circumstances.  This devotional is helping me along that path.

Each daily devotional has a quirky title like … “The Root of My Rot” or “Resist the Funk” or “Pizza Man Grace”.  There is also a scripture verse, thought for the day, and a prayer.  They are quick to read and easy to relate to. 

I know you’ll enjoy the way this devotional will inspire you without criticizing you.  The thought for today is “The best thing for me to do is position my heart in a place where I can experience God”.  I like that so that is what I’ll strive for today.

I received this book free from the publisher through the BookSneeze®.com book review bloggers program. I was not required to write a positive review. The opinions I have expressed are my own.

20,0000 Days and Counting: by Robert D. Smith

 20,000 Days and Counting by Robert D. Smith is a quick read with some thought provoking ideas. How do we measure our time here on earth and determine our worth?  As I sit here today, I've been alive exactly 18,036 days.  Maybe that means I’m ahead of the curve.  By God’s Grace I still have time to live each day to its fullest; to live abundantly. Perhaps this book can point me in that direction.

At the beginning of each chapter, there are quotes from people who have lived throughout the ages. I especially enjoyed one from a person who lived exactly 20,830 days: “Take care of the things you need to take care of today.” This is practical advice from Horace, a Roman poet who lived from December 8, 65 BC to November 27, 8 BC.; words that can be put to use many, many years later.

I think you’ll enjoy the way this book challenges you to eat dessert first, say yes, and ask yourself these two important questions … “What is important right now to you?” and “What is next for you?” Don't forget to go the website theRobertD.com to find out how many days you've been alive.  It may spark you on to even greater things.
