Hi everyone,
As I mentioned in Monday’s post, I won’t be posting on this blog in 2011. I wanted to make a few changes. This blog feels a little tired…
From now on, you can find me at The Useful Box.
The Useful Box is named in honour of Play-school. For those who don’t know Play-school, the useful box contains a collection of bits and pieces which can, with a little flair, be used to make unique craft items.
My “Useful Box” is a collection of bits and pieces (pieces of encouragement, tips, hints, personal stories, ideas, things I read) which can be “crafted” to suit our own unique situations.
What will be different:
- The blog address
- The frequency of posts – probably 2-3 per week. More if I feel like it.
- A Facebook “Useful Box” page with more frequent (daily-ish) updates including “Bible bite” – a Bible passage for each day (to help me read the Bible on a daily basis), “What’s for dinner?” (to make me plan our meals) and a “Daily to-do” (to make me do one less-preferred household task each day). I’d love you to join in with your daily to-dos and meal plans (We can give each other ideas!), and to add your thoughts on the “Bible bite” passage.
- More “conversation” and interaction with you. (Come on, work with me here…)
What will be the same:
- You (I hope!)
- Me
- Topic areas – kids, marriage, organising, cleaning, cooking, living for Jesus, reflections, what I’m reading/ thinking and ramblings
For those who read the “Works for me” Facebook page, I will also be closing that page within the next couple of months – please join on “The Useful Box” Facebook page instead.
Looking forward to 2011…



Sounds good Julie. Look forward to catching up at your new blog.
