I am Tammy Cardwell, she of the cluttered desk. (Hey, you think I'm kidding?!) I'm having a blast here in Blogland and invite to you to peruse my ramblings. Like a buffet, they offer variety - essentially whatever makes it to the top of the piles that sometimes clutter my brain. We'll eventually cover it all - homeschooling, God, our church, the Eclectic Homeschool Online, books I'm writing and publishing, conferences I speak at, the joys of grandmotherhood, and hopefully chocolate. Of course, this is only what's near the top now. Who knows what's in those piles?

Never judge a book by its cover. Really. I mean it!
Her name is Susan Boyle and she’s taught thousands of people not to prejudge someone’s abilities by their appearance or presentation.
I wish I could embed the video, but they’re not allowing it, so do yourself a favor and go watch this clip from Britain’s Got Talent’s 2009 talent search. See 47-year-old Susan Boyle completely floor the judges and everyone else when she sings "I Dreamed a Dream" from Les Miserables.
Celebrating Jesus!

This Just In…. Have you seen the new Trek film?
If you live in Austin, Texas, you might be shouting, "YES!!!!"
This is too seriously cool. You’ll find the whole article at TrekMovie.com. Here’s the first paragraph. Oh those lucky people!
Tonight Paramount pulled off one of the coolest stunts in fan history. Promoted as just a 10 minute preview of the new Star Trek to show along with The Wrath of Khan, tonight fans in Austin, TX were actually shown the entire new Star Trek movie. The event included surprise guests, including the original Spock himself, Leonard Nimoy. [UPDATE: A number of reviews are already in - we have a summary of those below]
The language in some of the reviews is..shall we say…less than delightful. I’d watch who’s reading over your shoulder.
Celebrating Jesus!

Do, Re, Mi….
Did I spell it correctly?
Ah, who cares. The point is… You have GOT to see this!
Antwerp station. Suddenly Julie Andrews’ voice, singing a well-known (to us anyway) song, starts playing over the public address system. What follows…
….is priceless!! (And HUGE fun!)
