Light Within Cobblestones the Audio Version
Coming Soon
Light Within
Cobblestones is just a few weeks away from going online.
The editing process has been amazing. At the same time the
narrator Tina Bjorklund from Spokane
Voice has been prepping for the audio version. The audio version will come
out a few weeks after the ebook. Tina and I have made quite a few background
sounds, and from what I understand, she will be recording my voice for small sections
of the book. However, she will be narrating most of the book.
While looking for a good narrator, one has to consider the
tone of the narrator’s voice. Will the tone suit the flavor of the book? Is the
narrator a clear speaker? As much as these things are important. Ideally, the
narrator has to like the book as well.
But the bottom line is the recording equipment has to be top
drawer as well as the narrator has to be very skilled. Creativity is wonderful
when all of the different aspects of the narrator are stellar.
We believe we
have made a wise choice and audio book lovers will be pleasantly surprised.
Tina is quite the DJ as well. Plus a quiet little fact, she is one fabulous hostess.

I'm Married To A Dishy Man
Life With Cecile
When I married my husband I was not used to doing my own
dishes. In fact I had a maid for my home I even hired someone who could cook
and leave my dinner in the refrigerator so when I got home from work there the
dinner would be. I did without other amenities so I could hire someone to do my
household duties. Some people enjoy cleaning house, I do not. I was not exactly
domesticated, I had better things to do than clean and cook at home. I never
learned to be a housewife in the old-fashioned sense of the word. My husband
decided we did not need a maid. This caused quite an issue, even though I
worked every day cooking at work, when I got home it was near impossible for me
to consider making my own food. I will admit, having been a primadonna made life a
little difficult.
When I first married my husband all I had to say was I’m
hungry and off my husband would run to the kitchen. Not to make something to
eat, instead he would go and clean the kitchen. When he was done, sometimes an hour later (he is slower than molasses, pour tired thing) he would get
the television remote and find himself something to watch on television. Then
and only then would it be time to get something to eat. He would sit down
and look at me pointedly as if to say, “OK, you can go cook now, what is taking
so long.” I found this annoying. Newly married, we were still getting used to
each other. Married couples need to pick their battles, so I kept my mouth shut
even though it was driving me crazy.
We had a one backside kitchen. Only one of us could be in
the space at a time. Obviously looking a gift horse in the mouth, I would get
quite irritated and short with him because he was doing the dishes instead of
getting us some food. Still, I would not tell him what the problem was, it
seems so silly that it was annoying me. This went on for quite some time, when
one afternoon I decided to hand over the issue to God. I stopped what I was
doing and prayed about my irritation and my viewpoint thinking I needed a
thought adjustment.
After I got up off my knees I sat down and waiting for my
husband to come home. After he got in the hugs and kisses were dispensed and he
asked me how my day at work went. As was the usual, he asked me if I was hungry
and sure enough off he went to the kitchen…to do the dishes.
I sat there and suddenly realized, I did not have a maid yet
I had not done the dishes since we were married. I thanked the Lord and waited
for my turn in the kitchen.
The following day I could not wait for my dear husband to
get home. As soon as he walked through the door I said, “Honey I’m hungry.” As
he jumped right up and headed to the kitchen and the dishes I laughed my head
off and praised God. Har, har. My prayers never changed my husband. I just realized
God had provided not only a wonderful husband, but he had provided a dishwasher
as well.
He cooks too eventually and I did begin to cook, on Sundays
anyway.
My husband is quite firm in his habits, he still does the
dishes when he gets home from work. It’s been sixteen years. Sometimes I’m
blind but I’m always blessed.

1 Peter 4:9 Show hospitality to one another without
grumbling.
Matthew 6:31-32 Therefore do not be anxious, saying, ‘What
shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ For the
Gentiles seek after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you
need them all.
