Ollie Chandler Collection

The Ollie Chandler Collection, consisting of “Deadline,” “Dominion,” and “Deception” by Randy Alcorn present three good reads for any lover of mystery/detective stories.
Along with the twists and turns of a detective novel, Alcorn also intertwines a Christian perspective toward life. He touches on a number of issues: racial reconciliation, the search for a spiritual meaning to life, what comes next, and others.
I highly recommend this series to any reader of fiction.
I was provided this collection by Waterbrook-Multnomah in return for an unbiased review of same.

Weighted Blanket

As many readers may know, my son Christopher has Asperger's.
There are a number of things which he has to deal with in relation to this and for the most part deals with it well.
Kaitlyn also has sensory issues.
Weighted blankets are used with these types of issues to provide comfort when sleeping and other trying times.
If you have a child with sensory issues, go to this website and enter to win a weighted blanket.
