A woman named Kelli at a Christian radio station called Winds of Praise in Newport, OR asked permission to reprint an earlier blog post called Ten Steps to Christian Simplicity in their monthly newsletter.
On the left-hand side of their page, hover over the button that says "POST monthly newsletter" and look at the February 2013 issue. That's where you'll find the article (as a pdf download).
Thanks Kelli!

On the (blog talk) radio
The Homeschool Homemaker dropped me a note that she referenced this blog on her blog talk radio podcast, which can be heard here.
She discusses what homeschoolers and homemakers can learn from preppers.
Go listen!

On the radio
I was invited by a regional Christian radio program in Coeur d'Alene called Let's Reach America to tape a program to broadcast on a future date. The girls were invited to sit in on the recording session, so we'll all make an excursion of it.
I spoke to producer and co-host Becky Funk on Tuesday to hammer out details, but warned her that I (well, all of us) are getting over a cold. It's one of those nasty coughy colds that lingers and lingers. Every few minutes during conversation I have to pause and hack my lungs out (into a handkerchief). Becky told me that they have a pause button and/or editing ability during the taping, so hopefully my hacking won't be too apparent to listeners.
The show's website indicates the radio program is heard every Monday thru Friday, 4:00-4:30pm (PST) on 89.9FM, KYMS, The Bridge, or on the web at www.KYMSRadio.com. There will be a podcast available as well. I'm not sure when my interview will air, so I'll be sure to ask.
We haven't tried getting off our road since yesterday's little snow temper tantrum, and today's weather is windy and snowy (equal drift-y), so let's hope I don't have trouble getting to the city.

On the radio again
I was invited to be a guest once more on Chris Levels' radio show, Politics and Prophecy, broadcast on WSNL out of Flint, Michigan. Mr. Levels, as you may remember, is the kind and patient host whose program last March got me over my petrifying fear of being on the radio.
The funny thing was, I didn't even have time to get scared with this interview because I thought the radio program was today (Thursday) but in fact it was yesterday. At 6:55 a.m. yesterday morning the phone rang. Wondering who on earth could be calling so early, I ran down to answer it and found myself speaking to the charming young woman who is the station's sound tech. So within fifteen minutes I was on the air! No time to get nervous! It was great!
Chris and I discussed a number of issues, including the TSA (cough) "security" requirements, WikiLeaks, and other subjects. He hopes to have me on again in the near future to discuss SB 510 (the Food Safety Modernization Act) among other issues.
Thank you Chris for once again being the perfect host!

Scary experience
Well, I did something this morning I never thought to do...and it absolutely terrified me. I was on the radio.
A few weeks ago I received an email from a Christian talk show host in Flint, Michigan inviting me to appear on his half-hour broadcast. Since I have what amounts to a virtual phobia about being on the radio, I knew I had to do it just to get over my fears.
The phobia stems from the one other time I was on the radio in 1999 on a local station when we lived in Oregon. I always thought I did terrible - simply awful - and was so mortified over the experience that I never so much as listened to that episode even though it was recorded.
But my husband warned me that eventually these types of invitations would happen, and by golly he was right. So when Mr. Chris Levels of WSNL Victory600 in Flint, MI invited me to participate in his show called Politics and Prophecy, I was scared to death.
Mr. Levels was a perfect host. He fully understood my fears and encouraged me to be myself. After a restless night, I got up this morning at 4 am (even though the phone call from the station wasn't slated to come through until about 6:45 am Pacific time) because I couldn't sleep. As the hours ticked by, my hands grew colder and colder until they were positively icy.
Yet Chris Level's beautifully-modulated voice walked me through the interview with nary a trouble. His professionalism and kind encouragement were a welcome balm to my fears, and I'm hoping I didn't do half-badly.
A sincere thank-you, Chris, for your kindness in helping me get over this little phobia. I couldn't have asked for a better re-introduction to the world of radio, and actually find myself looking forward to the next opportunity.
