I ran into a friend yesterday, and she asked, “Are you okay?” She had a look of concern on her face, and I assured her that I was. She had read my Blog about the Cancer scare, and wanted to make sure I was all good. She is not the only friend that wasn’t sure,… Continue reading Living God’s Best

It’s a Choice
Since deciding to take a Social Media fast, some friends have called me out. Facebook detects a connection, and is telling on me. To stay connected to my daughter while she is at her Father’s this weekend, we’ve used Messenger. Facebook Messenger is an app that is made by Facebook, but is separate. So, nope.… Continue reading It’s a Choice
To Feel Him
I have done a lot of things that make me look like an idiot. Probably one of my all time favorites was when I would praise and worship God on a pier. I woke up this morning, snagged a cup of Joe, and stepped outside. I love to stand on my front porch, feel the… Continue reading To Feel Him
Feel the Music
My daughter figured out how to hook up the sub woofer to her stereo before she left to go visit her Dad. I now know how to get her out of bed without even walking into her room! It’s amazing how it feels when something is completely connected. We enjoyed the stereo pre-subwoofer, but now… Continue reading Feel the Music

My daughter has started to collect succulents. She has been studying about them for a while, so she knows what to do. I… Continue reading Before She Leaves
Outside the Box
My daughter and I went shopping yesterday, and there is one shop I absolutely adore. They have the most beautiful things, and it’s pure bliss just to walk through. I bought a candle. Having spent years of my life smelling candles, I know the really good ones to buy. This shop just started carrying some… Continue reading Outside the Box
Circle of Healing
My daughter, and I went to the Fourth of July celebration lastnight, in our tiny town. It was quaint, and sweet. It was enough walking through town, and soaking up the stares from strangers. My daughter, as you know is stunning, and today, so am I. She tied a flag scarf around my bald head,… Continue reading Circle of Healing
Gunpowder and Lace
There may come a time where we need to let go of our dream so someone else can have theirs. We work tirelessly at what seems to be something we want to achieve, but it’s like rolling a boulder uphill using our noses. A friend of mine recently gave up her dream shop after struggling… Continue reading Gunpowder and Lace
