Never Settle. Don't even think about it.
It was cool in the house this morning, so I reached over and grabbed my cape. When it was time to manage a Chemex of coffee, I tied the cape around my neck. It’s draped around my shoulders as I type. Between living in Texas, and going through Chemo, I get chilled easily. If it’s […]
Read MoreWhat resonated with you in yesterday’s post? My daughter’s favorite part is, “I will live as all good actors do when they are on stage-only in the moment. I cannot perform at my best today by regretting my previous act’s mistakes or worrying about the scene to come.” My favorite is, “I will embrace today’s […]
Read MoreI am looking at my drafts folder each day. As writer’s we start writing and lose our train of thought. When I saw this one in drafts, I knew what I was going to write. This picture, and title was all there was, but that was enough. My daughter and I bought this Snowman hat […]
Read MoreThis song came to mind as I was driving to my mammogram appointment Thursday. As I mentioned in “Test of Faith“, Seymour saw me as ‘suffering in silence’, during the Chemo part of my Breast Cancer Journey. I did get quiet during The Red Devil part, but I want to assure you, I saw every […]
Read MoreA year changes you a lot. It’s hard to believe that a year ago, the lump in my left breast was so painful, I could hardly breathe. Fast forward to this moment. I have one more Radiation treatment left. That lump is not there anymore, and this Breast Cancer Journey is ending. Every ending has […]
Read MoreMy daughter and I live in a very small town. We found out recently, that people ride by and look to see if our vehicles are here. They know when we’re home, and when we’re not home. I’m sure they mean well, but in today’s world, that could be considered ‘stalking.’ There is a man […]
Read MoreMany of my daily devotionals recently have been about trusting God. It’s not so hard to trust Him, but to lay your life at His feet, and to trust Him completely with the outcome. I’m still working on that. Looking back over my life some rather large mountains have been removed. Things happened that I […]
Read MoreI slept through the night. That in itself is a miracle. I woke up thinking about a Blog I wrote lastnight before bed entitled, How to Fly. I wanted to pull it up, and delete it because I wasn’t happy with it. Since when is this Blog about me? I just write what’s on my […]
Read MoreI’ve written quite a bit about this Breast Cancer Journey. Talking to a dear friend earlier, it made me realize I haven’t really summed up the changes in writing. It’s easy for me to forget all the small things I went through. My journey has been relatively easy compared to others, but maybe that is […]
Read MoreI have met three people this week that live in the same town I live in. This came to my attention just by talking, and asking questions to people I’ve run into throughout the week. This small town, with one 4-way stop, has some darling people living in it. Recently, I have realized how much […]
