When I write a blog, it usually is a result of something I have read in the morning that I feel God is prompting me to write about. Most of the time it is a direct result of something I am battling with myself ,and you, my dear friends, get to be the victims ofContinue reading “Resentment Machine”

Your worst enemy
I love to read the Psalms when I am angry (or feeling like a victim). David, who wrote the majority of them, goes in to great detail about wanting his enemies to be “smote” or tortured in some terrible way. He vents his fears and human desire for justice to come to his enemies. HeContinue reading “Your worst enemy”
SQUIRRELS
So–it’s been about a week since I have last written. Here’s why: I convinced myself I had nothing enlightening to say. Worried that I had run dry of stories and insights into everyday kind of life. But, this morning, I had an epiphany. It came while I was watching squirrels. Yes. Squirrels. There were 5Continue reading “SQUIRRELS”
Inside Pets
We have a cat. Her name is Sunny Day. She is 12 years old in people years. As a kitten she almost didn’t make it for the long haul (scratching my little kids til’ they cried and tearing up furniture almost got her killed-by me). But as I am typing this, she is still here,Continue reading “Inside Pets”
Dumb-Struck
My daughter has had laryngitis this week. If you haven’t met her, she is 14 and LOVES to talk. A lot. It’s been torture for her; that is, until she discovered an APP that would make her phone speak for her. She would type (which she can do about as fast as she can speak)Continue reading “Dumb-Struck”
Cousin Eddie
I am sitting on the couch in my pajama’s listening to Christmas Carols on my IPAD. I love my living room this time of year. The Christmas tree is in here, there is a beautiful tray with candles and a poinsettia on the coffee table and my piano looks like a Christmas bomb exploded onContinue reading “Cousin Eddie”

Painter of Light
I’ve been thinking about this for a couple of days now. Even now I am not sure what my take away will be by the time I finish. Maybe that will be up to you… I have a long history with Thomas Kincaid-“Painter of Light.” Remember him? At one point 1 in 20 American HomesContinue reading “Painter of Light”
If you can’t hide it-decorate it!
OK-this is going to be short, sweet and to the point because I have a haircut in 45 minutes. If you are new to my blog, that is a statement of celebration because I have post-leukemic hair and I am very grateful that I have hairs to cut! It’s funny that I am headed toContinue reading “If you can’t hide it-decorate it!”
Fouling Out
I played basketball in high school. Well maybe I should clarify: I played my freshman year at a private school that barely had enough girls to compile a team. I had a great outside shot, as long as no one was guarding me and I had a good amount of time to get set up.Continue reading “Fouling Out”
