Oh my tired, aching back…

Well, the decluttering and cleaning have continued!  I’ve tackled the guest bedroom… when we did a little remodel, everything got thrown in there… plus I had been using my kids changing table/chest of drawers in there since we moved into this house 12 years ago and with the upcoming arrival of my first grandbaby, DS asked...

So long, farewell, auf wiedersehen, goodbye…

Last week I visited my acupuncturist.  She felt my pulse and looked at me with shock and said you have no motivation!  LOL. I laughed but boy howdy was that the truth!!  I have felt so lethargic and paralyzed ever since we got home and even before... So she moved some energy for me and... Continue Reading →

Lightning Strikes!

In my last two posts, I didn't even mention the most exciting thing that happened to us during my writing break... While we were out of town, a tree in our backyard was struck by lightning! When we got home and were unloading the car, I noticed that there was stuff on the floor and... Continue Reading →

Celebrating my main squeeze

Yesterday, I forgot to mention a very important something we did while I was not writing... We celebrated my DH and his BIG 5-0! We celebrated for a week. First with DS and DILove a week early since we were there. We surprised him with cake and ice cream. He was super surprised and that... Continue Reading →

Road Trips, COVID, Dissent, OH MY!

Well, it’s been a while… again.  I haven’t been able to write.  Our country has gone crazy and I feel sad, afraid, and mad as all get out! But I haven’t wanted to write about it.   I’ve also done some traveling.  That’s been fun!  I took DD on a road trip to Texas across... Continue Reading →

Help us to hear your voice in the voice of our neighbors, in the song of the birds, and rustle of the wind in the leaves.  Help us... Continue Reading →

Experiencing God

Yesterday, I shared the message with a little congregation near my home. As I usually do, I thought I'd share that message here. How have you experienced God recently? How have you experienced the Holy Spirit?  How have you experienced Jesus?  Today is Trinity Sunday, a day to think about the Trinity but I’m going... Continue Reading →

Lament #2

God, Are you even there? Are you watching? Are you seeing this? As a parent, if my children were acting like this, I'd step in. We'd have some time out and some serious discussions on loving one another. Where are you? I've defended you countless times in too many of these situations! Where are you?... Continue Reading →

Lament

Lord, I no longer understand your people. I don’t even feel like I can talk to them anymore. I don't even want to talk to them anymore. So, I’m talking to You. Show me what to do, give me the words to share. How can I make a difference? Show me you are there and... Continue Reading →

Finding the Artist in me

This week, I'm trying to find the artist in me, so yesterday, I grabbed my camera, my real canon camera, not just my phone (it's been a long time since I've done this), the dog, my jacket and we went for a nice nature walk. I stopped and got in weird positions (the leash was... Continue Reading →
