Life is too short to not be myself…
I've been cooking for one a lot recently and that's something I struggle with sometimes. It's funny to me how sometimes, it's so easy and then other times... not so much. Oh, I don't struggle so much with the cooking part as I do with the planning part... What do I cook? How do... Continue Reading →
So, I'm trying to write more, but this week was spent just being present with my kids. I've traveled to see them both. It was a quick trip... too quick, but it's been so good for this momma's heart. I miss them so very much and it's good to connect in person. Anyway, with the... Continue Reading →
Let's continue where we left off on Monday, beginning with Chapter 2. Sadness of the heart 1-2 Nehemiah goes before the King to serve him wine. His heart is still full with thoughts of his people and the King sees his sadness and I think is full of compassion so he asks Nehemiah about it.... Continue Reading →
Once again, let me just say, this empty nest thing… it’s for the birds. I’m over it. Time for a recall! I need my kids to move home. Oh, they don’t have to live with me, or even live in the same town! My dream would be within an or two so that I could... Continue Reading →

No chemicals for me, please. I didn't want to take any pills. No chemicals for me, please. I had... Continue Reading →
This is probably going to sound really weird to you and I am actually a bit hesitant to share it with you but... Here it goes. Recently, I felt God telling me to read Nehemiah. Really. I could see me with my Bible and notebook in my lap studying the book of Nehemiah. This all... Continue Reading →
Last week, I shared that my DS would be deploying soon but he has found out that he is NOT deploying for now! He is scheduled for a school later this year and it’s just not worth it to send him for just a couple of months, I guess. So, for this momma’s heart, it... Continue Reading →
This weekend I took my mom to see DD’s performance in Cinderella. It was wonderful and of course, she was beautiful. She amazes me every day. Her bravery, her talent, her determination. I ask myself all the time, “How did YOU raise kids like this?” They are both just amazing people.She didn’t have a lot... Continue Reading →
In my post Wednesday, I mentioned that I was going to make some zucchini bread, and I actually did AND… It was pretty good. It’s an old recipe I found 2006 from a blogger friend, Ask The Helpful Housewife, aka Leanne Roman. I don’t think she blogs much anymore but I did find the old post... Continue Reading →
