So, we woke up to a beautiful blanket of WET snow… It was a total surprise. I didn’t see it coming. DH’s work usually puts out a weather alert the night before we get any kind of usual weather that might impede driving into work, but there was nothing… we were completely blindsided. I woke...

I’m here!
So, I have been remiss in my writing this week… Monday, I had a terrible earache and went to the clinic about it and I have a sinus infection… Yuck. Ear pain can really knock you down… it can me anyway. I felt like I was just completely spent. Tuesday, I went to my acupuncturist... Continue Reading →
I love a little taste of spring…
It was a beautiful day here where I am. Did you have a beautiful day too? The sun was out and it was in the 60s! I spent a good bit time out at DD’s yesterday but ended up going out and spending a few hours with her today too!! We went out to lunch... Continue Reading →
Morning Routine?
Good morning!! I didn’t want to get out of bed this morning but I did and it was a lovely morning. I came downstairs and looked to where DH’s chair was and saw he wasn’t there so I assumed he was in the bathroom and went silently to the kitchen and made my tea. ... Continue Reading →
Monday Reset…
Happy Monday! GO CHIEFS!! I’m actually not a big football person, but it’s always exciting to have our home team head to the Super Bowl AGAIN!! It’s a new week, a clean slate, maybe even a new chapter. What do you plan on doing with it? I like the idea of a reset…... Continue Reading →
A Vicious Cycle…
Any worriers out there? What about stewers? I’m both. I worry about the unknown and I stew over it. Like REALLY stew… I worry and stew and when there is some unknown something going on, I worry myself sick. When waiting on news or information, I say everything is going to be fine and then...

An Attitude of Gratitude
Last night, I was thinking about gratitude and thankfulness. I know they are related but they aren't the same thing. In that moment, I was having a hard time separating them, so googled it and one site said that Thankfulness is a feeling and Gratitude is an attitude. I guess that's where we hear "Attitude...

Here we go again…
I’m up early this morning. It’s been a while since I’ve been up this early. I’ve been sleeping pretty well, but this morning I ache so here I am. Perhaps it’s the beautiful blanket of snow I see outside our window. It’s still coming down. Back when I was pastoring the two little churches, I... Continue Reading →
Merry Christmas Eve Musings
It’s Christmas Eve. The dog got me up extra early this morning. So I turned on the tree, made a cup of tea, and grabbed a book I’ve been wanting to read for years. DD has been trying to get me to read ever since she read it! I LOVE books. I used to read... Continue Reading →
Distracting myself with Christmas Memories
Do you have people in your life, near or far, who just suck the joy out of you? I don’t know if mine does it purposefully or not. I like to think not but it’s been going on forever. It’s not that they are mean spirited, I just don’t think they think. Even in what... Continue Reading →
