What Was I Thinking…

The last couple of days I’ve been trying to decide what I would post about next.  I have a couple of projects that I’ve completed and a couple more in the process but as Holy week is approaching I really wanted to write a little more of a faith related post. I’ve had several thoughts during my recent days and … Continue reading

Silence Is Golden

Tonight there is silence…no one in the house but me.  Silence… Ok, well maybe not silence, since I can hear the hum of certain electronics in my home and the dog barking once in a while, but definitely quiet compared to normal. I know that old saying “silence is golden” is actually referring to not saying things that you shouldn’t, but tonight, … Continue reading

A Gift of Love

Happy Valentines day! I hope this is not one of those days that you wish would not roll around every year.  I’ve never really understood why some people find this day such a bummer, maybe that’s because I’ve been married for such a long time (like an eternity or at least something along those lines) that I don’t remember what it’s … Continue reading

Planting Tulips

Today I planted some Tulip bulbs in my front flower bed.  I know…they really should have been placed in the ground before January, but at least they are in the ground, right? About 3 weeks ago I was given 120 Tulips and 36 daffodil bulbs,  I was extremely excited to come home and find them sitting in my garage! We have a wonderful neighbor who … Continue reading

One Solitary Life

I heard this on the radio today and first thing looked it up so I could post it.  It really made me think about how one life (one person) can affect other lives. One Solitary Life – He was born in an obscure village, the child of a peasant woman.  He grew up in still another village, where He worked … Continue reading

Heartache

This weekend has been a tough one for me as I’m sure that it has been for all of you too!  I did my best to avoid watching the news because I didn’t think I could handle watching all of the private (or not so private) emotional moments of the families and people affected by the shootings at Sandy Hook Elementary School.  … Continue reading

Laughing At The Things That Make Me Crazy

This morning right before the daughters and I headed out the door for work and school we had a laugh out loud moment in our home.

Stepping Out

2 timothy 1-7 blog 11_9

I have this project…..lol! “What’s new” you may say, but seriously this is a big project.  I was rooked into (nobody is every rooked into serving), actually I was asked kindly, to oversee all of the decorations at my church’s women’s ministry Christmas Birthday Bash.  Everyone loves to organize a good party,… ok so not everyone, but I do, so, when I was asked, I really wanted to … Continue reading

Six Months Of Silence

It’s kind of sad when you have a blog and you haven’t written a post in 6 months!  It seems like forever since I’ve found inspiration to write. Truth is, I’ve been absent because I truly felt like I was drowning, and in order for me to keep my head above water, something had to give.  To make matter’s worse….there were some things that would … Continue reading

Two-fer Tuesday

Tuesday was a busy day; all day long I was looking for something,  besides the obvious things, that could be added to my gratitude list.   I left work right on time, because I was eager to get home and make dinner for the family that was coming over to visit.  While driving home I was going over the day in my head, searching my … Continue reading
