I’m back! Did you miss me? Don’t answer that! I don’t want to know, lol! After all the stuff happening last time I wrote, I needed to take a break! So here we are again, with me sharing a quick (maybe not so quick) thought. I wanted to tell you about something that happened recently. It…
All H-E-Double- Hockey- Sticks has broken loose in my life! And I know exactly what started it. About 5 weeks ago, my husband and I sat down together and completed some goal setting. That’s right, we sat down TOGETHER and wrote out our goals. (If you are married you should really give it a try. …
It’s time to get real about something that I (and some of you) am dealing with! It’s something that most of us don’t speak about – we just “deal with it” because that’s just “what women do”. We take care of our homes, our spouses, our jobs/businesses, and our children (or other people’s children). …
I put gas in my car this week! I know, that’s nothing earth shattering right? Well for me it is because in the 16 years that I have been married, I can count on both hands how many times I have actually had to put gas in my own car. See, although my husband does not…
For the last 3 days I have been sick and tired. As I type this post, I am in the bed with juice, tissues, and tea beside me. It all started a few weeks ago. I was running on empty from working late hours and trying to get my kids ready to go back to…
It was a simple fishing trip. My husband and son went with men from my church to have a little fun. I figured that they would probably come back with stories to share, dirty clothes, and a few bug bites but I didn’t think they would come back with a new member of the family! Francis. …
I’m a yes girl. I admit it. Need someone to help you with a task? I’ll do it. Can’t figure something out? I’ll help you. I am your go-to girl! The problem is that I sometimes give of myself at the sacrifice of my own needs or priorities- especially if I care about you. Now…
During my morning commute this week, I was listening to the radio when the radio host shared a testimony from a pastor who visited his church. The visiting pastor has a daughter who he was told would be born at 3 lbs 4 oz without fully developed ears or eyes. An amniocentesis procedure confirmed it. He and…
You won’t believe what happened to me! I was home sitting at my desk working by my window, when I heard a weird sound. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw something fly past me. It took a few minutes to register but it was a small bird! At first I panicked but soon I…
Hunter was a good fish. My son won him playing a game of ring toss at a county fair. I was pretty sure he wouldn’t last more than a week. Let’s face it, those carnival fish are usually doomed from the start! But wouldn’t you know it? That darn fish survived! I bought a small…
