Bear Hugs
April 24, 2021
A hug shouts love about the giver and to the receiver. But that wonderful, two-armed bear hug can only happen when our hands are empty. https://www.spreaker.com/episode/44468610

A Closer Look
December 28, 2019
Happy New Year! It’s just around the corner and I hope you are taking some time to think about your devotions for 2020. Do you have a plan or are you going to shoot from the hip?! I realize that, if you are like me, shooting from the hip is a way of life in … More A Closer Look
Sail On!
January 3, 2018
A new year, a new resolution—it’s January 3rd, how are you doing? Perhaps January 1st is just another day for you, but for me, it’s a new beginning! I love new beginnings; however, the challenge to accomplish something—sticking to it to the end—can be overwhelming! Last year’s Master Club* Award’s ceremony brought this into clear … More Sail On!
Who are you?
July 17, 2017
Ah, the Hundred Acre Woods! It’s filled with those loving characters created by A.A. Milne. As I was reading a story from the Winnie-the-Pooh collection it came to mind that we all may be characterized by one of those personalities! So, who are you? I would like to think that I’m Piglet—sweet and lovable, but, if … More Who are you?
Success!
September 8, 2016
Well, for the first time ever, we have grown cantaloupes—just had one tonight for dessert, and it was delicious! I’ve tried before, but they never completely ripened before our sunshine and warm weather gave way to fall. I love living on top of a mountain, but it cuts our growing season by two weeks. So, … More Success!
Best Moments of the Day!
April 4, 2016
Why do we need to get alone with God? One reason is to follow Jesus example. We will never totally comprehend Jesus as God while He was here on earth. We do know that part of His omnipresence and omniscience was overshadowed while He indwelt His earthly body. Certainly, He could not be everywhere at … More Best Moments of the Day!
Dancing in the Sun
October 9, 2015
Once again, I’ve purchased a solar-powered dancing flower. I really love these things, and they make great souvenirs. Every time I see it dancing in the sunlight, I picture it in the window on vacation! (I couldn’t resist capturing my roses in the photo as well. They may not dance, but they sure are beautiful!! … More Dancing in the Sun
His Grace – My Weakness
June 4, 2014
I love these dancing solar flowers! A friend and colleague had several in his classroom, and I threatened to steal one. (I really don’t think I would have, but the temptation was there!) So, one day he gave me one! It now sits on the table by my living room window, dancing merrily and bringing … More His Grace – My Weakness
Don’t forget your deodorant!
January 5, 2014
If you’re like me, putting deodorant on is just another step in the process of preparing for the day! You don’t really think about it – you just do it! Well, some mornings, my schedule is off and I get running before I’m really ready for the day! This usually happens on those rare but … More Don’t forget your deodorant!
Duh!
October 26, 2013
This blog is just the opposite of most of my blogs: the spiritual will be applied to the physical! After having Nathan home for a visit, I’ve once again put on the pounds! He tells me not to do it, but I make all his favorite dishes! Is that one of the five love languages? … More Duh!
