When a Song Speaks

Every now and then I drop a song here in this little blog. It breaks up my little ramblings and most of the time the message is very timely. Sometimes, like this morning, a song speaks to you and you just keep hitting that replay button. Ya this morning was one of those times. So,…

Live Life

I read a beautiful story last night, posted by a friend on her social media page. It is a story of love, hope, and the ability of God’s children to live life. You see, her elderly father has been having health issues recently, including a stroke. He was scheduled to have surgery in the near…

Share the Sky

Last night, a friend sent me a text message. It was a picture of the most beautiful sunset over the water. She said she had received it from a friend. When she saw it, she said, “It made me think of you”. That makes me smile. Later in the evening, I was checking the social…

How ‘Bout Brunch

Later this morning, we’re going to treat ourselves to brunch with friends we haven’t seen in quite a while. Actually, that’s not entirely true. We see them almost every week. They are neighbors and we’ll chat briefly while their fur baby is walking them in the mornings 🙂 . However, we haven’t been able to…

The Simpleness

Last night my husband and I stopped at a local Italian restaurant on the way home from work. It’s great to be able to dine at some restaurants during the off-season without having to make a reservation weeks in advance 🙂 . As we were leaving I noticed the gray clouds. Yep, it’s summer in…

A Birthday Connection

Ahh, the start of a long holiday weekend. I must admit that this is one of my favorite holidays. Those of you who are new to this little blog may not know that I share a birthday with this nation. Yes, being born on the 4th of July has its perks, you know fireworks, parades,…

Sing

Remember yesterday in this little blog, I shared how sometimes I just share simple things. Well, today is another one of those little blogs. It’s been a busy week. There are several things I could share here today, but you know what, let’s just all take a break. Step away from whatever is weighing on…
