Today Is A Gift

Yes, yes it is. Of course, every day is a gift; we all know that. You all know that I love Saturday. It’s the one morning in the week when I catch a little more z’s and don’t have to rush out the door to work. We have a few things on our to-do list…

What If

About a month ago, in this little blog, I shared a conversation I had with my husband. He was telling me about how he prays for satan. Yes, you heard that right. It is such an interesting perspective, and over the past month, since writing that little blog, I’ve been thinking a lot about the…

Make the Date

A few nights ago, as my husband and I were making dinner, we chatted about how it was getting dark earlier 😦 . Ugh, I don’t like this time of year, not just because it gets dark early, but also because it’s harder to see the sunset from our windows now. At any rate, we…

You’re God

Just a simple little blog this morning. It’s been quite a few weeks, and this morning, when I was listening to my favorite playlist, this song came on. Wow, ya, I’d say it was timely. Sometimes friends, all we can do is just be still. We have to be still and know that He is…

The Race

One of my dearest friends passed away almost eight years ago after fighting a fierce battle with an ugly disease known as ALS. She fought that battle with grace, if that is possible with this disease. Not long after she was officially diagnosed, she asked a group of her friends to figure out a way…

Gloomy Day?

Here in SW Florida, we are in the final stretch of our rainy season, and dare I say it, hurricane season, shhh… About another 6 weeks or so, and we’ll be on the other side of it. We’re going to keep praying that things stay status quo in the hurricane department 🙂 . Sorry, I…

Giving Grace

Newsflash…we’re not all perfect. Just in case you were wondering if it was just you, or if others make mistakes too. Well, breathe a sigh of relief because we’re all in the boat together. We are humans; we make mistakes, sometimes doozies. We do silly things that sometimes make no sense. We hurt those we…

The Friends

I’m so fortunate to have wonderful friends. My “circle” isn’t huge, but those that I consider close friends are more like family to me 🙂 . I’m guessing I’m not alone in that regard; you all are blessed in that way, too. This morning, as I was thinking about my friends and smiling to myself…

It’s Ok to Hurt

Over the past several weeks, if you’ve been following this blog, you’re aware that our family has been going through a difficult time. However, I have friends who, in turn, are going through difficulties. I know many out there are struggling, facing challenges, and feel lost or alone. A few nights ago, I found myself…

The Christmas Effect

I’ve never been a fan of seeing Christmas items in the stores starting in August. I’m a believer that Thanksgiving is such an important Holiday and one that deserves respect, and I don’t like that we kind of just skip over it and go right to Christmas. Now, having said that, I do love the…
