Smash and Grab

While my children and I were in church this morning some thieves came into the church parking lot, broke out the window in my car and took all my electronic equipment. Along with plenty of other items. Four or five other cars got hit at the same time. We didn’t hear a thing. It wasn’t [...]

Scaring the Postman

My oldest son takes medicine and I had to go get it from the post office this morning (our insurance allows us to get it through the mail). I was looking quite attractive. (giggle,giggle) No makeup at all. Hair pulled up in a clip. Jogging pants and a sweatshirt. To my credit I did wash [...]

Samson the Shedder

I’ve mentioned before that we have a cat named Samson. Samson is a long, long, (did I mention long?) haired cat. He is a cat that sheds. It drives me nuts. I’m constantly getting the lint brush after him. I have even gone so far as to get one of my used dryer sheets [...]

Do Me A Favor?

I’ve been blogging for a little over a year and have really enjoyed it. The writer in me is having a ton of fun. So here is the deal….My husband fixed me up with a blog map so that I could see the places that people are logging on at to read my blog. It [...]

Okay. I Confess…

Alright, I confess…I’m having a stay in my pajamas type of day. I know I need to get dressed eventually but for right now I’m pretty comfortable. I’ve been REALLY busy the first two days of the work week, and I will be REALLY busy the last two days of the work week so I [...]

Give Me A Break

Don’t you hate it when twig people (movie stars, models) say something like, ” oh yeah. I used to be fat when I was growing up.” Puh-leeze they used to weigh 100 lbs instead of 95! Arrggghh! I was flipping channels the other day and a former model was on talking about how she gained [...]

Baptism of A Famous Muslim

Hmmm……What to think of the converted Muslim man who was baptized by the Pope on Easter? Now, this man says his and his wife’s lives are being threatened. Hmm…….again. Muslims upset that he converted and upset that he felt the need to be baptized in such a public way. I don’t know his reasoning for [...]

Because He Lives

Because He lives I can face tomorrow….because he lives all fear is gone…because I know who holds the future, my life is worth the living just because He lives. Christmas is special because it is Jesus, the Son of God, coming to Earth as a baby. Easter is amazing because it is the death [...]

Building Forts

As a child I was outside a lot. I remember riding my bike down our country road, hitting bumps and trying to make my bike go airborne. I remember trekking through the woods with my sister and neighborhood friend, Missy. We made “a fort” in the woods over behind the clothesline in our backyard. [...]

Lord Willing and The Creek Don’t Rise!

I’m sure everyone has seen the flooding all over the midwest. They say that it’s going to get worse before it gets better. This morning I watched a story about some people in their truck (with a long horse trailer behind them) that were stuck in the middle of rising water. Evidently, the road had [...]
