The attorney tells the accused, "I have some good news and some bad news." "What's the bad news?" asks the accused. "The bad news is, your blood is all over the crime scene, and the DNA tests prove you did it." "What's the good news?" "Your cholesterol is 130.” Some days are just flat out … Continue reading Let the sparks fly!

Hotter than Africa
Across a good deal of the United States we are experiencing record high temperatures. At my house we have an outdoor thermometer that has a digital readout inside. When I ask my husband how hot it is, he replies, “Hotter than Africa!” So my brain made a connection when a friend of mine recently told … Continue reading Hotter than Africa
Lot in life
My BFFAE (Best Friend For All Eternity) said she was reading in Ecclesiastes, so I decided to join her. So you can thank her for what I'm posting today! (She's such an amazing woman of God and I'm blessed to have her in my life!) The traditional definition of one’s “lot in life” is a … Continue reading Lot in life
Wot?!
I hate auto-correct... It always makes me say things I don't Nintendo. As I was typing my rough draft of this post, I thought auto-correct would choke on my word wot. But it didn't. Apparently it stands for World Of Tanks, and online gaming platform. My use of it is different, Waste Of Time. (Of … Continue reading Wot?!
Rough week
After the close call that I shared with you in my last post, it has been a rough week. God's provision saving me from an ugly outcome was beyond amazing. I had headaches, a lump on the top of my head, aches and pains in my neck and shoulders, but can report that I am … Continue reading Rough week
Misery loves company
I was thinking of making the title of this post, “Clouds of Doom” like the picture with this post, but thought better of it. Or as humor columnist Dave Barry would say, “But that would make a great name for a rock band.” Miserable people like others to be unhappy. They just don't understand someone … Continue reading Misery loves company
Passionate
When you are passionate about someone, you express it by showing how much they mean to you. You go above and beyond what is normal, because of your intense love for them. During this season of Easter, Jesus did just that. That's why it is called “His passion.” So when a fellow blogger did a … Continue reading Passionate
Perimeter security
I know, I know. No one likes listening to a whiner, but we got hit with another snowstorm where I live and the wind was blowing too, which pushed the snow into all the beautiful perimeter paths we shoveled along the fence to keep the dogs in the yard. This winter I feel like a … Continue reading Perimeter security
Bulletproof
I remember when I was in my late teens and early twenties. Hey, don't laugh! I can remember that far back! I knew absolutely everything, and felt like I was bulletproof. Nothing was going to come against me or harm me. Then I grew up when reality set in. I've been thinking a lot about … Continue reading Bulletproof
Scorpions
Rest easy, dear readers, this is NOT another tale from the ranch! But it does involve scorpions! (So reader discretion is advised.) Scorpions are predatory arachnids. (ie: spiders!) They have eight legs, and are easily recognized by a pair of grasping pincers and a narrow, segmented tail, often carried in a characteristic forward curve over … Continue reading Scorpions
