I love them! I absolutely love them! Those “aha” moments that make you wonder how you did not see that before. You know, like chocolate is scrumptious! Like it doesn't matter that it is 16 degrees below zero, ice cream is still a yummy, satisfying snack! Like shoveling snow is a great workout! Well, not … Continue reading How did I not see that?

Pink Slip
I always feel sorry for that poor guy named Will. You know, when in the movies, the person in charge says, “Fire at will!” Fire at will is a command given to allow the troops to fire when they are ready. They use their discretion and choose their targets. It gives the soldier a greater … Continue reading Pink Slip
What?!
I'm sure you can relate. You're having one of “those” days. Everything is coming at you from every angle, at the exact same time, and you are just trying to breathe. Well I had one of those days this past Wednesday. I decided I needed a break, and logged onto WordPress to read some posts … Continue reading What?!

It takes my mind off the negative and focuses on what positive things I do have in my life. I have been taking it to a new level lately by witnessing what I am … Continue reading Things I’m grateful for
Struck home
With the holiday season upon us, home means different things to different people. For some, it is family gathering and reconnecting with loved ones. For others, it is being patient with family members who always knows how to push your buttons. Home really struck home with me this past Wednesday.

It was the week after the last filing deadline for the 2021 tax season, and I was just beat. God knew I needed to take some time off. So I did. I read and … Continue reading Goodness
Grains of sand
Any of you who have read my posts for a bit know I like math and science. I like to see how things work and add up. So after reading a couple of things in the Bible, I got curious. I have a little 3 minute hourglass that I use when doing my stretching exercises. … Continue reading Grains of sand
I speak sheep
Well as promised, I will now share with you why I have learned to speak sheep. About a month ago, I looked out the window because I heard a ruckus. And what to my wondering eyes did I see? But two Texas long horn cattle tussling with our two bulls! How did they get here? … Continue reading I speak sheep
A week of Mondays
I know you've had them. Don't deny it. And you are so incredibly grateful when it is over. Yes, I'm talking about a whole week full of Mondays! This past week was one of them for me.

Not giving it the time of day
Last time I checked, you cannot buy more hours in a day from Amazon. (I know, I've checked.) Each and every one of us is given the same 24 hours. It's up to us how we choose to spend them. As for me, I have been diligently striving not to waste them on negative things. … Continue reading Not giving it the time of day
