We've all been there. (Whether we admit it or not.) Someone cuts you off in traffic. Or you get stuck behind the person who thinks the speed limit is a friendly suggestion, as they proceed to drive 20 miles an hour below it. Getting angry about it just ain't worth it! You see the news … Continue reading Anger Management
This weekend I get to drive 35 miles one way, over 2 mountain passes to do my quarterly stock up shopping at the closest Super Walmart. It is usually an all day ordeal—driving, filling two carts, loading the car, driving, unloading the car, putting all the stuff away.So this week's post is going to be … Continue reading Short and sweet
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!

The months and years are moving at a faster speed and I should not waste a precious minute. So here's a little humor first. You’re so old that I … Continue reading Basic life support
Here in Colorado, kids are starting to go back to school. So I thought this would be a great time for us to brush up on our English grammar. And it will be short and sweet. A pronoun is any of a small set of words (such as I, she, he, you, it, we, or … Continue reading Grammar Lesson
I just love how my brain makes connections between things. It gives me ideas for these posts. I also love how a single phrase can have more than one meaning. In a recent message, my pastor told us how you can remember the order of the small epistles in the Bible. Gentiles Eat Pork Chops, … Continue reading Busting my chops
Someone broke into my house last night. I did not have to shoot them though. I just pointed the laser sight on their head, and my three cats did the rest.No, this did not really happen to me.
