In my efforts to be more mindful to express gratitude daily, I realized that sometimes it is the simple pleasures that brings us to a place of thankfulness. Like the way my mouth feels after brushing my teeth. A warm bed. The first cup of coffee in the morning. Vanilla lip balm. Cocoa butter lotion. … Continue reading Flames
It was like a nightmare and horror movie all rolled into one. It felt like slow motion. I'm desperately climbing out of a dark pit toward the light. I get just to the top and as I claw my way to dry ground, a hand grabs my ankle and tries to pull me back into … Continue reading Hopefully
We are just one week away from celebrating Thanksgiving here in America. I like the idea of a reminder to celebrate thankfulness, but also realize that it is something I need to do every day, not just once a year. So I have been striving to have an attitude of gratitude in 2020, well because … Continue reading Attitude of Gratitude
I hope you are in need of a good laugh today, because boy do I have a doosie! I was reminded of this story today as it was so squishy by the chicken pens. Brace yourselves! The recipe for this soup is as follows: Take 8 feet of piled up snow, let it melt naturally … Continue reading The Chicken Poop Soup Story

He incorrectly sang the lyrics as “pour some shook up ramen.” His wife/girlfriend was able to … Continue reading What?

I learn so many lessons about God at my ranch, so I am going to share one with you now. … Continue reading Molting Season
The moment was charged with electricity. Absolutely every head was turned in my direction. All eyes were on me. I could feel it. I knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that in that moment, everyone wanted to be me. Why? Because I'm abundantly well-endowed and it shows. Defined, it is someone who has larger … Continue reading Well-endowed
Okay my dear followers, it is time to hit the pause button. In the Bible, the Hebrew word Selah is used to designate a pause. It is a chance for a praise break. And don't we all need that nowadays! A short bit ago, I sent a fellow blogger and friend, Tim McGee, (Just a … Continue reading Happy Dance
My last post was about rescuing a lady bug from drowning in the cow's water tub. This post is about another of God's creation, only on a much bigger scale, the humpback whale. I watched a mama and baby swimming gracefully together, and had another “awe” moment. No, I didn't watch them swimming on the … Continue reading Frolic more
