Today I wanted to post a message that isn't funny. It's not even my words, but it's a message stirring in my heart. 14 if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I…
Physical Therapy. Sounds like a good thing right? I mean it's therapy. By definition therapy is "treatment designed to relieve or heal." But I'm on to them now. Oh yes, I figured out their game. It's PE in disguise. And I hated PE. This so-called therapy is all a facade to get you in the…
It's dark as pitch at 5:30 a.m. I know this because I walk my neighborhood every morning before work (ok, ok most mornings). Oh sure I carry a flashlight, but it does very little to dispel the darkness. Who knows what's lurking in those shadows? As I step out my front door, my surveillance tactics are…
The things we do for our kids. I have always enjoyed helping my daughter get ready for the prom or homecoming or cotillion or the annual pig festival dance or whatever formal occasion we had next on the calendar. There's a lot that goes in to preparing for these events... that is if you have a…

Having a master hurricane preparer has come in really handy this week as our family, along with the rest of the eastern U.S., braced for the arrival of Hurricane Matthew. My darling hubby has numerous detailed and specific disaster preparedness levels. Make no mistake...there's…
It took me nearly 2 hours to get home from work Friday night and I was in a great mood when I got home. My hubby was shocked. So was I. Just a few days ago this would have sent me spiraling. Ever been through one of those times when nothing... literally nothing… makes you…
Much to my husband's dismay, I rarely put gas in my car until there is nothing short of a prayer left in the tank. I consider it efficient time management as I prioritize the tasks on my list. Getting gas becomes the top "to-do" when the warning light comes on. Until then, I have baseball…
You always hear people talking about what items they would grab from their home if there was ever a fire. With only minutes to get out of your house losing everything you own, what would you save? I’ve pondered this question numerous times over the years and assuming the family was all safe, I figured…
