I was over the moon to be in New York City last week with my daughter! We have never taken a trip, just the two of us, so it was super special. We had no real itinerary either, other than having secured tickets to two Broadway shows, which made it even better. We were prettyContinue reading “NYC Trip Highlights & Epiphanies”

NYC Bound
First time experience for me and my girl! We get to take a girls’ trip to New York City… just us! I’m excited, but I miss my hubs already. We are ALWAYS together, and we love traveling together. It was hard to leave him this morning. I hope he knows how much I appreciate thisContinue reading “NYC Bound”
2022 blessings, after all.
I sat this morning with my Bible and a highlighter in one hand and my phone in the other. I read, drew lines, and made notes, then switched over to my phone to share a few verses with a friend who is hurting. I then flipped over to Facebook to participate in a few conversationsContinue reading “2022 blessings, after all.”
Faith Over Worry
Sister, you can’t worry AND rely on faith at the same time. You’ve been worrying, and that’s fine. Now…enough of that. Remember that worry places focus on the worst possible outcomes. Faith focuses on desirable outcomes. Which should fill your head and heart? Lean on your faith, even if you only have a little. #mustardseedfaith
Writer. Author. Obstacles. Support.
I have always, always wanted to write a book. I still do. The feat of compiling 50,000+ words into a succinct, meaningful read, holding in my hands the actual book with a glossy cover, seeing it on a bookstore shelf, finding it offered for sale on Amazon, getting an email from someone who was inspiredContinue reading “Writer. Author. Obstacles. Support.”
Goodbye, 2022.
Reflections of 2022…yep, I think many of us are in the process of looking back over the last year lately, either consciously or subconsciously, and taking an inventory of life’s events. We are reminiscing fondly with a warm smile in our hearts, or we find ourselves visibly wincing as we recount the unsavory. For me,Continue reading “Goodbye, 2022.”
Bad church? Bad church people?
People do stupid stuff. They say the wrong things. They’re clique-y and exclusive. They fail to offer a smile or speak to you when you walk by, even if you smile or speak first. Sometimes they’re envious, judgemental, gossipy, and self-righteous. Oh, and I’m talking about some people at church. Yep, we got mad atContinue reading “Bad church? Bad church people?”
Be the content.
I read a lot about how to blog, since I pretty much suck at it, at least consistency-wise. I read a tip recently that stood out… Be the content. Hmmm. I don’t know now. When I started this little endeavor a while back, I was set on being open and honest, sharing even the rawestContinue reading “Be the content.”
Teenagers
I don’t really ask much from people. It’s not that I don’t need anything ever. Hear me out. It’s that for most of my adulthood, I have kicked butt and taken names. I handled the things. I did the things. I said the things. I didn’t ask for help or a handout. I didn’t knowContinue reading “Teenagers”
“Thicc” and Thin
Moms and Teenage Girls, what a time to be alive if you’re fat! If you got a little junk in the trunk, today’s culture calls it “thicc”. That skinny “Twiggy” who took the fashion world by storm in the late 60’s, with her boyishly thin figure, wouldn’t stand a chance. Big booties, and even theContinue reading ““Thicc” and Thin”
