I have mentally written two or three posts in the last few weeks over various subjects but haven't bothered to type anything up. My mind has been all over the place lately. I may share the reason for this later on or I may not and while I may have a page dedicated to my… Continue reading Rambling Thoughts

An Open Letter to My Readers …
Dear Friends, I’m not really sure why I am writing you an open letter since everything that I write, I feel like, is basically a conversation with you … but I was reminded this week to be careful about sitting on my high horse as it can be a long fall from that high of… Continue reading An Open Letter to My Readers …
Happy New Year!
Well, it's 2017! Can you believe it?! 2016 seemed to fly by. It's amazing how when you start measuring your years by the little ones in your life how quickly time passes! The general consensus on Facebook seems to be that 2016 was a very hard year for many people. It was a pretty average… Continue reading Happy New Year!
Words from Isaiah
Well, I wrote a different post yesterday but the Lord hasn't released me to share it which happens from time to time. So, for now, I am "sitting" on that post and we'll see how the Lord directs me to use it. Until then, I spent some time in Isaiah this morning and several verses leapt off… Continue reading Words from Isaiah

We started the week of Thanksgiving out with a horrible school bus crash in Chattanooga that saw the loss of 6 precious children. Then we had several horrible, senseless… Continue reading Making Sense of It All
The Behind-the-Scenes Look
Let's have some fun today. I often receive some questions about my glasses, my clothes, my jewelry, my shoes and what not ... so I thought I would share my "secrets" when it comes to affordable styles and whether or not keeping up with trends is worth it for a non-size 10 body. 🙂 **Please… Continue reading The Behind-the-Scenes Look
The Song in the Night
As the smoke literally dissipated throughout Knoxville last night and the sun rose, I had one song lyric running through my mind before I ever looked at my phone to see who won the presidential election. My hope is in the name of the Lord. As I read the results and was absolutely stunned by what… Continue reading The Song in the Night
A Song for this Day
I am not big on trends. I do not read the latest "it" books ... ever ... be it Christian or not. I finally upgraded to the iPhone 6 last Christmas. I still watch an occasional movie on the VCR in my bedroom ... just the movies that I have yet to find on DVD.… Continue reading A Song for this Day
It Is What It Is
"It is what it is." This is one of my most favorite statements to proclaim when things are not going my way, seem to be spiraling out of control or my presupposed plan has to be completely altered. It simply is what it is. You've just got to roll with the punches and go with the flow. I've… Continue reading It Is What It Is
