I am sitting here this morning with all kinds of thoughts swirling through my mind. The horrible actions of the past few days have me feeling a little more depressed about the state of our nation than normal. I am definitely a glass is half-full kind of girl, but I am having a hard time…
Have you ever had something terrible happen to you, only to find out that something good came from it? There has been a few times in my life where the very thing I had hoped for actually happened, and it turned out to be the worst thing EVER!!! About 10 or 12 years ago, Joe…
Good morning, I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend! I have been blessed to have my son, his wife, and my three grand-babies from Tennessee in to visit with me. They will be staying for a few days, so I am sure my smiles will be extra big on the blog. Today I want…
This week I have told you a story about my daddy and how much he means to me. I have shared a small story of Joe, and some of our interactions with our children. But Fathers Day is not limited to our Earthly fathers. It is also a day to be thankful for our Heavenly…

Kindness, a simple act that can mean so much. In church last Sunday our Preacher talked about kindness, and then in my woman’s study group, we once again talked on the same subject. That was twice in one 2 hour period of time. Kindness is not something that costs a lot of money, and it…
Today is my last day in the 40 Day Prayer Challenge. It actually took me 42 days. I like starting my day with a devotional, but when I had company for a couple days, that didn’t happen. I have enjoyed my Draw The Circle book, and have since then ordered another couple books that will…
Women helping women. I have been at a woman’s club convention this past few days, and the central theme that surrounds me, is “Women helping Women.” It is so wonderful to be surrounded by 200 women who are all rooting for you, who are all willing to lend a helping hand, and who are all…
