• Night Thoughts… About Sunday

  Sunday Mornings have been really good lately. I began going to Grandma’s church on Mothers Day, the 12th and have been sitting with her nearly every Sunday. There have been two days I have missed Father’s Day and when we recently went to the Zoo. My Dad and brother wouldn’t have been able to get…

• Projects Coming to Life

• The Ebb and Flow of Life

  The Sunday morning I got to sing a solo recently was a big high for me. It felt really good to be in my wheelhouse once again. Music was my first love, first passion and church ministry that came naturally for me with my family. The last two years everything has been difficult. I tried…

• 46 Seconds…

  This morning in Paris it happened again… There are two trans women boxers one is Algerian and a second is Taiwan. They were born males. A test done by the IOC last year banned this Algerian “woman” for higher levels of testosterone and yet both of them were let into the Paris Olympics this year.…

• The Presumptive Nominee

  We live in America the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave. Yet this very woman wants to go much further with Obama’s plan and Hillary’s to outright break all the social norms our country has stood for since our birth in 1776. Her beliefs and how she perceives the color of…

• Too Soon

  Looking for very specific items this evening at Hobby Lobby we ended up leaving with emotion threatening our tear ducts. The layers of life coupled with God’s timing at its best. The items were for the same project, but different phases of the projects I have been working on. Anyhow it took a little while…

• Saluting A Hero

  As I drove north up 41 into Terre Haute, during the first three stoplights, I began to notice the flags. Sometimes on a good windy day they are wonderful spreading their message far and wide. The message yesterday was that a former Sheriff of Terre Haute was being laid to rest. It was in his…

• Weekend Thoughts…

  Wow it was quite the weekend. My family closed on my Grandparents house after a very long process. Plus you all know about the green beans from the same day. However, that was before exhaustion hit us in various stages. On Friday I did most of the green bean preparations, but my parents did help…

• A Green Bean Surprise

  We had a nice cool walk today for a nice change. Afterwards I ate breakfast, but then Mom and I took a little trip into Linton. When we got back we were surprised to see our neighbor, his dog and a big bucket of freshly taken out of the garden green beans. Even from where…
