• A Fact of Life… & Dialysis

  This morning I was rehashing with my boyfriend SAD-seasonal affective disorder. I have had to live with it with some family members. Most recently the weather has made walking much colder and harder to walk outside. Around here there aren’t too many good areas for exercise for free. Stress and lack of sunlight during the…

• One Name

  Do you have this problem too? I saw this woman and knew I worked with her, but for the world I could not think of her name. It was frustrating… and thankfully I was able to see her again before we left the store. It’s funny when I was working, there were just people I…

• Answered Prayers

  Yesterday morning after I was dressed and ready for church I finally looked at my phone. Every other Sunday throughout the year we get my niece, but she has had multiple reasons to not come with either me or my parents to church. Her father was raised in church. He now seems to think Sunday…

• Tea Time

  Finally after holding on to it for a couple of weeks; I tried it. Sunday morning two weeks ago I was able to give a friend her Christmas Card and then when I got to church that night I got this gift from her that evening along with some other ladies. Have you tried Chai…

• Cleaning For The Soul

  I decided sometime during the early part of December to clean out my room. Christmastime is absolutely the perfect time, right? Probably not, but I needed it not just for my room, but for my soul. Do you ever get that way? Needing to make not just a change of your venue, but to clean…

• A Constant Love

  The past two years could not have been more distinctly different for me. Yet I know God has been working on my heart in different ways beyond even my understanding at the time. I simply lived day to day trying to mete out with each obstacle as best as I could. There have been two…

• A Sweet Day Despite The Shadows

  I woke up before 6:30 with a horrible pain in my shoulder blade. Then when I moved around I felt it go down my back more. I used two forms of heat before I got the ice-heat to roll on. Although I needed some help getting it done from Mom. This really hurt I haven’t…

• Star of Wonder

  Day 25 was Christmas Day. The Purpose of Christmas is so that We Could Have Courage. Through the years this has been a struggle for me. Growing up in Church and having a Music Ministry was nourishing for me; it never felt like work or a burden. It was my ministry and such a passion…

• 1924

  There are so many photos taken that I nearly don’t need words. If a photo is literally worth a 1000 words these photos should speak for themselves right? This little guy looks pretty happy doesn’t he? He was an only child at this point. Bill and Mary, his parents lived in Carlisle and went to…

• Christmas Baking

  Okay so last night I made some Peppermint Fudge. My parents may disown me, but my boyfriend likes the idea of peppermint in his fudge or maybe even quite a bit more. Tonight I was going to try to make a couple of things but when I make plans the Lord smiles at them while…
