• God’s Will

  Wow the only place to start is the beginning. A week ago. Last Friday morning I left home with my parents fairly early to go to an appointment up at Terre Haute. Mom was getting some results from her stress test back from the week of Thanksgiving. It had been scheduled since the week before…

• Musing About My Sunday

  Why does it feel like a decade sometimes happens in the span of one Sunday? This morning I woke up underneath a shadow it seems. The night before left my thoughts in a twisted mess. Sundays were always Church days but as equally important all of our family was at church both services and sometimes…

• The Timing of Pain…

  While preparing for the past weekend familiar pains have resurfaced. Back in October I had a shot in my wrist. It took a good while for that shot to finally dissolve. Thankfully. I only wish it had lasted a bit longer. I am grateful I was able to do both Cantata’s and didn’t realize how…

• Bruised Feet; A Full Heart

  This weekend saying it’s busy has been an understatement. There has been some craziness around here so it has actually been a welcome distraction for me. Music is the passion and talent God gave me from birth. It’s the gift that continues to give. As of this moment I am literally tied emotionally to three…

• Saying Goodbye…

  Yesterday was a beautiful and yet bittersweet day. It wasn’t long after Grandpa Leo died that the Pleasantville Preacher moved on. I don’t remember all of the specifics I was 13 nearly a month away from my 14th birthday. This year after listening to some of the ladies who actually know the details and specifics…

• Listening To God’s Calling!

  Just a couple of hours ago I got a memory notification from Facebook. It was notifying me of my post from a year ago today. My photos were accompanied by a brief message about being in the ER due to the accident from 3 days earlier on August 1st of last year. Talk about a…

• Residual Thoughts from Sunday

  Going back to Saturday night. My niece likes to text me late I was already in bed but not asleep yet. I heard my messages go off while another message went off on my phone at the same time so I missed hers. I forgot about hearing that first regular message and had turned off…

• Sunday Night Thoughts

  It has been quite the weekend. Most of my Saturday was working on the other part of my special project. However, it seems like when it rains it pours and lately it is pouring down cats and dogs around here. We somehow still have stink bugs around here and bugs that we have sprayed and sprayed…

• My Wednesday Morning…

  Since I found out today would be the viewing for this man I have to admit I have dreaded it. For some reason, even though I know the ladies that worked at Dialysis have never actually been seen at the viewings of the patients they say they love, don’t show up. I was early today…

• Movie Memories

  Tonight is the debut of “The Biltmore Christmas.” For weeks this show has been on commercials for the Christmas Hallmark season. As much as I have a love and hate relationship with Hallmark I love this show already. About two months ago I was invited after church to a friends house with other church friends;…
