The Morning After
For some reason I don’t remember sleeping very well that first night. Not having my medicine was a big part of it, but I did do a lot of resting in the hospital waiting on the Anesthesiologist, and then waiting on my original bed in the pre-op area again. I spent no less than an…

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…

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…

2 Years…
Since I turned 30 my life has changed drastically. I remember thinking in my 20’s listening to others about surgeries how amazing it was I had not needed one up to that point in my life. Yeah I guess I should have knocked on wood, first. Literally every 2 years something has happened from my…
