• Parent Time

  Today I spent the morning with my Dad. Both of my parents had appointments in different directions. My brother was all too happy to go with Mom and so I went with Daddy. Mom just had therapy, but Dad was having a checkup on his eyes. This morning I was unsure what to expect of…

• Significant life events or the passage of time influence your perspective?-Writing Prompt

  I believe I have been answering this question with both of my Grandfathers deaths for nearly 20 years. This week literally is the 19th marking of Grandpa Freddy’s death at our church after giving his final testimony on this earth. Tuesday, February 6th has been an emotional roller coaster for me. It took several years…

• February Blues

  I have long felt as if this month is the hardest month to live through. Too many hearts and couples stuff going on for my taste. Not because I don’t love love, but because of how lonely it was for all the singles including me. Even with a boyfriend it’s still hard to not feel…

• Sunday Thoughts

  Today has felt crazy to me. I woke up feeling incredibly numb and was against the idea of getting out of my bed. My night ended in disappointment. After making plans for a goodnight rendezvous through a phone call but my boyfriends internet went out while he was doing some business emails. Sometimes this online…

• Birthdays

  January is no longer the happy month of becoming a year older like it was when I was younger. Somewhere after college it became simply a measuring stick. Now that milestone takes me back to younger days when my aunt or uncle were making my birthday cakes and I had all of my grandparents and…

• A Happily Ever After

  Some of you may remember some articles last Fall about car accidents. I had the first, my sister-in-law the second and then the 3rd was the Preachers daughter at my parents church. When I first heard the wedding would be in January I have to admit my envious heart said that it was my birthday…

• Sunday A Day To Rest

  I mentioned in the writing prompt a little disagreement between me and my other half. Gosh when we are not in one accord we both feel lousy. He didn’t sleep well, which most likely means he was working and I had trouble myself. Honestly I’m not sure if it’s a disagreement or we just needed…

• 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…
