A new approach. I hope you like it.

Sometimes, new is good. I hope you’ll overlook the fact that I am reposting. I wanted to see what this looked like. Maybe I’ll post something like this every end-of-month, so in case you didn’t read a post, they are all in one place.

So, what do you think?

Besides, trying something new is good, right? And considering it’s the end of the month, it works out well.

Plus, I like being able to see my posts this way as well. It’s been two months of reflection and sorting things out. Mental health, identifying the truly important, and relationships. Some pretty heady subjects. But what else is there to do in these two dark, cold months?

Now, I contend with this Afib diagnosis. I’m having a hard time adjusting to the medications. But I try to see things in perspective. It’s not terminal. It’s treatable. Perspective certainly helps. Besides, I’m an overcomer in Christ.

If faith doesn’t work during times of illness, when will it?

I hope you have a great weekend and blessings to each of you.

    How to commit to anything

    I came across a couple of quotes I want to share with you. Some of us make big commitments in word only. We’re going to do “this”, we’re going to do “that”. Except we never do it. I even know people who think about something so much, they even convince themselves they have done it.… Read more

    Some great cooking tips

    We were at the cabin last week and I found an old magazine. There was one page that had some great tips that I had not read before anywhere. Not even on Pinterest! So thought I would share them with you. You know how strawberries go bad so quickly? Apparently, if you store them in glass… Read more

    Why it’s ok to question God

    I had a great conversation with a twenty-two-year-old yesterday. She admitted she was struggling with her faith, that she had a lot of questions. “Good,” I replied. “What do you mean?”, she asked. Here’s how I explained it. “I wasn’t brought up in a Christian environment although I did go to Sunday School as a… Read more

  • An amazing grilled cheese and meat sandwich

    I meant to post this a few months ago. I was scrolling through my media library and saw them and realized I hadn’t done it yet. So here we go. I wish I could say this was a sandwich I had grilled but it wasn’t. It was my daughter-in-law. I have to admit though that… Read more

  • So why do I purposely go to church late?

    I told you yesterday I would share with you why, when we’re at our cabin, we purposefully go to church late. Be prepared. You are going to laugh at me. First of all, it’s a really small little church. Maybe fifty-sixty people at the most. Now instead of the pastor thinking to rope off some… Read more

  • Are you as happy as you could be?

    It’s summer. A time of family, fun, vacations, swimming, cycling, hiking………ily, fun, vacations, swimming, cycling, hiking……… But for people with mood disorders, summers often trigger depression. It’s not hard to understand why and much of it stems from comparisons. When we’re around people who seem to be having a great time, families who seem to have it all together, lots… Read more
