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.

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

  • What we call success isn’t what God calls success.

    We get all got up with the results of our obedience to God. God cares little for the end result. For God, the process IS the end.

    My great garage sale finds. You’ll like them.

    Thought I’d share what I found at garage sales Saturday. The tins were fifty cents. The Ritz can is an antique so I probably won’t paint that one. But the other two? Well, you know me and paint, especially spray paint. These little plates are plastic with gold trim. I fell in love with them. Aren’t they… Read more

    the week in review and how much I hate hot weather

    This week was hot. This is unusual for my part of the world. Ask me if I like hot weather “Rebecca, do you like hot weather”? “No, I do not”. But then I don’t like really cold weather either.  I have a narrow comfort zone when it comes to temperature. I’m fine with mid-seventies to mid-eighties… Read more

    This is so NOT a cooking blog

    How did I end up sharing recipes? I’m not a cook. Oh yea, I remember. I’m an aspiring “chef”. That just means I’m trying to do a better job overall of cooking and planning meals. I’m trying to cook healthier as well. So a couple of weeks ago, I made this meal. The potato salad… Read more

  • Hey, I took my first baby CSS step!

    I don’t usually post twice in one day but in addition to becoming a “chef” (Remember, this is said tongue-in-cheek.) I’ve decided to learn CSS. All you bloggers out there know what that means. For the rest of you, let’s just say. WHOA! Even the guy on the help desk told me it’s really hard… Read more
