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.

The gift of depression
Free from depression Depression is awful. Right? I’ve been depression-free for about 20 years now after many years of struggling with this mind-zapping, soul-sucking, dream-killing illness. I certainly didn’t see it as a gift at the time. I am still in Florida. Sunshine is so good for the soul. Living in Michigan presents some challenges.… Read more

Decorating is a great distraction for anxiety
Distraction for anxiety Distraction to combat anxiety is a great coping tool. However, I don’t mean ignoring our thoughts. I mean using physical movement as a distraction. Today I thought I would show you the same pieces from yesterday but with different vignettes. This is the hutch decorated for Christmas a few years ago. It… Read more

A unique way to arrange things
Don’t think like a decorator. A unique way to arrange things means not thinking like a decorator. Now, I am not a professional decorator, but I’m always asked for my opinions, so I assume that’s because people like what I’ve done in my own home. I have a unique approach, and it’s because I also… Read more
