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.

  • Now what?

                  Christmas is over. Now what? Take down decorations or leave them up? Freeze the rest of the cookies or donate them? Better yet, leave them out and eat them up. Nurse my wounds about gifts not received well? Nurse my wounds about the lack of participation? Stay angry Read more

  • Baby God

    According to my four-year old grandson, “Baby God” was born today. Not Jesus, Baby God. Funny, huh? On second thought, I love it. The Israelites weren’t allowed to speak the name of God so God’s son could not possibly be called “Baby God”.  Jesus was His earthly name but “Baby God” says it all. Too Read more

  • Another Christmas survived

                          Whoa! Another Christmas survived. Gosh that sounds like I had a miserable time but I didn’t. On the contrary, it was wonderful but it was hectic and there are some things I would do differently. But the one thing I did right was keep my Read more

  • Getting closer

    Wow. Christmas is literally just around the corner. By ten this morning I had cooked chicken for White Chicken Chili and browned ground beef for Spaghetti sauce. Got all my Christmas cards ready. (That’s another story. I bought them weeks ago and can’t find them. As luck would have it I had just enough various Read more

  • The birth of Jesus

    I don’t know about you, but the closer I get to Christmas, the more I think of all those projects I wanted to complete but didn’t. I love all those Pinterest DIYs that beckon me and awaken my creative juices. Making presents for the people in my life is one of the highlights of Christmas Read more

  • an unexpected gift

    (For those of you who follow both my blogs, I’m posting this to both of them today. I don’t usually do this, but I felt it as appropriate to both.) I’m just getting ready to spend some quiet time with God but I wanted to post before the day gets beyond me. I don’t know Read more
