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.

    What empowers you? I have a really simple idea.

    DISSATISFACTION What empowers you? Have you ever thought about it? I was going through the IKEA catalog tonight having decided I needed to do some updating to my tired-looking house.  Maybe some new dining room chairs. I’m going to paint something, black but I’m not nuts about the chairs no matter what color I would… Read more

  • How I changed my life

    _________________________________________________________________ How I changed my life after a seemingly minor incident, might be hard to believe. And it happened when I decided (after years of procrastination) to paint my dining room hutch. Seriously. But sometimes, it’s the simplest of changes that prompt very significant changes elsewhere. I believe it was that project that led me… Read more

    Burn your ships so you can’t go back
