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 is your perfect day? I think I had one.

    It isn’t often I have what I could call a “perfect”day. Today was close though. Would you like to hear about it? First of all, I slept good the night before and I was up by 6:30. I’m trying to get up earlier all the time. It was a sunny day. My husband and I Read more

  • How is everyone? Really, I mean.

    I haven’t really addressed what is happening in our nation right now. The unrest, the protests, the riots. It seems like everyone else has though. And I don’t think I will today except to say that I don’t think it hurts anyone to at least examine our hearts. I want to look inside and make Read more

  • How I use plastic tablecloths on my deck.

    See that orange glider? See those wonderful covers? They are plastic tablecloths from Walmart. I merely wrap the cushions just like you would a gift and use clear packaging tape to tape it down. I didn’t take off the old plastic cloth. It just adds another waterproof layer. I just put them on so they Read more
