Exhausted, I laid down to take a five minute nap yet it turned into a thirty minute nap. Sitting up I couldn’t focus. Things across the room were blurry. Reaching to rub my eyes I came in contact with my glasses. Chagrined realizing I had left them on. Oh my! Now they were tweaked. Unable to […]
The Christmas lights never seemed to light up. I plugged them in – didn’t work. I replaced lights – didn’t work. I even bought new ones – didn’t work. Year after year I tried new things but the lights would not light up. Pulling out the Christmas decorations I prayed it would be different. Reminiscing […]
I desperately need a root canal, but not the kind you think. I need one on my heart. It is in sad shape and the worst of it all is I have let the condition linger far too long. I’ve tried to just live with it. But I can’t anymore. Something has to be done…. […]

Clueless to what I had done, my foot hurt and I was struggling to walk. Taking it easy for the day I stayed off it but in the afternoon I needed to run to the store. Strategizing how I could walk in the store and grab a few things closest to the door, I set […]
Can I be honest with you? I’ve been deeply hurt by someone and highly offended. Just when I think I can let it go another flare up occurs. The anger, the hurt and the tears come flooding back and I am at square one once more. I decided to write that person a letter and […]
Driving to a neighboring city, I popped in a CD and listened to a sermon on marriage. Wishing I could take notes, I was thankful I’d be able to listen again another time. The pastor ended with prayer as I arrived at my destination. Returning to my car later, I started it, plugged in my […]
