This time of year, I am always remembering my childhood Christmas Seasons on the farm. It was great growing up on the farm with my three sisters, mother and grandmother. Christmas time was so very special for all of us. It was and still is my favorite time of year. There were several things that […]

Let’s Make 2018 Worry-Free
You’re probably wondering why this image has a empty rocking chair on it, right? Well, it’s because that’s what worrying is like… Worrying is like a rocking chair. It gives you something to do, but doesn’t get you anywhere. ~Unknown You go back and forth, day after day, week after week, month after month, and […]
A Drama-Free 2018
A drama-free 2018. Doesn’t that sound good? Say it to yourself a couple of times. You’ll immediately feel a rush of peace and happiness wash over you. Really. Think about it. No drama in 2018! And you can do it! You have to decide right now if you want to be drama-free and what you […]
I’ve Seen Better Days…I Am Blessed
I woke up really, really tired this morning. Okay, I guess it is bad to start out a blog post that way, but it’s true. I guess we all have those mornings. Those mornings where we just want to pull the covers back over us, take a deep breath, snuggle in and sleep…and sleep some […]
Weekend Blessings
Weekend Blessings! Yes, I know it is Black Friday weekend and the biggest shopping weekend for a lot of us. But you can still make the days count! Don’t count the days. Make the days count. ~Muhammad Ali For a lot of people, this weekend marks the time when people start counting down until Christmas, […]
Taking All Prayer Requests
For some people, the Holidays, especially Thanksgiving and Christmas, aren’t as joyous as they may be for you and me. There are many reasons–sickness, broken relationships, depression, anxiety, financial deficits…and the list goes on and on. So I wanted to offer prayer for anyone for any reason. You don’t have to say why you want […]
Remember Me With Love
I’m saying it all the time…”Life is so short”. Even if we live a long, healthy life, life is so short. Can you believe that we have only 1 1/2 months left in 2017? Our Thanksgiving Holiday is next week. Before you know it, Christmas will be here. And then we move into 2018. I […]
Don’t Use Cruel Words
We all get angry. And we all say things we don’t mean when we are angry. But don’t let your emotions make you use cruel words. There’s a difference between saying something that isn’t good and using cruel words. Cruel words can wound the heart and soul and can take years to repair. Some damage […]
Be Sorry
It’s hard for me to be around people who can’t admit that they’re wrong. I can’t sympathize or empathize with them. Saying a simple “I’m sorry” or “What I did was wrong” isn’t who they are. When a person has this characteristic, they also have another characteristic: they aren’t successful. They aren’t successful in their […]
Remembering Our Loved Ones
Remembering our Loved Ones who are in Heaven this Thanksgiving. I have several loved ones in heaven who, since their passing, Holidays haven’t been the same. I have an uncle, brother-in-law and my beloved grandmother who have all passed on. Thanksgiving has always been a wonderful time for our family. We were all together each […]
