Entering the Throne Room…
“In the morning, Lord, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait expectantly.” -Psalm 5:3 It’s so easy… yet so hard. I’m up early before leaving for work. I can’t just get up and go. I need time to prepare for the day. I need coffee and…

Where I’m From…
I’ve joined a month long writing group and our first assignment was to get in touch with where we came from. We were tasked with writing a poem…not my strong area! The format came from a poem written by George Ella Lyons. So, today I become a bit more vulnerable in my writing and share…

in Gifts, Grace, Healing, Hope, Humor, life happens…, Prayers, Questions to Ponder, Seasons, Struggles, The JourneyI promised myself that I would not make a list of resolutions for 2014. Each year I do it. Each year I’m disappointed in myself by mid or late January. This year I have been thinking about 2014 from a more global perspective. What is the “big picture” for my year? What do I want…

Recently, I’ve been drawn into watching Christmas movies on the Hallmark channel. I know what you are thinking… please don’t judge me!

School Days…
We are about to begin our third week of the new school year. I’m about to begin the third week of my 26th year in education. It should be 27, but I took a year and worked for a non-profit. I think back to my elementary school days. I LOVED school! I could not wait…

It’s Only a Number…
This year’s birthday sentiments started a bit earlier than my actual day after posting about a weekend getaway celebrating my upcoming 50th birthday. Another post mentioned that seeing 50 on a card seemed seemed a bit harsh for a few moments! I’ve decided to make a list of all of the birthday comments I’ve received…

In a matter of days, I will have been on this earth 50 years. There was a time in my life when I thought 50 was really old. Well, today I’m rethinking that a bit! I was recently told that the 40’s are the old age of your youth and 50’s the youth of your…

The Purification Process…

Today is Day 15 of my 21 day cleanse/detoxification/purification process. To be honest, I never imagined that I’d make it this far. Last time I tried this, I made it to Day 5 and was a blithering idiot! I cried all day long and finally decided that this journey was not right for me. Come…

One Sheep, Two Sheep, Black Sheep, Blue Sheep
Growing up, there were four words I dreaded hearing in the evening… GET READY FOR BED. What a pain in the rear that whole process was. After all, I had to get into my pj’s, brush my teeth, and go potty. Oh, to be so inconvenienced and troubled. How much time did that really take? …
