Soaring Above It All
Fying home from Florida a couple of days ago, just reaffirmed how mind boggling the whole notion of flying can be. That enormous mass of metal getting off the ground, and flying, seems incomprehensible. Yet, it will soar fast enough to rise to 35,000 feet above the earth. Then there’s the “no 100% guarantee” that…
Chill Out and Relax
Whew — back home after 9 days away, and there’s a lot of catching up to do! I’m recuperating from a cold, so, actually, I gave myself a little “relaxing” room in order to “chill out” about all those things that needed to get done today! Literally, there are times I hear “Chill out!” from…
It’s Good to be Back Home Again
John Denver sang “Hey, it’s good to be back home again!” And Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz, said, “There’s no place like home!” And, I’m singing and saying that today! Whether it’s a day, a week or a month away from it — there’s just no place like home. No matter where or what…
Of All the Blessings — the Ones I Love the Most Call Me Mom and Nana
Just getting ready to board my flight home to Tulsa. Thanks be to God for a beautiful cruise, lots of memories made with great friends and family, awesome excitement about the future of helping more and more people be blessed. And of all the blessings I have — the ones I love the most call…
My Amazing Dance Partner Makes Every Day Memorable
Last night, was karaoke night on the cruise. I urged my Staci to sing, and she did — blew the crowd away with her rendition of “My Heart Will Go On”. She dedicated the song to me…..and of course the tears flowed, as, once again, I remembered when my sweetheart was her #1 cheerleader and…
I’m Not Gonna Shortchange Myself
Okay — I really get inspired by some wacky things. Yesterday, I was hanging with my two youngest grandsons on the cruise. We were watching Monsters vs. Aliens. BTW — cute movie! Best part was the encouragement Susan gave to her fellow monsters. Susan was a giant because a meteor hit her. Her self esteem,…
Great Expectations
The word, HOPE, means “the exciting expectation that something GOOD is about to happen”. Charles Dickens is well known for his book, “Great Expectations”. With GREAT EXPECTATION I look forward to each day being one that is blessed and joy-filled. I’m experiencing that on this beautiful cruise I’m on. Believe me — it took work…
Stress FREE Life
At this time of my life, I often have to pinch myself at the blessings of God that seem way beyond my worthiness. Here I am on a cruise — the first one since my sweetheart and I went on our 15th cruise — it was our 40th wedding anniversary gift — to go to…
It’s Not Easy, But It Will Be Worth It
Nine months of pregnancy – twice – carrying and delivering my two precious babies –wasn’t EASY! Nausea, swollen feet eye twitching (yes, that one happened with both of my two darlings), lack of sleep, overall discomfort, and then the pain of the delivery……no, it wasn’t easy. But I am telling you…..it WAS sure worth it!…
God’s Messages to us Come In Many Ways
Do you ever have incidents happen that reinforce God’s love for you? Though there are days when things can get pretty topsy turvy, for the most part, if I watch and listen for God’s messages of love, I’ll find them. Not long ago I had one of those days. Seeing my driver’s license on the…
