Shhh! You Talk Too Much!
There’s just so much to say, and so little time to get it all in. After all, I live alone, so when a friend calls or stops by to see me, I release all those stored-up words. I thought about that and how talking so much can really get us into trouble. We witnessed a…
Were You There When Donald Trump Became President?
Yes, I was there — glued to the returns that came in. Even my young grandchildren stayed up for the big announcement. The history books will long declare “Donald Trump became the 45th President-Elect of the United States of America on November 9th, 2016”. Who woulda’ thought that a real estate mogul, New York businessman,…
We WIN!
You and I are VIPs today — that’s because we are voters.. Some of you have already cast your ballot. Good for you! Franklin Roosevelt was right: “Nobody will ever deprive the American people of the right to vote except the American people themselves and the only way they could do this is by not…
Renewed and Refreshed
Retreat — To Refresh and Renew Yesterday, I returned from a 4-day women’s retreat in Chouteau, OK. Being on the Leadership Team and preparing for this retreat meant intentional two-times-a-week meeting and much diligence, focus and preparation by our team to give these women an event that had the potential of tremendously impacting their lives.…
What is your life echoing today?
I was in a store and I heard a small child speakable such unthinkable language. I could hardly believe my ears. Yet the parent seemed oblivious to the words. That parent or environment that the child lived in — sent out the words, and the child echoed those words back. In another situation, I witnessed…
Time for Change — FALL Back!
Summer is officially over….though it has seemed to drag its feet here in Tulsa! We’ve had way warmer temperature than usual…..but hold on…..change is coming. In fact, it’s cooler today – just in time to give a little ARK (Act of Random of Kindness) to my FB friends. I’m wanting you to get that extra…
My Prediction for November 9th
There is nothing I could say that could top this message that was recently written by one of my favorite authors, Max Lucado. I wouldn’t give up my own posting for just anyone, but because I believe these words so much, it’s as though THIS IS MY POST! I urge you to read every word…
That’s Gotta Hurt!
This photo came up on our timeline a couple of days ago, and many have commented about it. It doesn’t take much for my daughter and I to find something hilarious in the midst of a routine day. We posed for this photo at a Pumpkin Patch and of course Staci would caption it “Hmm….that’s…
The Great Unknown But Great Friends Behind
So I’m in the final countdown to two big events next Tuesday, November 8th: 1) The election – I’ll be voting based on my conscience and aiming for the party and its candidate that aligns closest to my belief system. I sure don’t know what November 9th will hold, but I know that no matter…
It Starts With the Family
As part of the leadership team on retreat for an upcoming event next weekend, we were privileged to have Tulsa’s new Bishop, David Konderla, as our guest speaker. At the end of his talk, we had the opportunity to ask him questions. One of the questions asked was “What comments would you give regarding the…
