Renewed: From the Inside Out

Renewed: From the Inside Out Okay….so I’m in that mature season where it seems I’m noticing a lot of those advertisements and labels that shout out “Renew your youth! Reduce those lines and wrinkles! Guaranteed success or your money back! Become a new you!” And, I’ll admit, I’ve yielded to their promises and purchased some…

Cleaning Up — Cleaning Out — Cleaning In

It’s TOTAL Clean-Up, Clean-Out, Clean-In Time! Last week I posted about “cleaning up” — closets, cabinets, clothes, etc. And, I’m quite pleased to say “I conquered!” Yesterday, however, I took it another step. I realized how much time I was spending going through my emails each day. Valuable time being consumed by advertisements, alerts, and…

Who Has Your Heart?

What prompts a 15-year old to post this to his Instagram yesterday? If I was still focusing on finding photo inspirations for each day of the year, like I did last year, this one would have surely made today’s post. It made it anyway. This is my grandson, Payton Wallace. To say “I’m smiling and…

What Medicine Do You Take?

If you’re like me, your medicine cabinet has just about everything you need in it for the common cold, headache, cuts, scrapes, bug bites, sunburn, tummy ache, etc.  I’ve got aspirins, ointments, sprays, oils, ice packs, heating pads to help conquer the ailments at any given time. Yesterday morning, while getting ready for my day,…

I’m Going to Adventureland!

Ever felt like that little bird that was done with that not-so-cozy nest and was ready to take wing and fly away?  It may be called “restlessness”.  My friend and I were visiting yesterday about willing to live out loud with no regrets — ready to take on some adventures.  Quite frankly, I think I’ve…

Happy Martin Luther King Day!

When I think about that greeting, I can’t help but think about the price this man paid to have a day named after him.  With an easy googling “What does it take to have a Federal Holiday named after you?”, I found that it wasn’t such an easy thing to do.  Apparently, the notion of…

Blessing or Curse?

I’ll admit I was quite amped up with excitement when I saw gas prices yesterday (Kum n Go was $1.43/gal and Sam’s Club — where I purchased — was $1.38/gal).   Though my car wasn’t on empty, I filled it up just in case that number changes today.  A few months ago, when I posted…

Persevere and Stand Firm

That almost sounds like a contradiction, doesn’t it.  How can you persevere while you’re standing firm?  Persevere sounds like an “action” verb, while Stand Firm seems like a “motionless” verb and adverb. In this photo is a little desk plaque that Mom gave me for Christmas.  She said, “I saw it and I just knew…
