Living With No Regrets!!
That’s my new motto! In the last year, I’ve come to realize how important it is to live each day to its fullest – on purpose – making the most of the moments, the hours and the days that God gives me! We’ve all made statements like, “I wish had done this or I wish…
Our Family Legacy Lives On!!
Just four and a half months ago, my Honey went home to heaven. On April 4th, my big brother joined him. I’m sure my Honey gave him a guided tour beyond compare. Let me introduce you to my big brother – Roscoe Owen Wheat, Jr., better known to everyone as “Rocky”. Twenty-two years older than…
MARCH…..Forward: We’re On Assignment!!!
Here we are – already into the month of March! Time is literally MARCH-ing forward, and so are we! Picture a platoon of soldiers, marching….they don’t march backward….they march forward! Whether they are at their home base moving from one post to another, or are on the battlefield….they are on assignment and they will not…
Our 50th Valentine’s Day Celebration – It Was Meant to Be!
I’m still remembering. February 14, 1961 – fifty years ago today, the cutest dark haired 13 year old boy named Ronnie (aka Ron) Wuerch and me, the lankiest, 12 year old girl named Donna Sue Wheat, had our very first “official” date (chauffeured by Ron’s dad) to a church Valentine’s Banquet. The photo here is…
Teamwork — Hand in Hand – Side by Side
Many times in life, we find ourselves, hand-in-hand and side-by-side with others on similar faith journeys. Yesterday, Shannon, a precious friend, wife and mother of three young children passed from this life to heaven. I am compelled to share about her because she was such a part of our own Faith Journey. Several years ago,…
Breaker. Breaker. 1-9. Got Your Ears On??
“Breaker – Breaker 1-9” “Got a copy?” “How do you read me?” “Got your ears on?” That’s CB (Citizens Band – short distance radio) talk. Oh, yes, I was a CB-er in the 70’s and 80’s. My handle (name) was “Honeybee”! I’d say to a trucker on my CB, “You’ve got that one Honeybee. How’s…
RE-Membering is Part of the Journey
Re-membering: To recall to the mind; think of again; to retain in the memory; to remind; to recollect. It’s just past the two-month mark since my Honey graduated to heaven. We continually remember him. We talk about him, the “ways he did things”, his little quirks and his many abilities. Someone will tell us about…
No Pain…..No Gain!!
Having been a “Weight Watcher” for 24 years, I checked in this week for my monthly weigh-in. Never have I seen such a long line at Weight Watchers. Some were holding their new applications to get started, and others were like me, there for our accountability to a pact we made with ourselves – striving…
“….on Earth as it is in Heaven….in 2011”
Here it is the end of 2010 – New Year’s Eve! This is the first time in 44 years I’m not spending it with my Honey…..another one of our sacred and sweet traditions…..we just had to be hugging and kissing when the stroke of midnight came that took us into the new year! Last year…
Papa in the Box – Good News of Great Joy!
But the angel said to them, “Do not be afraid; for behold, I bring you good news of great joy which will be for all the people; for today in the city of David there has been born for you a Savior, who is Christ the Lord.” Luke 2:10,11 Christmas – so anticipated by all…
