How Rich I Am
This blog was inspired from listening to Air1’s Christian radio DJ. He and his co-DJ were asking their audience what they did to economize. One listener said she cuts open the toothpaste tube and scrapes out enough toothpaste for several more brushes! That’s beyond my squeezing the tube with the use of a straight edge…
The Great Multiplier – Little Can Be Very Much
In our daily text or voice conversations, my daughter continues to tell me about her flourishing vegetable garden (seen here). She called me yesterday to give me an update! I had to see for myself! She AND her crops are thriving. That makes me think about our God – the Great Multiplier. Multiply means to…
Want to be Thankful with Me Today?
We are still under the “boil water”notice that was issued for all Austin Water customers Saturday night due to an “internal treatment process issue that resulted in high turbidity within the Ullrich Water Treatment plant.” In addition, emergency water restrictions were issued, meaning residents are asked to conserve water.

Maybe it’s the health conscious living that we have these days, but I loved the whole notion of paying a nominal price for any and everything that…
March On
I know DSW Shoes was making a play on words with their email advertisement yesterday. After all, we are in the month of MARCH and it’s time to MARCH ON. Here are lines from their ad: *****OK, IT’S TIME: TIME TO FINALLY REALIZE “I WILL” WALKS ALL OVER “I CAN’T.” *****IT’S TIME: TO CONFRONT EACH…
Gratitude for Simple Pleasures
When itemizing those things we are grateful for, we’ll list a lot of things that money affords — like our home, car, clothes, food, electronics, appliances and all those THINGS that add to our comfort. But now, in retrospect, I realize those precious treasures that money can’t buy. The Simple Pleasures. Thanksgiving usually brings families…
