Power-Washer Services Offered Here
I think I get my frugal and prudent spending habits and mindset from parents who were products of the Great Depression when every penny counted. My Mom would sing out “Shut off the lights! Turn up the air conditioner!” And, in the winter, “Turn down the heat and put on a sweater!” Here I am,…
WORDLE – Words Matter
A couple of weeks ago, my granddaughter, Alexia, introduced me to the online game, WORDLE. I tried it and I was hooked. I may have been known to snap a photo of my conquests and send it to her (like yesterday). Three tries and I had the right word. A simple online game became a…
From Refrigerator Grief to Refrigerator Gratitude
Here’s a little 1960’s nostalgia. Remember the musical “Bye Bye Birdie” and Dick Van Dyke and Janet Leigh singing “Put on a Happy face”? Most of my comrades from that era, and even you youngsters, might enjoy watching it. In fact, you just might get a happy face from it! Gray skies are gonna’ clear…
Set Up for a Divine Set UpI
I SET UP the appointment for my car’s two-hour scheduled maintenance (oil change, tire rotation, etc.). A couple of days later, Wednesday, I am handing over my keys and car to the service technician at my car dealership’s service area. I make my way to the waiting area. I grab a latte and a muffin…
Clean Out and Clean Up Time
Accidentally, I threw a towel into my wash with my black slacks. Oops! Hello Lint! You know. Those little fibers from that towel were all over those pants. I proceeded to pull out my trusty, sticky lint remover roller to remove all those tiny balls of lint. Because I was so passionate about what is…
He Ain’t Heavy. He’s My Brother.
I read these prophetic words from a minister’s e-mail yesterday: “The road has been rough with obstacles and detours, ups and downs, but soon things will become smoother and easier to navigate. Stay the course and trust Me (God) to bring you through to victory. You are My chosen generation.” And those words sparked other…
March ON
January – Check, February – Check, and already to March. We may look at our 2022 resolutions, dream boards and goals list and wonder “Have I accomplished anything on my lists in this new year?” The truth is life happens. And, with it, our grandiose plans may go awry. But, no worries, we can still…
Wrapping Up the Love Month with Love Letters
February’s last day! Tomorrow March will be “marching on”!Here in Austin, we had several days of below freezing weather last week. It was so cold, my grandson’s baseball tournament in Fredricksburg, TX for the weekend was canceled. I didn’t mind. It was way too cold for comfort! My family in Winnipeg Canada are rolling their…
Love God and Do Whatever You Please
This Love Month is coming to a close tomorrow. So, I need to squeeze in one more blog that accentuates God’s love for us and our love for Him. The title of this blog was a quote by St. Augustine. I thought “Did I hear that right? Do whatever I want?” How can that be?…
And They’ll Know We are Christians by our Love
You may have noticed that I have been keen on the love theme in my blogs this month. After all, it is the love month! Nevertheless, I must admit my love battery needs a charge. My attention to details has been diverted and I’ve neglected to pay attention to matters that need serious attention and…
