Thanksgiving Starts With “Thank You”!
A BIG jumbo sized “THANK YOU”, Lord, for our Dallas Cowboys’ win over Washinton yesterday. What a great time we had cheering for our team! I know that sounds trivial, especially in the light of many who are in a world of hurt today, But, why shouldn’t we be THANKFUL in ALL things? Carl and…
Thankful and Grateful
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours! I am so thankful for YOU and, above all, so thankful for God’s love and blessings to us all. Carl and I had an early Thanksgiving with his family a couple of weeks ago. And tomorrow my family will be converging in East Texas. Thanksgiving! THIS IS THE DAY…
Fair Weather is for Sissies!
Years ago, as a private pilot, I only piloted the airplane if the skies were clear and winds were light. They called me a “fair weather” pilot. I know – sissy-girl attitude, but I preferred easy-going to my destination with a trouble-free landing. That’s why I was partial to being the co-pilot for my “any…
These are the Moments
It isn’t the money in my wallet or the car I drive or home I live in. It isn’t the TV show that makes me laugh or the movie I see that inspires me. Nothing can compare with the priceless gratitude moments that represent my favorite things. As I was writing this blog after just…
Got Skin in the Game?
As a die-hard fan of the Dallas Cowboys, I only have memories invested in them. On the other hand, I read this of Jerry Jones, the owner of the Cowboys. He can surely say “I have “skin in the game”! More than three decades ago, Jerry Jones bought the Dallas Cowboys and Texas Stadium for…
Fair Weather is for Sissies!
Years ago, as a private pilot, I only flew if the skies were clear and winds were light. I was a “fair weather” pilot. I preferred easy-going to my destination with a trouble-free landing. I preferred being the co-pilot for my “any weather” husband who was confident and cautious, in any weather. He loved the…
Our Way Maker and Doomsday Defense
Global warming. Pandemic. World hunger. Inflation. Immorality. Murder of innocent lives. I hear those daily reports and I retreat to my safe and happy place of peace on earth, good will to men. I purposely avoid conflict, controversary and complainers. That means I rarely watch the news and the incessant doomsday reports. Ah, that just…
It’s Super Bowl Sunday! We Win – No Matter What!
Though the Super Bowl won’t have the ginormous crowds and the vendors won’t sell near as many snack items and the ticket sales are meager compared to years before, today the two best professional football teams will meet up for the big FINALE. It just so happens that it’s two teams, the Kansas City Chiefs…
My Eagle Wings Came Just in Time
The draw of attraction came by way of an air compressor! I mentioned in a blog a few days ago that I am on a downsizing mission! Whew! How can we accumulate so much stuff? But I have come to terms with it by paying this stuff forward to someone else. Giving away or selling…
Dear God, Is it OK for Us to Pray for our Team to Win?
This is Super Bowl Sunday and if you’re not a Rams or Patriots fan, you may not be inclined to feel “passionate” about today’s game. You probably don’t care one way or the other who wins. But if you are one of those team’s fans, you may be as passionate about your team, as I…
