A Dose of Laughter Medicine
I am not having to order laughter medicine any longer because I married a man who IS my laughter medicine every day. Thanks, God! I needed that! We all need an unlimited supply of laughter medicine. In fact, you might need a hearty dose right now! We all need it — especially because the political…
Filling in the Blanks
In order to make plans for out-of-town trips this year, we spent quality time placing our activities, appointments, and events on our calendars – Carl, in his Day Timer, and me in my iPhone. We are well underway with filling in the blanks on our 2024 calendars. We must accomplish this task because we have…
Amazing Goldies! This is for YOU!
The 50th anniversary is famously known as the golden wedding anniversary, with gold being both the milestone’s associated color and the gift material. So, it’s safe to say that even when we are turning “50” and beyond, we are “golden”! Fifty is just a number and I am saying: “It’s time to shake off restricting…
I had an Epiphany at the Festival
Yesterday, I blogged about Epiphany AND we celebrated it in Fort Worth. It was the 12th and final day of Christmas, as well as the day that the Magi offered their gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh to the Christ Child in the Holy Family’s home. I certainly had an “epiphany” (that’s an ah-ha moment…
On the 12th Day of Christmas….Epiphany
“On the 12th day of Christmas my true love gave to me…….” Let’s talk about those 12 days of Christmas. The true Christmas season starts on Christmas Day, the 25th. And it marks the official start of the 12 days of Christmas, and that relentlessly stick-in-your-head Christmas carol. But there’s so much more than the…

Expecting 2024 to be the Best Year Ever
I love that round number, 2024. My grandson, Payton, was born in 2000. That means we’ve been able to keep up with his age because it’s the same two digits of the year. He’ll be 24 in 2024. I’m counting on two additions to our family in 2024. Payton, the upcoming 24-year-old grandson and his…
Are We There Yet?
Yes we are! Day 1 of 2024 is signed, sealed, and delivered to us. On Sunday at church, New Year’s Eve, we sang an old song that made my eyes water. See if it causes yours to water, too: Because He lives, I can face tomorrowBecause He lives, all fear is goneBecause I know, He…
Happy New Year! Can I Have This Dance?
Yay! The last day of 2023 was numbered 12-31-23. Aw! 123-123! That sounds like a waltz to me — dancing right on into 2024! And, if we choose God as our dance partner on this 1st day of January through to December 31st, 2024, we’ll be conquering throughout this new year! An entire year of…
Looking and Finding Him Right Here
Have you ever looked for something that was right in front of you all the time? I could be wearing my glasses, and be looking for my glasses. I could be looking for my keys and they could be right on the counter in front of me. We could be looking for the rain to…
