What is it Like to be You?
We’ve all played “ice breaker” games with a group of people who we may know very little about. It’s a great way to get to know each other in a very open environment. But, instead of the usual questions: “What do you do for fun? What was your most embarrassing moment? What was your favorite…
Remembering While Living in the Land of the Living
It is the 16th of November, but, this day, it is the year 2010. A gentle breeze comes in our bedroom window. The melodious sounds of Oklahoma’s many bird varieties capture our attention. They are singing with Louis Armstrong “And I think to myself, ‘what a wonderful world’”. In the near distance, we see the…
Changing our Woe-is-Me Talk to Faith Talk
Our dear friend, Stephanie Boosahda, songwriter and award-singing Christian artist, wrote and sang this song. “Let your faith do the walking; let the Spirit do the talking. Let the love of Jesus shine in all you do. Let your faith do the walking and the Spirit do the talking. Let His Word come alive and…
Oh, Yes. We Know What to Do!
What a roller coaster ride we’ve been on this year. Future generations will hear of it and be ever so glad they didn’t have to experience this one. 2020 will make the history books that generations to come will read about. We’re approaching this year’s end and we’re still looking for answers to the pandemic…
Championing My Sisters
That title might sound like I’m championing a movement for declaring our rights as women. Well, yes, I am, in a sense. What I’m actually declaring is the power that God placed within us to be world changers and history makers. I am so blessed to be a leader for a beautiful group of women…

Curb Appeal Matters
In the community I live in, all of the yards are pristine — nicely edged, cut, bushes trimmed, no garage doors open. Every home has curb appeal. It’s a requirement here in this 55+ community. I’ve been a R/E Estate Broker for 18 years and I know curb appeal and first impressions matter. A run-down…
It’s Not Broken — Just Wrong Programming
Yesterday afternoon, I went to the fitness center in my community to run on the treadmill. As I ran, I watched the Dallas Cowboys game and they got off to a great start but, apparently they were “out of order” because they lost to Atlanta 7 to 27. On the same note, occasionally, you’ll see…
From This Day Forward
We’re in Atlanta at last — celebrating the love and marriage of my firstborn grandson, Braden Wuerch and his darling fiancee, Ruth Hays. Last night was the rehearsal and rehearsal dinner — hosted by Ryan Wuerch and Shawntel Wuerch. It was quite the spectacular affair that included not only the wedding party, but also out…
