It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year — Not Time for Down and Out Songs or Words
It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year to Sing Joy-Filled Songs I apologize in advance of this post because it’s me being REAL again — expressing what I’ve learned the most from the loss of my best friend and husband during this time of the year, and how much I want to help others…
The Show Must Go On — Here, and Up There
Today, I’m back in Tulsa where so many memories always await me. Of course, I’m with Mom (aka Mom-in-Law) and Karen, which brings a flood of memories when we’re together, but today, November 16th is exceptionally special to each of us. Mom’s boy, Karen’s big bro, and my Sweetheart, gets my FB marquee placement today.…
Spread the Good News!
Everyday, we make choices — to listen to negativity — especially in the news and then pass that bad news along. We also have the option to do what Jesus said, “Go into all the world and spread the GOOD NEWS!” I remember my early years as a Christian how difficult it was for me…
A Viking Ship — What a Way to Go!
I sat with my youngest grandson yesterday, reading another book about Vikings. I must say I’ve learned more about Vikings in the last couple of months than I had ever known.

Welcome Home!
Today, November 16th, is the 4th year anniversary of this beautiful man’s promotion to heaven. I say it that way because he fervently believed this life on earth, is just our internship for what we were created to do, and be, in heaven. I know he’s on assignment there, as we are all on assignment…

And especially for two of the most amazing Dads ever — my two precious sons: Ryan…
WE WIN!!!
I’m so thankful to be on the winning team! Life, with its ups and downs, is still just temporary — this place is NOT home. We’re simply on a journey to get home, and along the way, we have to fight some battles and conquer some wars…….and I’m so grateful to know — come what…
In the Light of Eternity
One of my favorite sayings is “In the light of eternity….it just won’t matter”! And, I usually say it when discussions go controversial, or when I’m making a trivial decision. Bottom line, like the “God quote” here, this life is just so short, why should we sweat the small stuff? We’re going to spend much…
Acknowledging Him = Straight Paths
“Before you arise from your bed in the morning, I have already arranged the events of your day. Each day provides many opportunities for you to learn My ways and grow closer to Me.” — God Ever look back on your day, and because of so many distractions or needless worry, you realize that you…
