I Choose YOU!
Remember the schoolyard days when team captains picked their players one by one. I wasn’t exactly athletic, and I sure didn’t bloom like the other roses on the bush. So, you guessed it — I was usually chosen last. Oh, the sting of that self-pity! I’m so thankful I outgrew my lack of self esteem.…
The Big Picture
Ah! The big picture. Long term thinking. Those are reminders that life insurance agents share with their potential clients. As a matter of fact, my husband works with those who are purchasing life insurance to protect his/her family in the event of an early death. The insured must qualify primarily based on their health status.…
It’s a Test Worth Taking
During my last Wednesday night’s Bible Study, one of our gals shared a sweet love story. She told our group that she and her husband were in bed, and he commenced to pick up his Bible and read this to her: “Leah is patient. Leah is kind. Leah does not envy or boast. Leah is…
The First Heart Transplant
My niece is an acute heart care clinical nurse specialist at the Oklahoma Heart Institute, working directly with Dr. Kamran Muhammad. In November 2022, OHI celebrated its 1,000th TAVR procedure.

It’s Good to be Back Home
John Denver sang “Hey, it’s good to be back home again!” And Dorothy in the Wizard of Oz, said, “There’s no place like home!” And, I’m singing and saying that today! Whether it’s a day, a week, or a month away from it — there’s just no place like home. Whew! I’m typing this blog…
Spoiler Alert – He Lives!
There are many heroes that have blazed many trails for us – our own family members, our veterans, those who created a life-changing invention that gave us incredible time-saving opportunities. Many of those are still alive and many have passed on. But, after Sunday’s celebration of Christ’s resurrection…..the greatest HERO Who ever lived…didn’t just pass…

Happy Birthday, Jesus! Joy to the world the Lord is come! Let earth receive her King! Many joys and blessings to my dear, encouraging, and supportive, friends and family! Up and at ‘em is the full-of-life-and-joy kiddos this morning. Maybe the rest of us are moving at a slower pace, seeking just a few…
This is my Temporary Home
I’m HOME in Austin. Officially. My family brought over yummy Mexican food to celebrate. They welcomed me with so much love. First night’s sleep was solid — once I got to sleep.
