Our Fall & Winter Wardrobe Reveal
I was proud to say that I had two walk-in closets at my place. Yesiree! This gal needs two closets – one for my Spring/Summer wardrobe and one for my Fall/Winter clothes. Oh, but enters a godly and dear man into my world and I lose one of those closets. Now, the off-season clothes live…
Are We Acting Up Too?
Last week, I recorded Queen Elizabeth’s big celebration that commemorated her 70 years of professional life as the Queen of England. Then I could fast forward through some gnarly antics of some of the entertainers. But the best antics came from her great grandson, Prince Louis! Oh, what a doll boy who was fit to…
Peace is my Governor
Yesterday, I spoke about the “default settings” in electronics. We also have default settings and the ideal ones are having gratitude and the Fruit of the Spirit. A couple of days ago, I walked into a room and a situation that caused me to do an about-face. I was about to react negatively, but instead…
She Laughs. He Laughs. They Laugh.
There is a woman in the Bible who is described as “being clothed with strength and dignity”, and here’s the part that really gets to me – “she laughs without fear of the future.” (Proverbs 31:25). I want to be that woman. I think we all long to be described like her, but I’m not…

A Journal of Joy & Laughter
I was in Tulsa for the last couple of days to check in on Mom and my other besties. So my “sugar and spice and everything nice” awaited me. When I arrived at Mom’s, Karen (my sis-in-law) and her home health nurse were with her and Mom was cringing as the nurse tended to some…
He’s Got a Big Bark, But He’s Very Friendly
Yesterday was absolutely gorgeous here in Austin, so much so, I just had to get out for a nice, leisurely walk. All of a sudden, out of nowhere was MIGHTY MIKE, ready to take off my leg or so I thought! His owner held him back and assured me that “He’s got a big bark,…
Time to Get Out the Weights!
Just Checking Out My Wardrobe! Yesterday, I was with a dear friend who was simply worn out from life and all that it entails. You know….family health issues, responsibilities of being a homemaker and caregiver, having to make some very serious decisions that could mean a positive or negative outcome, as well as those questions…
She Laughs
“She is clothed in strength and dignity, and she LAUGHS without fear of the future.” Proverbs 31:25. I sure want to be this woman. This scripture speaks of a woman who embodies the balance of strength — she is strong, holding it all together, while being able to laugh in the face of fear. She’s…
