Enjoying Billowy Cloud Cover
Our trip to East Texas and Epiphany Ranch didn’t disappoint! We took advantage of the wonderful, somewhat cooler temperatures. We went to see my sweet cousin, Mary Ellen Snow, who moved to Tyler, TX from Frisco, TX. We were neighbors in Frisco, buds in Tulsa and Dallas before that. It looks like the cousins still…
Let’s Take a Walk
I’ve loved seeing the Easter photos of families enjoying their Easter celebrations – their new Easter clothes, meals together, and egg hunts. My youngest two grands (16 and 18) still hunt for the eggs that their mama “rabbit” hid in their back yard. I know Mama Rabbit’s story – she wants to hold onto the…
I’ll Take a Cloud…or Two
I read my “FB Memories” from this day a couple of years ago. Back then I was all caught up in gratitude for the rain, and cooler temperatures and the Fall season that was in the air. This year it seems Summer doesn’t want to give way just yet! I’m in Tulsa right now, and…
You Lead. I’ll Follow.
Though I’ve posted this photo before, I just had to post it again for memories’ sake. That hairdo on me came from the late 60s. It was called the bee-hive — the higher the hair, the closer to God we felt! LOL! Curls-on-steroids! What was I thinking? Those were our Master’s IV Gospel Quartet days…
My User Manual & My Daily Medicine Dose
From TVs to cars, most everything we purchase these days come with user manuals. For most of us, we rarely read the user manual until something breaks down or isn’t working properly. But, then, we don’t even go to the manual first, we google our issue and find the answer there. Today, I’m talking about…
I’m So Hungry
Being “hungry” took on a new meaning for me recently. I have a wonderful devotion book that comes with daily scriptures and a great, practical message to back them up. I also listen to the “Bible in One Year” scriptures from my phone app. I guess I’m an overachiever because I don’t want to miss…
The Resurrection Changes Everything
It’s the day after Easter and the retail stores are offering 50% or more off their leftover plastic eggs, chocolate and stuffed bunnies. Many people are already boxing up their Easter season décor. Isn’t this what we do routinely with most holiday celebrations? When the date has passed, we move on. But, I’d like to…
Bring on the Spotlights — It’s Lent!
Bring on the Spotlights! I think I get my frugal and prudent spending habits and mindset from parents who were products of the Great Depression when every penny counted. My Mom would sing out “Shut off the lights! Turn up the air conditioner!” And, in the winter, “Turn down the heat and put on a…
How About a Life Changing Walk With Jesus?
Life-Changing: Having an effect that is strong enough to change someone’s life; having a powerful effect; compelling, game changer, unconquerable I’ve loved seeing the Easter photos of families enjoying their Easter celebrations – their new Easter clothes, dinners and egg hunts. It was hilarious watching my 16 and 17 year old grands hunting for eggs…
Life is Like Candy Land! It’s a Sweet Spot or a Sticky Swamp!
Everyone that will read my post today will, no doubt, remember playing, at least one time or another, the “sweet” game of Candy Land. It still ranks as one of the most popular children’s games in the U.S. I’ve played it with my kids and grandkids — many times. The goal of the game is…
