Let me tell you about my God and how He works ALL things out. This past weekend, we had lots of plans. The beginning of those were to spend Saturday morning enjoying the grandkids at the ball field. Madden had a football game, Braylea and Lillianna both had games to cheer. It was a beautiful… Continue reading God Has a Purpose
Over the years I have purchased and used many household cleaners. Some I like very much, some not so much. The things I look for in a good cleaner are pretty simple. It must do the job well, without much difficulty, it must smell good, and it can’t be expensive. As I said, there… Continue reading Cleaning the Simple Way
Once again, September is just around the corner. As my favorite season is about to begin, there’s lots to do around the house.

Awana is one of the greatest and most enjoyable programs that I have the opportunity to participate in at our church. Serving is important to me and to be able to serve food to all our Awana kids and the workers is an amazing blessing. As we begin our new year, I am looking at… Continue reading Be a Good Tater

Painting and drawing have always been very relaxing for me and I’m not too bad at either. The frustration comes with not being able to put my vision on… Continue reading Calm and Crafty
School Is Starting Back Once again, it’s time for the kiddos to go back to school. What better time to clean out those bedrooms than now. You won’t have to listen to their whining and crying about what you choose to dispose of and they’ll probably never miss it anyway. Depending on the number of… Continue reading Time for School Clean-out!
What makes you happy? I mean, REALLY happy. Spending time with family, listening to your favorite music, reading a good book? The joy of the Lord is your strength. Nehemiah 8:10 All of these things make me happy. And there are so many others. Joy comes in many different forms and I suppose it’s… Continue reading Find Your JOY
An old slogan for a popular shoe company, “Just Do It” seems to fit well in my current circumstance. Since I’ve quit work and have no real schedule, I find myself not managing my time well. I tell myself that I can do it tomorrow, knowing fully well that it probably won’t happen tomrrow either. … Continue reading Just Do It
My baby turns 30! I had the opportunity this past weekend to enjoy some away time with my two beautiful daughters. My oldest, Kala, will be turning 30 soon, so we thought a getaway for girl time would be perfect. It was nothing spectacular, but we loved it. We rented a room in Murfreesboro, which… Continue reading Celebrating 30
