In the Bleak Midwinter…Car Stuff

Ok. Odd title. However, if you’ve been following me for a while, you know that I suffer from “BSOS” or “Bright Shiney Object Syndrome” aka ADHD. So…it came to my attention the other day and I was reminded of it today, that some people don’t know what to do in a Midwestern winter. That gotContinue reading “In the Bleak Midwinter…Car Stuff”

Finally Done???

I start with the view from my couch/bed. Sad, and yet so happy to have gotten the storage unit cleared out!! Woohoo 🎉!!! Celebration! Well, yes, except that I’m too pooped to party. Yeah.. it’s been a looooooong day. I drove over 100 miles in a moving truck and carted boxes, bags, furniture, you nameContinue reading “Finally Done???”

No Extra Cloak or Pair of Sandals

Do you remember this advice from Jesus in the Gospel?  He tells his disciples to go out and spread the good news, but not to bring any extra provisions.  Why?  Because God himself will provide for them.  Wow!  That’s a pretty amazing concept! So, as most of you know, we have been on a longContinue reading “No Extra Cloak or Pair of Sandals”

Never Just a Cake Mix

Today I decided to use up some of last Summer’s homemade peach jam. But what to do with it? I have, on occasion, used baking mixes. Mostly they are a base for something tasty. That was the case today. I don’t exactly have my own kitchen right now, so I have to borrow one toContinue reading “Never Just a Cake Mix”

Sharing Saturday: Peace & Calming Essential Oil

Doesn’t everyone need a little more peace and calming in their day? I know I do! What with our house having showings (to hopefully sell quickly – prayers!) and the school year ending (so tests!) and everything else that I have on my plate right now I know I need to put a little peaceContinue reading “Sharing Saturday: Peace & Calming Essential Oil”

It reminded me of that very first rainbow and the promise that went along with it. God has not abandoned us, even though the mortgage companyContinue reading “A Rainbow Promise & Chocolate Sauce”
