Preparing for the unknown can be complicated. Since it is unknown, it can be difficult to determine how much or what exactly to prepare. In town, we have a high profile court case coming to our small city. To say it is the largest thing we will most likely see in town in our lifetime […]

Daughters of the American Revolution
For the past few years I’ve been a member of the Daughters of the American Revolution. It is a lovely group of ladies whose focus is God, Home and Country. We begin every meeting pledging allegiance to the flag and singing our national anthem. Our group is patriotic and God-fearing, two things that are very […]
Dare to Dream
There is a whole world of possibility before you, if you dare to dream! You may wonder, what gives some the ability to live lives full of opportunities that others only dream about? I’ve come to believe it is largely because only a select few have the courage and boldness to pursue those dreams! Dreaming […]
A Change for the Better
I’ve heard more than once that people don’t change. And I get it. We can all be hardheaded and resistant to change. But the other day I randomly read a quote that I thought was interesting. It went something along the lines of, “Remember, if you don’t like how things are now, you can always […]
Seasons Change
Seasons change four times a year. Some seasons are mild while others are extreme. Personally, I’m one for the in-between seasons – fall and spring – where it’s not too hot and not too cold. I’m not much of one for extremes. And I think I could say the same of life, I’m not too […]

And in those busy seasons it seems a bit of a trick to catch anything up without something else slipping behind. And I get that that’s my choice. It is directly connected to what […]
Brighter Days Ahead
There are always brighter days ahead. Whether you are in a trying time or on top of the world, when we give God our best, there is always something to anticipate! A Thrill of Hope I love that phrase, “a thrill of hope, a weary world rejoices”. The world is so crazy right now. Terrible […]

It is how you relate to those around you – be they your friends, family, or a blossoming romantic interest. Each relationship you have should inspire […]
Growing Up Today
Growing up today is interesting. Being in my mid-30s now, I personally think of myself as being grown, but there’s still so much to learn. I guess technically I get the impression that you never quit growing up – ideally, anyway. There is always more to learn, corrections to make and projects to do. Looking […]
Plans for 2023
Do you have plans for 2023? It will be here soon so it’s best to start thinking about it before it arrives! Typically by now I’ve bought a planner and am looking at my goals. Though I’ve had them in the back of my mind, I confess I’ve not given them the consideration I like […]
