Boy, I made a DOOZIE today!! A COSTLY doozie!!
But yet a MOST valuable lesson!
In recent years, since the kids have gotten older and more independent, I’ve launched out into graphic design. We’ve been in the sign industry since we were married, 23 years ago, with Phil doing the majority of the artistic work. [...]

Now, this happened yesterday, and it’s SO funny!! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. One thing I’ve learned though, is that it’s OKAY TO DREAM. And aren’t dreams wonderful?
It all started yesterday afternoon. JJ, my son, and his mate, Mazey (that’s what they call him), were needing [...]
A friend of mine has just started playing a little BLESSING game.
Every evening, before you go to bed, think of three special blessings God has given you that day. I started playing too, and it’s really neat.
But then I got thinking. Often at the end of the day, we look back and see [...]

I often think of that song by Simon and Garfunkel. Sometimes I can really relate to these lines:
And I’m one step ahead of the shoe shine
Two steps away from the county line
Just trying to keep my customers satisfied,
Satisfied.
And boy, sometimes I don’t like it!!
Yeah, today was one of those days where things don’t turn out [...]

Tonight, I was presented with this question:
On reading through Proverbs, over and over it says things like, “The righteous will be blessed,” “Work hard and you will be wealthy.” Basically, “God will bless the wise, and they will be happy and rich.” Or, even more basically, “If you are good, your life will go [...]

Oh my dear Tori,
It would seem I have neglected you. Well, I must admit, I have. But all my writing time has been consumed by heaps of emails and Flickr discussion groups. I’ve been working on a little project, which I can’t say too much about it now.
However, all will be revealed [...]
Gee, it’s good to be back here. This blog has become like a very dear friend to me. In fact, I have given my friend a name, “TORI” (That One Reading It – YOU!!).
I wrote this entry as an email to another friend, then submitted to a Flickr discussion group yesterday.
G’day!!
And it sure [...]

Okay! Okay!! I haven’t been around much!
But I needed to sort out some stuff. I needed to know where I was going with writing these blogs. I was starting to get a bit bogged down with it and feeling it was something I HAD to do. And seeing I was [...]
