Boy, it’s only three days to Christmas, and I really haven’t caught the Chrissie spirit yet.
Normally I will have some great inspiration and a theme to follow. But not this year!! Life has been so hectic with moving my sister-in-law into our place.
(For those who don’t know, this year we’ve helped her sell her [...]

My three darlings!! That’s my boy, JJ, with his NEW birds!
Would you believe I used to carrying him around on my hip and take him down in the bush to look at and listen to the birds? When he was about three, he [...]
Don’t worry, BEE happy now!
I just received this in an email.
Thought it was so good, that I wanted to share it with you all.
Dear Lord
Every single evening
As I’m lying here in bed,
This tiny little Prayer
Keeps running through my head:
God bless all my family
Wherever they may be,
Keep them warm and safe from harm
For they’re so close to me.
And God, there [...]
Today, is my second day into getting my house in order.
Flickr and other things on the net slowed me down a bit with getting started. So it was nearly lunch time before I even looked at doing anything in the house.
The pile of dirty dishes in the sink made me feel guilty. Well, [...]

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 [...]
