Off With The Old

All the Christmas decor is down and nestled in its garage bed to sleep until next time. The furniture is back where it belongs, and I have started my annual clean out of closets, cupboards, and drawers. Every January, a strong renesting instinct comes over me to re-establish my external order. It is accompanied byContinue reading “Off With The Old”

True North

One of my favorite things to do when I visit friends and even family is to take note of the things people decorate their home with or put on display. I have learned it can be the silent conversation folks have about themselves and their interests. You can learn a lot about the person byContinue reading “True North”

I Am The Good Shepherd.

One of my favorite times during my Christmas decorating is incorporating some of my nativities around the house. I have collected them for several years and have many from other countries. But my favorite is the one passed down to me from my mom. While still working, my mother joined a ceramics class to haveContinue reading “I Am The Good Shepherd.”

God uses everything from dogs to diamonds to affirm His truth in my life. As I grow and write, more and more, I am reminded of the experiencesContinue reading “Lions and Cobras, and Dragons Oh My!”

Angels Watching Over Me, My Lord

While the smell of pumpkin is in the air and sunflowers and autumn leaves adorn most of the doors in my neighborhood, I have noticed 2 aisles over in the home stores Christmas is already on the way. My comment is always that I want to shake hands with pilgrims before angels spread their wingsContinue reading “Angels Watching Over Me, My Lord”

Camping With Confidence

For the most part, I am an outdoor girl. From early morning to after sunset, I like to be outdoors. Reading, gardening, swimming, eating, walking if it can be done, I want it to be done outside. My pipe dream is an outdoor kitchen!. However, when it is time to turn in, the hardwood floorsContinue reading “Camping With Confidence”
