Thought Tuesday, Warrior Wednesday

A Warrior’s Personal Power

Have you ever noticed that some people seem to never be down, never get discouraged, and always seem to be in charge of their life?  I wonder why these people have such a positive, uplifting vibe and others don't.  I recognize that we all positive and negative thoughts and moods.  I am learning that there… Continue reading A Warrior’s Personal Power

#bethelight – Day 151

Check in with someone. Recently an acquaintance texted to see how I was doing. She said she hadn’t seen a lot of me in a while and wanted to say “hi.” Although it was simply my crazy busy life style that kept me from being around much, her outreach was touching.  So I reached out… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 151

#bethelight – Day 150

Today I made a list of things people have given me... no strings attached.  You should try it.  I am so grateful for the people who are willing to give to make my life better with no expectations of anything in return.  So... I then decided to make a list of 10 things I I… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 150

#bethelight – Day 149

Oops... I didn't post yesterday.  I do have a good reason.  I worked all day... mostly teaching.  At the end of the day my husband was using my computer so I decided to soak in the hot tub.  Then my daughter called.  She needed her mom.  So I got out of the hot tub ,… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 149

Eating on the Road is Not Easy

Last week we were on the road.  Let me tell you.  It is hard to eat well while on the road!  One day I only had a strawberry lemonade because my options were not good, not that a strawberry lemonade is a good choice, but it was better than the rest of the choices that… Continue reading Eating on the Road is Not Easy

Scripture Sunday

Words of Wisdom

I think Conference weekend is my favorite weekend.  Too bad there are only two in a year.  I felt so peaceful and so energized in one.  Here are some of the Memes I collected from this Conference.  I stick them in an electronic picture frame and put it on random.  They scroll through and I… Continue reading Words of Wisdom

Celebrating the Great Life Giver

Many years ago I learned of the heroic efforts of Oscar Schindler, a compassionate man who attempted to rescue a doomed race of people.  Schindler made large amounts of money in his factory in Krakow Poland providing enamel-ware for the Germans.  He used that money to buy the lives of hundreds of defenseless Jews.  To… Continue reading Celebrating the Great Life Giver

#bethelight – Day 148

Today is Easter... a day celebrating the greatest act of kindness EVER. Today is also April Fool's day. I have no idea what the history of playing tricks on people is all about.  It seems rather mean spirited.  Today I'd like to follow the other tradition, the greatest kindness ever.  Today I'd like to see… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 148

Satisfaction Saturday

Satisfied with my New Rubber Broom

I have two dogs... and everyday they shed enough hair to make a new dog.  There is so much hair that my vacuum can't get it all!  Trying to use a broom only makes things worse.  The hair floats around and gets everywhere. Over our little vacation we saw a rubber broom in a store… Continue reading Satisfied with my New Rubber Broom

Family Friday

Spring Break!

    It isn't often that I go on a road trip.  I'm not much for travel.  I like my own bed far too much, I guess.  However, this Spring Break we decided to hit the road with our one child left at home and to visit family. The drive was very uneventful... this was… Continue reading Spring Break!
