Warrior Wednesday

A Warrior is an Optimist

One of the greatest "Warrior Women" I know is my friend Jo. She moved away and man, I miss her. I miss our chats and our mutual rants. I miss her wild hair ideas and the "projects" she gets me into. I miss her support of my activities and I miss supporting her in her… Continue reading A Warrior is an Optimist

It’s Time to Bring Back and Rethink Home Economic Classes

Sorry to burden you all again, but it's time to get out the soap box about education again. I've done a fair bit of stomping for the arts in past posts. Be sure to go back and check them out here and here and here. I am a definite fan of music and theatre in the… Continue reading It’s Time to Bring Back and Rethink Home Economic Classes

#bethelight – Day 178

Some days I get so caught up in the hustle and bustle of the day that I often need little reminders to think outside of myself and think of others.

Scripture Sunday

Working on Being a Saint

Most people would say I'm "Mormon."  Although, being given the title of "Mormon" isn't an insult, it does not truly represent my faith and conviction.   Because my church believes in the Book of Mormon, another testament of Jesus Christ that is a collections of writings and testimonies of ancient prophets comparable to the Bible and… Continue reading Working on Being a Saint

#bethelight – Day 174 and 175

Wow.... I was so busy yesterday.  I went to the chiropractor, chatted with good friends, went to the Farmer's Market and bought a few plants to put in my garden and a couple veggies.  The farmers at the Farmer''s Market were so cool.  When I bought some leeks and lettuce I told the farmer to… Continue reading #bethelight – Day 174 and 175

#bethelight – Day 173

Today I bought some plant from the FFA kind.  I think its great to support these kids in learning some useful skills!  However, I am the real winner here.  My hanging flower baskets are beautiful!

Great things are happening

It has been a great week!  The sun came out this week.  We got the hammock out.  We played ball in the yard.  We tried to chill a bit with family. Work has been going well.  I am excited to see how things go with our World Theatre class.  We have covered the difference between… Continue reading Great things are happening
