As most of you know, Facebook reminds us daily of memories. They pop up what happened to us on this day X years ago and sometimes they come at the best possible time, sometimes the worst. Sometimes, as I get more tinsel in my hair, I look at them and think, “Oh shoot… where was

I told her to get out!
This little two minute moment from the heart is, well, imperfect in every way including my day old makeup, my look of exhaustion (and the fact it’s vertical and not horizontal is driving me crazy)! But you know, this place is so not about being perfect. Thank goodness for that! We all know life isn’t
Yay, Christmas Cards!
Below is a video about an idea I have fallen in love with, just one of those light bulb moments (and mine is often dim!). I thought some of you might love it too especially all my prayer warrior people. The photo to the left is a sneak peek. If you get a moment to
Curve balls….
Aren’t we all trying to find the best versions of ourselves? Well, maybe not everybody, like the disgruntled lady at church Sunday, but hey, even she might be trying when she gets home! I just wish we could reach a point where all this “oh, I’m good” bologna could stop and on the tough days,
She is me. She was me.
This is a journal entry from two years ago today…. the prompt for today’s post. I hope you’ll take a moment to read it and the video will speak for itself. Thanks for being here, love you all!!
Take 30 seconds…

Christmas with Mama…

Anyone who knows me knows I’m always searching, for what I’m never sure, but it continues daily.

Girl in the mirror…
You know, I started this blog post with all this blah, blah, bah, humbug about yuchy stuff I realized can wait for another day! The hard stuff is important but today is not that day. I could not ask for a better way to end a year and start a new one especially on this
The Journey.
Today, I share simply this… I love Mary Oliver and her writings and this one, this one right here, has gotten me through some dark days. In my searching for something today, I stumbled upon it, and I don’t believe anything is by chance. Maybe I’m wrong…. I hope it touches someone else today.
He’s still there…
I don’t know about you but over the last few decades, I’ve ridden some highs and lows in my relationship with God. I picture a giant roller coaster full of loops and tunnels and really sharp curves, extremely high hills and drops, the kinds that make you gasp, panic, burst into laughter (or tears!), that
