“There are those that read the Bible and then there are those that believe it.” When I was young, my father would sit at our dining room table with stacks of Bibles and Bible Commentaries. From the NIV to ASB, we had most versions. The table looked like it was meant at a library, not […]
“If someone could only see my actions and not hear my words, what would they say are my priorities?” – James Clear (author, Atomic Habits) I came across this question recently and it really hit me hard. I tend to think of myself in a favorable light. I would like to think I’m a good […]
After the birth of each of my children, I was physically exhausted and sleep-deprived. I had just enough energy for feedings, diaper changes, and washing bottles. I still recall how my sister would use every free opportunity she had to spend time with my babies during those instances. From infancy through toddlerhood, my sister could […]
My refrigerator has been having issues. The temperature is inconsistent and the water dispenser is glitchy. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. My husband has changed out the filter, called a repairman and Googled how to fix it- but no luck (first world problems, I know). So…until we get the issue resolved (or get a new […]
Here’s some honest truth from this side of the screen. I have been in a valley for a while. It’s not the scary kind, but it’s still a low point. Many of our posts last year told the story of how several of us lost our Pastor due to Covid. Our family fasted and prayed […]
As we begin a new year, I’ve been hearing more and more people approaching 2022 with cautious apprehension…myself included. If we are being honest, it feels like the last two years left us deflated. 2020 was supposed to be the fresh start of a new decade. 20/20 vision. Boundless possibilities. But just a few months […]
When I began driving, I always had a printout of directions from MapQuest handy. (Anyone else out there mature enough to remember the days before GPS?) Since then, it has become a habit to spend several minutes carefully reviewing the directions to my destination. I just always want to know the steps involved to arrive […]
I have the best team! I sincerely appreciate what every one of my coworkers brings to the table. Our most recent hire came to us with no previous pharmacy experience, BUT he had energy and a desire to learn. So we brought him on! Every day, he shows up, on time and ready to work. […]
A few weeks ago, I joined some friends for a painting event led by an instructor. Maybe I should preface this by sharing how I ventured out to a similar event a few years ago … except everyone painted whatever they wanted … without any steps or instructions. And I floundered … miserably. You see, […]
Fun fact about me: I LOVE Christmas! Seriously, I think Buddy the Elf and I have some major competition when it comes to Christmas cheer. Every year, a month prior to Christmas, a complete spreadsheet comes together. There are lists for Christmas cards, gifts, movies, parties, and of course, planning our annual Christmas breakfast. This […]
The Devil’s Slide
Last year, my family and I had the opportunity to go on an RV trip. It was quite an experience. We were fortunate to go with another family who were well versed in the art
