Walking Together in Wisdom
I'm getting old. There, I said it out loud. I am almost 50 (two years to go!) and I recently had to get an upgrade in my glasses prescription. I call it an upgrade because that sounds better than saying my vision is getting worse. I knew it was time because when I looked through... Continue Reading →
Sometimes you just have to wonder... this really came up in a grocery store app when I searched for wet cat food. I don't know if this is someone's idea of a joke, if they really hate shepherd's pie and this was a slam against it, or they are actually recommending you make it with... Continue Reading →
The weather has warmed up! Feel free to read that sentence with whatever emotion it stirs in you. For some (like my oldest daughter) it is a relief and blessing to have warmer temperatures. For me, the warmer temperatures are great, but the fact that it is also raining is problematic. The combo of warmth... Continue Reading →
We're in the days now where snow keeps dumping from the sky, amiright? It seems we caught a break today and perhaps for the next few days, but bear with me, wouldya? If you're anything like me, you're tempted, when it's that light, fluffy, sparkly kind of snow that looks like it belongs in a... Continue Reading →

The new year is a great time to take a step back and evaluate how things are going. There are a lot of areas of our lives where we can do this, but none is more important than our spiritual lives. It’s good to know what we did well, so we can keep going. And... Continue Reading →
The end of one year means the beginning of another. (Profound, I know.) For some, the new year is met with a feeling of excitement, looking forward to all the future holds and the potential that awaits. For others, the new year is faced with trepidation, full of uncertainty, and not so much a feeling... Continue Reading →
Have you ever arrived to the church parking lot and seen just a few of the cars filling the spaces have snow tucked in crevices and corners, hubcaps and bumpers, side mirrors and trunks; and wonder where they came from since your car has hardly any? One early morning last week when I woke up,... Continue Reading →
Does your family have a group text where you share all manner of plans, discussions, debates, and funny stuff? My youngest daughter got married a few months ago, and we added her husband to the “Family” chat. This of course means that those of us still actually living in the house needed a separate chat...
