I am a grammar nerd.  It comes easily to me, figuring out how to word things, spelling properly, using words concisely, and knowing which words to use in a sentence (whose or who's, anyone?).  I try not to also become the grammar police, but sometimes things just need correcting, know what I mean? Like, should... Continue Reading →

In case you didn't know, Christmas was yesterday. (I actually originally wrote this the day after Christmas 2019, so don't be confused.)  It's the day Christians celebrate the birth of our Savior, the greatest gift the world has ever known, Jesus Christ.

I mean, like, when you were a child, you cleaned your room to earn allowance. Or you raked the neighbor’s yard for some pocket money. Or, you... Continue Reading →

Have you ever had a problem/project that you just couldn't figure out, and even though you have a friend who is pretty much an expert, you say "no thanks" when they offer to show you how or help you? Why do we do that?  Maybe I should rephrase- Why do *I* do that?  Why do... Continue Reading →

Have you ever noticed yourself reacting a certain way to certain stimuli? Like something habitual?  For example:-If a person cuts you off on the road, you then tailgate them to show your displeasure.-If someone confronts you about an issue, or challenges your thoughts, you get defensive instead of taking stock and really listening.-If someone says...

Have you ever just thrown your hands up in the air and said “For the love of Pete, I KNEW I was going to end up a son of Kohath!!!”? No? Just me?  Alrighty then… The sons of Kohath were called to bear the things of the tabernacle on their shoulders. When the high priest... Continue Reading →

Have you ever let part of your house/property get messy and disorganized, and need to take time to sort through things and straighten it up? Maybe it’s your desk. Or your car. Or your basement.
