I named her Old Faithful because we feel so safe with her...

The weather these last few days has just been beautiful with very cool mornings and nice warm afternoons. Great weather to deliver the wood before the cold comes. We have been deliving wood for the past three years; just for something to do since my husband thinks a "retired person" should still... Sign in to see full entry.

I knew I needed to have more interaction with other people...

but I just didn’t know where to start. So I re-joined the choir at church and then when I saw an old friend from high school at Wal-Mart last week, on the spur of the moment, I suggested we meet for coffee sometime. She seemed to be very excited at the thought of doing that and so this morning, I... Sign in to see full entry.

I am not safe……………………………………….. Is this true? Yes, I say.

Are you absolutely sure this is true? Well, not absolutely sure but all evidence points to that. But are you absolutely sure this thought, that I am not safe, is true? No, I guess not. This is the first two questions, of the four questions, that Byron Katie asks in her book and in all the seminars... Sign in to see full entry.

Take a look at your hands...

Did you do it? Don't just read on. Take a good look at your hands. I'll get back to your hands in a moment. About the time my husband and I were ready to really called it quits; we had gone to bed and the next morning I think we both subconsciously began to draw on our inner strength because what...

"They make me look sexy," I said...

I know.. I am old (er) but I'm not dead and any woman wants to feel sexy or pretty some of the time. I had bought those fake nails AGAIN and had put them in the drawer but never got around to putting them on until this past week. I can afford the other kind in the salon but I hate to take my time...

The Left side of the Brain just had to rear its head...

Our day started out with an early morning phone call from the allergy specialist we were to see yesterday morning at 11:30 am. She was calling to tell me that she had tried twice to get the referral from our primary care doctor, here in our town and she had not received it yet, and that if she... Sign in to see full entry.

Look beyond the pain and see the cross...

this is what I am understanding or learning each time I go through a trial or suffer an uncomfortable moment in my life; as in the Depot days episode last Sat. when I saw the other woman. I have downloaded many wonderful books on my little E-reader and whenever I have a moment, I read. One book I... Sign in to see full entry.

A Lesson in faith...The day started off by reading...

Adnohr’s post and maybe it set the tone of the day because yesterday was the day my mom died 13 years ago and so I could relate to her sadness. Our daughter had gone to a women’s retreat sponsored by her church on Friday evening and Sat. morning and I could see God just pulling things into place... Sign in to see full entry.

Injustice ! A big word meaning different things to all of us...

My mother died 13 years ago today and as I was thinking of her, the injustice of the things she had to go through came to mind. A husband that left her for another (pregnant) woman leaving behind three small little girls for her to raise alone. My oldest daughter was outraged at being sued by a... Sign in to see full entry.

Has it been days since I've written? Where does the time go when...

you get up in the mornings and walk and around 5 o'clock in the evening you walk again? Well, we started on a walking program on Oct. 1st and my husband has lost about 10-12 lbs. but can we keep this up? Who knows. Men seem to always lose it much faster than us females and I don't have much to lose... Sign in to see full entry.
