That was the thought going through my mind this morning when I was having computer problems, and wasn’t done with the bulletin and outline yet. The mouse would move; but when I would try any key on the keyboard, it would lock the computer up, and then even the mouse wouldn’t work.
Turn computer […]

I am inspired to step back for a moment because Lazy Daisy has declared this to be Tasty Tuesday . On Tasty Tuesday we are to give ourselves permission to focus on something non- food related to savor or relish. To concentrate on, mull over, treasure, sip, or linger longer over a tasty morsel, be […]

In light of the “profound” thought I had about trying to hard to blog, I took a step back. So, what have I been doing since I’ve “let go” of those things that were bogging me down with blogging? In the sidebar, I have a section called “Works in Progress”. […]

The thought has occured to me that I am trying too hard. I just need to be me, whoever that might be, and just enjoy the blogs around me, but stop trying to be like them. I’m making this way too hard. I need to blog like I journaled. […]

Just thinking…
“Thinking” has seemed to have overrode “getting it down on paper” these past few days. Fro a variety of reasons. There’s that “who is me” factor. Yes, I know. I’m working through a book that should help me define that a bit more clearer. On the […]

A New Beginning
Things I underlined: … you might need to learn how to say no, create boundaries, give up people-pleasing, speak up, reignite your passion, find your purpose; …Define a word makes it more read (i.e. A great life would be …. Define “great”.) … The […]

I haven’t been around much the last couple of days because I have been “dealing” with Real Life stuff. And “dealing” not really the word I’m looking for, because I really enjoyed our time together. But “enjoy” might not be the right word either. See why I haven’t been here? […]

Why this book? The author says this:
For twenty years I searched for the true me. I had no idea who I was or what made me feel confused, overwhelmed, or unsatisfied. I constantly thought there must be something wrong with me. There wasn’t. I just didn’t have the skills to […]

*sigh. Don’t ask. Just accept. And love me anyway…
Years prior to this, I can’t count the number of craft projects I started and never finished. And purses. A revolving door of change. And, if you have been a reader for even a short period of time, you know the […]

I know I wanted to throw myself into the Blogathon project, but this isn’t what I had in mind. Until some issues are resolved, I’m putting the Blogathon on the back burner and not worry about who I’m going to blog for. Worrying about it at this point isn’t going to get […]

This was my response to an email I got about the concern they have about the “cause” that I want to blog for in the Blogathon.
Hi. I know that one of the problems with the internet is that feelings and expressions can sometimes come across the wrong way. So up front, I […]

I first had this titled “Dilemma” — because I had a “problem” and was going to seek some input here. But. Its all worked itself out, and how.
It all centers around my “Blogathon” project, July 29. As usual, I put my cart before the horse, and found myself coming to a screeching […]

This week has been a mixture of things — of tears and laughter. Of production and laziness. Of time shared, of being alone. I suppose in the big picture of things — just another typical week.
A good friend of Ethan’s died. No, not a classmate. His friend was a 93 […]

Search me, O God, and know my heart; Try me and know my anxious thoughts; And see if there be any hurtful way in me, And leadme in the everlasting way. - Psalm 139:23-24

Teach me what I cannot see; If I have done wrong, I will not do so again. - Job 34:32
We often lack objectivity as a defense mechanism. We want to be “good Christians”, but somewhere along the line, we lost our objectivity. “Good Christians” don’t have problems. They never are depressed or […]

The Lord is my light and my salvation; Whom shall I fear? the Lord is my defense of my life; Who shall I dread? - Psalm 27:1

In some respect today was just another day. On the quiet side. David wasn’t at the office — we passed as I was going home, and he was going to the office. He had to take a truck to the shop — which is over an hour away. It […]

You shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. - John 8:32
To be loved unconditionally. What does that feel like? I drive myself crazy sometimes, just trying to be loved or accepted. Trying to win approval. Very often by people that don’t really matter. […]

OK — this isn’t going to work:) When a blogger sits at the keyboard, and does a false start, 2 or 3 times before actually typing, this is not a good thing. I know I have gone from the day to day meme schedule to “simplicitic” blogging, but I usually don’t have a […]

It started with one — and then two — and then it seemed like every day of the week is covered where blogging is concerned, to follow along, with other bloggers, all doing a similiar, but different thing. Its a great idea. It really is. But I seem to be going through […]
