I like to make people laugh and then say, "hmmm." If I have done that then I have successfully changed the way you have seen the world.
There is a bible verse that says God will exchange “beauty for ashes, The oil of joy for mourning, and the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness.” Which is all good and well when you’re reading it, but it doesn’t feel so good when a person is in the first part of each of those exchanges.
This year I’m going to be thirty plus twelve. So I got an idea, and invited my bible study class to come over and share some country food. I love all kinds of food, but my heart really gets into food from the Southern region of the states. […]
A friend that has gorgeous daughters brought this story back to memories. She has three gorgeous daughers; and if they have her sense of humor and bubbly personality-boys will be an issue in the years to come. So I told the father of the three girls, also known […]
O.k. We are going back to school. I am teaching and my sons are going to college. Charlie is my baby and the did I teach him all he needed to know about life questions are lurking in the recesses of my mind. So those last minute conversations are frequent […]

I mentioned in earlier posts that I have visited the same dentist for most of my adult life. I visited one other dentist for one visit and let’s just say that ain’t happening ever again! And if it weren’t for the fact that every year since he has […]
So what is a girl to do? The dentist knew who he was dealing with. Perhaps going to the same dentist for my adult life was not such a great idea after all. He is good, really good. Did you know an infection from a cavity can bore through your sinus cavity up to your brain and kill you? Neither did I!
When I was growing up my mother had a (let’s be frank) boring menu. Monday was meatloaf, Tuesday was pork chops, Wednesday -fried chicken, Thursday spaghetti and Friday was either hot dogs or Red Baron Pizza. Dad cooked on the weekends so it was usually BBQ or KFC. […]
Never in my life have I been so happy to hear the misuse of a car horn. I was so happy I yelled back like a New Yorker. “Talk to the Bozo in the Jeep over there!”
