So, here we are. We just went through a political battle for the President. The holidays are staring us in the face and people, in general, are just tired. Not everyone’s favorite college football teams are living up to the hype and that is frustrating. Opinions are...

Have you ever just not known what to do in a situation? Am I the only one who overthinks every possible outcome? I dwell on the “what ifs” for so long that the original decision becomes almost extinct. Why do we do this? I think, possibly, it’s because we are trusting...

Unless my parents promised something, which I would hold them to, they would say something like, “We might do that, but it’s not set in stone.” A lot of you may have heard that statement or even made it yourself. The term “set in stone” was made popular in the 18th...

Long before the internet was ever thought of, there was a special day of the year in my childhood. It was the day the Sears Wishbook came in the mail. It always arrived sometime before Thanksgiving. For those of you too young to know what this is, let me explain. It...

I’m going to be honest. This year has rocked my world. I’m probably the oldest, ultimate daddy’s girl there is. He has just always had a way of handling me with my quirky personality that a lot of people just don’t. He’s always brought a sense of “calm” to all of my...

Time becomes more precious the older I get. It seems to go quicker also. When I was young, I just wanted to get that driver’s license. I wanted to graduate high school. Next was career and wedding plans. The list goes on and on. The whole time I was striving to...

My little cat loves to just sit in my lap. It’s his favorite place to be. If I sit in this certain chair, he jumps up there. If I’m there an hour, he’s there an hour. It’s like his whole agenda hinges on when I’m in the chair. He watches me wherever I am to see if I’m...

I love analogies. I love to get a picture in my mind that completely explains a point. My husband likes to fly fish. It’s quite different from fishing with a rod and reel. There seems to be a different art to it. When you cast out, there’s a lot going on with the...
