Two weeks until Thanksgiving (in the USA). I've been pondering, thinking, considering everything I have to be thankful for. Mostly, I'm thankful for Jesus Christ. He died on a cross as a sacrifice of redemption for our sins. For my sins. The concept is beyond grasping. Next I am thankful for my parents who, even… Continue reading “Thankful n’ Thoughtful”

Moving Forward (Free Chapel)
The New Year, 2026 is only ten weeks away. That's crazy talk, isn't it? When we were eighteen and nineteen years old in the 70's, we never even looked into the 2000's. They didn't exist, but now? Now we are twenty-five years in. (gasp) I love our life. We've been through the good, the bad,… Continue reading Moving Forward (Free Chapel)
Don’t Know Why There’s No Sun Up In the Sky…
Wowza! The southwest has been under the gun of the Pacific hurricanes! Two weeks ago, or was it three? We got pummeled here in Phoenix, receiving 5 inches of rain in our rain gauge. Now that being said, the rain was blowing horizontal, so there may have been much more than that. This week/weekend we've… Continue reading Don’t Know Why There’s No Sun Up In the Sky…
Come Fly With Me (& TJ)
Yesterday was Independence Day! Happy birthday to the USA, & also to our personal firecracker, Sonja, our daughter. We had hamburgers & birthday cake. Then when they left (the family) TJ & I hunkered down with our dog, Ruby. I had to give her some Calm medicine, then cover her with a weighted blanket so… Continue reading Come Fly With Me (& TJ)
Come Saturday Morning…
(I'm going away with my friends (in two weeks)) I can hardly wait. TJ & I are taking Princess #2 to see Princess #1 in Montana. I can hardly wait. We haven't seen her and Prince Charming for about a year and a half. I think. Princess #2 misses Princess #1. A lot. Prince Charming… Continue reading Come Saturday Morning…
I’ve Got Sunshine on a Cloudy Day!
The clouds are unlikely anytime soon, but I am praying daily for God to let the rain come down abundantly... sometime soon would be great. That being said, TJ & I have an event this Sunday! AND the event is in Chandler. Also, it's inside! Chandler Library Local Authors Event: 22 S Delaware Street, Chandler, AZ… Continue reading I’ve Got Sunshine on a Cloudy Day!
All of Me, Why Not Take All of Me?
I love that song. My Dad used to sing all these old songs when I was a kid. My voice isn't the best, but I still sang along. We all did. Dad, Mom, me, and the barfing kid. Dad would take us on road trips for a few hours. We would drive into the desert,… Continue reading All of Me, Why Not Take All of Me?
Valley So Low…
Hi! Did you all know that the song Down in the Valley has another name? Apparently, because the last verse references Birmingham jail, the song's secondary name is just that. Birmingham Jail. Those are the kinds of fun things you'll learn as you read along with me. Trivia. You'll be the Trivial Pursuit champion learning… Continue reading Valley So Low…
