Groovy, man. We might be the last remaining people in the United States who have a sliding glass door. When we first moved into this house, we had to replace the original sliding door. It would have been the perfect... Continue reading

I feel all those "waiting" situations! Waiting on grandbabies without saying a word....hmmm! Easier said than done, right?? Prayers for spouses for our kids are the top of the list....I know He will answer prayer in His timing.

That sounds like a book I'd love! I just love the descriptions of the animals and nature (including wild donkeys, did you notice??) that show his power. I'm so excited that Bob will be home soon! You must be beside yourself. I don't know how you've done it for 3 years!!

Marie, I saw that Tim's body was found and am so heartbroken for his family. I'm praying that God will comfort them in this unimaginable situation. So, so horrible.

Samantha, prayer and letting things sit are both hard to do...good for you to wait for a good moment to talk! The Lord will give you wisdom in this situation - and it sounds like He is already doing it!

HAHAHA....the sock scenario would have been so much easier!! I know it's hard not to have the last word and I'm really working on that myself. This one is a challenge!

Ll - way to go!! I admire people with shredders. I need one so badly but I don't have a place to put it so I talk myself out of it every time I consider getting one. Enjoy your accomplishment!

I absolutely love it when one thing leads to another. It never fails to delight me to get "more" done than I intended. Enjoy the feeling of accomplishment, girl!

Hey, when is the last time you had a big, juicy piece of fruit? If you're struggling to remember, it's a safe bet that's too long ago. Personally, I'm just coming out of a sugar-induced coma, what with all the... Continue reading
