Update Required.
I was trying to open a new app on my phone and I got the message something like "update software" or "new version required to open this app". I didn't want to take the time to update my phone with the new app. And we all know what happens. We go to update the new...
Walkin’ On The Water.
If you want to walk on water, you've got to step out of the boat. - by John Ortberg I love that saying and I am starting to re-read the book. In Matthew 14:22-33 we see the account of Jesus walking on the water. Peter questioned Jesus from the boat and said, "Lord,...
The Drive Home.
As I was making the solo 3-hour-drive home from my daughter's new apartment, my mind was exploding like fire crackers. I was thinking of all the things I had been praying for and actually organizing my thoughts to start my petitions during this one-on-one time with...

Who Do You Look Like?
The older I get, the more I look like my mother. I'm certainly not complaining about that. I think my mom is beautiful both inside and out. I can only hope to be half the woman, wife and mother she is. When I look at pictures, I see the resemblance. Even our feet...
What Time Is It?
I love unique clocks. On the bulk head above the columns that separate my dining room and living room, I keep the collection of my clocks. When I look at them, I can remember a story about each one - where I bought it or who gave it to me. The surf board is from...
How Do I Get Out Of Here?
We went to the local pumpkin patch yesterday and meandered through the corn maze. Now I am claustrophobic and sometimes these corn mazes make me very anxious. My daughters and I let my 12-year-old nephew lead the way. Of course he thought he knew where he was...
