This Place

I debated sharing my heart about this, but I just have to. I want all of you (whoever you are…we know we have lots of lurkers and we are thrilled you like us!) to feel my heartbeat at this amazing, scary, fun, life-altering, God-given and stressful time in my life. Tomorrow is my last dayContinue reading “This Place”

Thanks for the Header

Egg Drop Goodness – August 2007 I feel terrible for not saying “Thanks” sooner to Lindsey for making our header. (She made 4 of them, actually!) Lindsey is super special to our family. Everyone that has met her from Memphis to Fort Smith has fallen in love with her and always asks, “How is Lindsey?”Continue reading “Thanks for the Header”

Wonderful Words of Life

Mrs. Carolyn (my dear friend at work-read past posts) gave me a letter this morning with thirteen lessons to always remember as I journey on into my new path in life.I want to share them with you. My life will not be an apology. It will be a statement.Jehovah moves mountains to create the opportunityContinue reading “Wonderful Words of Life”

Meet My BFF

Today I have decided to count my blessings and name them one by one (are you singing it with me?). One of those blessings is my BFF, Melissa (A.K.A. “Licca Lou”, “Lissy” or “MJ” – I use all these names. It is a bit insane, I know). She is going to be embarrassed that IContinue reading “Meet My BFF”

Floaties, A Snotty Nose and $1 meat = Great Day!

I have some of the best friends. After my post about the treading water and being helped out by a raft, my bff emailed me and said she couldn’t send me a “raft” but she was sending some “cool floaties”! Well, my cool floaties arrived by UPS today while I was gone.Let me digress- SamuelContinue reading “Floaties, A Snotty Nose and $1 meat = Great Day!”

I Always Picture Her Laughing…

I like to make a point to thank God often for special friendships. I blame it on moving away from everything familiar and safe when I graduated from college and got married. I love making new friends, but nothing replaces those solid, “been through it all” friends.Friendship. It comes in the most unlikely places. GodContinue reading “I Always Picture Her Laughing…”

Goofy Challenge

Pray for my old marathon coach and favorite 5k bud this weekend as he participates in the Goofy Challenge at Disney in Orlando. He will run a half marathon (13.1 miles) on Saturday and a full marathon (26.2 miles) on Sunday. Yep, he is one goofy guy! John has trained for this very event forContinue reading “Goofy Challenge”

We’ve Done It!

We have completed a full week of a new year. I wanted to update you on how I am doing on my goals. I am beginning my 2nd non-fiction book and haven’t read a fiction one yet. Which, I know for those of you that really know me might find hard to believe, but itContinue reading “We’ve Done It!”

True Laughter

We were laughing outloud in this picture – how fun! Last weekend I went to visit my dear friend, Lindsey and see her new home. We had the best time catching up. We had not seen each other in well over two years…sad times! Melissa came on Saturday with baby Grant to shop and eatContinue reading “True Laughter”

Friends, Birds and the Potty

Part 1 of 3!!! I have talked to some of my friends lately and the conversation has always turned to spending time with friends. We all want to spend time with each other, but we are unable to make time for it. I think it is important to keep up with friends and make timeContinue reading “Friends, Birds and the Potty”
