How did your new year begin? Chaotic and stressful? Relaxing and fun? Mine was congested, as in I have a cold! I know quite a few people who are under the weather so I pray for healing for all of you. Drink lots of fluid and take lots of rest. And if you’re not sick, […]
Looking Forward to 2017
How do you enter a pool? Do you cannonball in, making the biggest splash you possibly can? Or do you walk down the steps, ease yourself in, hop around the cool water until your body adjusts to the temperature? I’m the latter. At least when it comes to everyday things, I like to ease into […]
Weekend Fun and a Tale as Old as Time

Rest and Reset + Giveaway!
I shared a free goal tracker last June. I set a goal to write fiction for at least 15 minutes everyday in July. That did not happen. Now, I’m reevaluating that goal and pressing reset. I’m striking “everyday” from the goal. I’m just going to write fiction in 15 minute increments (at least). I think […]
