Let’s start off by saying this is the first hour of Miralax. I am not amused. I don’t know anyone who would be amused. I’m just in to my third cup of this mess. My stomach has involuntarily moved like the alien was about to burst through. A stabbing pain rotated around my upper and …
Fake Spanx and Colon Prep
I am officially of the age for horrible things to happen. Stop reading now if you are easily offended. There will be laughs but you will probably want to go laugh in a closet somewhere, kind of like a Baptist hiding at the liquor store. You do it but you don’t want anyone to know …
Full Moon Blogging
Most everyone who knows me or reads any of my posts knows that I have a very difficult relationship with sleep. Most of the time, my body wants me to wake up long before its actually time to get up. This means that I'm usually awake while darkness still blankets the earth. Today was one …
Rose Gold Sunset
I love this time of the evening. It’s when the sunlight outside causes the pink in my curtains to reflect a pretty shade of rose gold in my bedroom. I almost hurry to bed early every night just to soak up the lushness of the colors. Between the roar of the air conditioning with its …
Trust

There are going to be some folks who are in shock when they get to Heaven. There will be people there they never would’ve imagined. People who don’t look like them, maybe people who didn’t even act the way they thought they should act. But that’s the miracle of Jesus. He loves regardless. And so …
Revive Yourself
Being introspective is not for the faint of heart. If we’re doing a good job of it, we have to be able to look at all the parts of ourselves. And, then be willing to call ourselves out on the things that no longer serve us well. Lately, I’ve found myself hoping and praying for …
A Break
Do you need a break? From what? This was a writing prompt for today but it got me thinking. It’s easy to say I need a break from work or from paying bills. But I need a break from these dad blame emotions. Some days I ride the emotional roller coaster like I must like …
If Not for CeCe Winans
Over the last fourteen months I've been on a journey. A journey to find my healing, to find my peace, and to find my purpose. I am not ready to tell my entire story and I'm not sure I will ever be ready to share that part of my life with the world. But, I …
