“So Anyway” Friends

One of the reasons I love blogging is because it allows me to pursue friendships the way I best like to communicate-which is with written words. Sounds awful but I am an introvert and really like being alone. I struggle with real life friendships. I have friends that are refueled by spending quality time with [...]

Just Two Pounds To Go

This is not a meaningful post, no reference to God’s word or how it applies to my life, no wit nor humor and no tales of redemption. Just a post about 2 pounds. The final 2 pounds in the roller coaster that is my weight control plan. I’m not considered “overweight”. I’m healthy and my BMI [...]

Would You be More Proud of Dating Brad Pitt Than You Are of Your Relationship with God?

I think Brad Pitt has a lot to teach us about our relationship with God. Would you be more proud of dating Brad Pitt than you are of your relationship with God? Brad Pitt would not be my first choice for a celebrity crush. I flew my Team Aniston flag high and proud and have issues with [...]

Gravity is What Happened to Me

It happened one morning. The morning that I officially turned 32 and 2 months. I woke up and something was different, a little off. I felt funny and less-light and airy, so to speak.  What happened to me that morning you ask? Gravity. Gravity is what happened to me. Every part of the human body that [...]

Should Serving God Make You Miserable?

If the church is Christ’s bride*, how is it that I act like the bridesmaid from hell? (*Controversy on whether Israel or the Church is really the bride referred to in scripture. I am going with the church because it fits my story and as the author, I can sorta do what I want). I work for [...]

A San Diego Charger Cheerleader Made Me Do It

How is it possible that a San Diego Charger cheerleader made me eat a whole pie? Well, okay, she did not MAKE me eat the pie. She did not force it down my throat or hold a pom pom to my head and threaten me with pancake makeup and lip liner to get me to [...]

Oh Yes, The Pie Will Be Mine

I was given the gift of a pie last night. I love pie. I have blogged about pie. I will do pretty much anything for a piece of pie. When I am upset, pie makes it all better. When I have an important decision to make, pie makes it easier to decide.  If I wasn’t [...]

Forgive and Be Forgiven: I Hurt People Too

I’m learning a new lesson in forgiveness this week.  Nine years ago today my best friend Patricia walked away from our friendship.  No call, no note, nothing to explain her sudden departure.  Dan and I were engaged and Patricia was to be my Maid of Honor.  We were scheduled to go shopping and hopefully find [...]

I Have An Inkling – Part II

“ No one discovers their passion, it is built on an inkling”. Marcus Buckingham Since Perryann was 7 I have signed her up for every sport or activity that I thought she might enjoy.  All of it in an effort to find her “passion”, that thing she would love to do.  I encouraged her to play soccer [...]
