Improving my love of life…. through loving God, self and others
I have a friend who is young, smart, talented and very single. By that I mean that she considers herself eligibly unlucky, watching all her friends and family tie the knot while she has yet to meet anyone who she would consider marriage material. This woman is gorgeous and faithful that God will provide a... Continue Reading →
This is a typical day at my back door. The dogs are always so desperate to go outside, they run around the backyard exactly one time and then back to the door to happily get inside. The cats mostly come and go as they please, but must have assistance, so the game goes all day... Continue Reading →
Want to hike the Grand Canyon? This was a quick text my husband sent me a couple of years ago. He went on to say that he was having lunch with a friend who hikes it each year and we were invited to join him. It sounded like a great idea, neither of us had... Continue Reading →

I looked in all the usual places but didn’t mention it to my guy because he HATES to lose things, gets very frustrated and tends to focus only on the finding. I knew they weren’t completely lost anyway, just not in... Continue Reading →
My guy and I were sitting on some large rocks, taking in the beauty of the Mediterranean Sea. The sun was starting to set and couples were coming near with food and drink and blankets to watch the last few minutes of light leave their world. He asked me which way I wanted to take...

After several days in Amsterdam I had a craving for my daily fruit/vegetable juice and went to my trusty Trip Advisor app to find a juice shop. It was a good distance away, involving taking a tram and walking several blocks in an area I had not yet seen. At first I was hesitant, but... Continue Reading →
Do you ever find yourself in the middle of a busy day, blind with hunger and no plan for lunch? It seems to happen to me way too often, like I should be surprised that I need to eat again. This is nothing new for me, but lately I have been struggling with being able... Continue Reading →
