Summertime is the perfect time to try something new. Don’t you think? It has always been that way for me, whether intended or not. I rode a jetski for the first time during the summer of 1989. That was the same year I went out of state to a church camp for children who are… Continue reading Time for Something New

A Little Bit Stir-crazy
Hungry mamas are dangerous creatures when they see posts on FB about cakes. Dear weather system bringing all this heat to WV, iff I had wanted Florida weather, I would have went to live there. I did laundry and dishes and set my 12 and 14 year old to sweeping and cleaning the bathroom. Goes… Continue reading A Little Bit Stir-crazy

The Amish Friendship bread I had for breakfast reminds me of my math teacher in high school. She used to make it and bring it in… Continue reading Some Memories and a Parable

A verse he highlighted was Matthew 24:13, “But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.” Endure: Verb. suffer (something painful or difficult) patiently. A similar word, given when I googled the definition, was experience. He that shall… Continue reading A Time of Endurance
