Dinner could not get done soon enough for me. I was hungry. All I'd had for lunch was a few bites of ice cream. But, the hamburger was thawing from frozen, so my husband couldn't hurry it.

I didn’t want to get out of bed this morning. After pulling on my jeans, teeshirt and houseshoes, I poured a cup of coffee, wrapped up in a blanket on the couch and wished I could just read all day. “I don’t want to adult today,” I told the cat.

Masks, Sheep, and the Lamb

Featured sjwellsauthorLeave a comment

Yesterday was the first day I wore a mask in public for any length of time. It made my face too warm, and it made me feel as if I should keep my mouth shut. LOL That was not the strangest part of it, though. As a person who is totally blind, I rely on… Continue reading Masks, Sheep, and the Lamb

Words to live by

As an author and a homeschool mama who happens to be blind, I’ve learned that the only way to make it in this life is to rely fully on God. Best way to do that is read His Word.

 

“I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.” Philippians 4:13 KJV

 

“But my God shall supply all your needs according to his riches in Glory by Christ Jesus.” Philippians 4:19 KJV
