Doubt

August 31, 2009

The past few days I’ve thought a lot about doubt and what it can do in a relationship. This applies to romantic relationships (marriage/dating), friends, parent/child, teacher/student, boss/employee…just about any scenario where two or more are involved can be affected when the seed of uncertainty is planted.

It can start with something so insignificant that [...]

It’s Fun Friday once again and I’d like to borrow a few words from my dear friend Gladys…I love Jesus but I gamble a little! Tonight is P-P-P Poker Night at our home and it’s always a great time. We’ve been hosting these events regularly for the past 4-ish years and they’ve grown [...]

Faith

Today is one of ‘those days’. I’d like to simply blame it on the weather (gray and blah) but somehow I think there may be more to it than that. I think most of us have felt alone at one point or another and I believe that feeling continues to come and go [...]

Passion

Today was a fabulous day in the Pacific Northwest though you could feel a hint of fall in the air. I’m a summer kind of girl so I’m taking as many walks as I can before going back to using the Wii Fit as I watch the rain pour down outside the window.

I love [...]

Last Fun Friday we left off after discovering the safe deposit box held the orb and we’d won The Quest! A few days later we were able to pick up our $5000 (wow) from the Columbian and besides reading a few negative and petty comments on the chat boards (left by sore losers and [...]

Obsession

Have you ever known anyone who completely obsesses over things? If you have dinner at their house do you feel you’re being watched to make sure no crumbs fall on the floor…do they straighten the vase on the table repeatedly when it looks perfectly fine to start with? If you’ve had a meal [...]

Gratitude

It was very difficult to choose a ‘word’ to fit this particular post. There were so many that came to mind…hero, honorable, sacrificial, selfless, brave…these ‘words’ and numerous others only touch the surface to describe the man I want to show my gratitude for. It’s hard to say ‘man’ because he’s like a [...]

I can’t believe it’s Fun Friday again! I’ve already shared some of the tough times we’ve survived (cancer, etc.)…you’ve read all about the creatures that go bump in the night (only in my daughters room)…so as you know we’ve overcome many obstacles (the not so good kind) and it’s time to share a story [...]

Last night was a VERY long night! My daughter came in a few minutes after I climbed into bed saying that a spider bit her leg. How do you know it was a spider… was my first question…to which she replied…I felt it crawling on my leg and now I have a bump [...]

Last week the kids and I got away for a few days while my hubby went on a business trip. We really love hot weather and as long as they have water to stay cool in everyone is happy…so we went to Vegas. Now that the kids are older it works out great [...]
