Poetry in Motion- Not!

Well, I’ve done it. It only took months and months of procrastinating but I’ve done it. I wrote a poem. LOL it seems earth shattering to me. It’s not something I think I’ve got a talent for. But, it’s another creative outlet that I’d like to explore. I’m not even sure why. Sure as a child I like to read poetry but I haven’t done that in years. But then again, as I think about it, it’s the...

A Question And My Saga Response

I’m curious, here’s a question for today: Do you like your doctor? I really don’t like mine and keep saying that I’m going to switch. Our insurance requires a PCP so I have to go through their processes. After this experience with poison ivy, as soon as I think it’s over (or possibly before), I’m going to do that once and for all. I have another dr in mind already who is on our insurance. I hated it Monday...

It’s Time I Share. . . More!

It’s really time I start writing in this blog more, isn’t it? No excuses! (I don’t think I could even make them up. . . Not sure why I don’t write more) So, what have I been up to. . . Working I took a new position with our Agency in January and what a relief that has been. I really enjoy it- except when there’s nothing to do. Adopting We’re getting closer to the home study portion. It looks like we’ll...

Truly Expressing Emotions

“Do I like smiles? Yes, but only if they are real and filled with life. And I also like tears. You see, truth is beautiful, no matter what the expression.” ~ Randy Bacon (Porch Blog Challenge) I tend to smile through almost anything. In fact, when I was in the worst pain of my life to date, when my gall bladder wound up being removed, the doctor said there was no way I was adequately describing my pain because I was still smiling....

About Me

Welcome! Hi all! I live in rural East Texas with my husband. I'm passionate about telling our everyday and rather ordinary story through words and pictures here on my blog and on my digitally scrapbooked pages. Geek. Creative. Problem Solver. Traditional. Introverted. Those are all words that you might use to describe me. I love to have fun while stilling keeping it calm and simple.

My thoughts

It's the details that make our pages more than just a photo album with pretty papers and embellishments. In writing our stories- in telling the full story- we remember the value of our own lives, our own story, our history, where we've come from and where we're going.

The Lord bless you and keep you; the Lord make his face to shine upon you and be gracious to you; the Lord lift up his countenance upon you and give you peace. Numbers 6:24-26
