Today I Choose to Embrace God’s Promises

Today I Voted

Today I voted.  I exercised my civic duty by voting in the 2024 Presidential Election.  There were other items on the ballot, too. Other positions and people and amendments. I voted for these as well. Most of them, anyway. There were a few boxes I left blank, as I wasn’t educated enough to make a […]

Gratitude Challenge 2024

It’s that time of the year again… When the leaves turn to red and orange. When scarves and boots are the go-to wardrobe. When candles, books, and blankets become the main weekend activities.

I would probably also say “today was a hurricane” when it was a stressful day, but that’s not what I mean in this blog.  Hurricane Helene came through this weekend and wreaked unbelievable havoc on the southeast. While hurricanes are common this time of year, the […]

Today I Was Anxious

Today I was anxious.  It’s been a week full of anxiety-inducing events. I felt anxious, unsure, sad, and mad all at the same time. I wonder if maybe you felt the same way? Weeks like this can bring down the morale of the whole culture. Another school shooting, the anniversary of the attack on 9/11, […]

Today I Ate Taco Bell

Today I ate Taco Bell. I ordered my favorite $3 nachos and devoured them with a side of spicy potatoes! Nachos have always been one of my favorite foods. Matt and I even served a nacho bar at our wedding! When it comes to chips, cheese, and whatever other toppings happen to be available, I […]
