It’s Fall Y’all!
I am pretty sure in heaven it will be fall weather all of the time. We are rounding the corner to pumpkins and 75° and warm drinks and wearing layers and it all adds a spring to my step!
Sometimes I Wanna Be Amish, but I Don’t Want to Make Quilts
Between the book release then a trip to Orlando and a conference last weekend…..it is entirely possible that I am going to die of overexposure to fun. Is that possible? Like, I am actually craving work and house cleaning and salad.
Somebody Bring Me Some Calgon!
OK, it’s official. I am so done with my husband being gone. I already knew he was the solid one in the relationship, but after a week without him I am more sure than ever that he is the glue and I am all of the broken pieces.
Feeling SpOILed
When Mom cleans it is a serious thing. We pulled books off of shelves and dusted, we moved furniture and scrubbed under it.
Be Who You Promise Yourself You Will Be
A couple of years ago when I started getting healthy and traveling so much, I made a commitment to myself to take the stairs whenever I was staying in a hotel. Not sure if this was the best idea!
I’m Trying Not to Be a Mom-Zombie
Right now I’m sitting in the Dallas airport trying to figure out a way to sum up the past few days. I would normally do that on Monday morning, all casual and lounging in my recliner with my kids around me chatting me up.
Retreating
Do you go to retreats? It has been a long, long time since I attended any kind of retreat where I wasn’t speaking or working. But this past weekend I got to go to one and let me tell ya…..I was not prepared for the deep introspection and personal conviction.
A Testimony to the Power of Prayer
Back in the day when my kids were little, my husband would walk in the house at the end of his workday and say, “Hi honey, what did you do today?” And I had nothing to say.
Puppies & Parades
All that to say, we got a puppy. It just happened and now we are all in love with him. He is so little and fun and playful and happy and just what we needed.
Planes, Buses and Friends
I have been home from Utah for 2 days now and I am still worn out from it all! But it was wonderful!
