Forty-seven years ago, I married my high school high school beau It’s been a wild ride, we’ve laughed, and we’ve cried We’ve never been rolling in dough. 40+ years of “I do”, sometimes we didn’t – but knew our vow was our path, it’s spiritual math… God makes one out of two. The Air Force […]
The Chosen – to Watch, or Not?
To watch The Chosen, or not to watch? That was my question. I had seen ads for the The Chosen streaming series on facebook for over a year. I always scrolled past. Yeah, yeah, another movie about Jesus. I love Jesus. I am so glad he got a hold of me in my high school […]

Thank You, Betty
For the fourth time in two years, our family has lost a loved one. My sweet mother-in-law Betty moved to her eternal home on January 23, 2022. She was in her 91st year of living, and she lived it fully. It happened quickly, and then, painfully slow. She was relatively well at her 90th birthday […]

I Thought Debt Was a Negative – Silly Me

My husband and I have a joint checking/savings account. In addition, I have a separate checking/savings account. Not because we divide the money, or I […]

Sweet, Sweet September
September has whizzed by. It was a delightful month with travel and family and a few surprises along the way. I have to say, the hubs and I have not experienced a relatively stress-free, smiley kind of month in awhile. It took us some time to adjust to not being caregivers of my folks anymore. […]
