  This is what I heard in the kitchen at work recently when I asked a fella near the utensils to toss me a plastic knife… which I subsequently bobbled. I chuckled and said “my wife is the athletic one, I’m the musical one.” But seriously, that speaks to a couple things… [...]

  I was looking over my Thanksgiving post from last year, and am happy to report that nearly everything on last year’s list is still gratefully on this year’s thanksgiving list! The only changes are that I am no longer working from my own custom office, and that I am not [...]

• God’s people building bridges?

  Number of comments: 7
  I sure hope so! I am a stranger in a strange land. Having moved to a new state this summer, many things are new, different, displaced, and fresh. I am feeling the inkling to look for a place to worship that is welcoming. I attended a Lutheran church in OR. for [...]

  Couldn’t we all use such a sign pointing us to new hope? I sure know that I could! That’s why I snapped it on my way to work the other morning (speaking of which, I have to run to work). Here’s to new hope with clear direction for all of us! [...]

• Simply spectacular Sunday

  Wow! 11/15/09… well into Fall, and on our way to Winter. But today is a reprieve from the cold wind, rain and gray skies. (Took this pic. today in our yard). Today, it is blue skies, warm breeze and feels like 70 degrees. How grateful I am for these little respites [...]

• Behind the eyes…

  Number of comments: 7
  Do you ever wonder what is behind the eyes of people you encounter? I sometimes (well, often) do. There is so much more behind my eyes than I ever let on. There’s nothing wrong with a little mystery, right? I think the only person who surprises me with how much they [...]

• The life of Riley

  Number of comments: 7
  It dawned on me today as I sat through a long arduous (overly simplistic) training at the company where I was offered a job here in PA.,  that I was extremely spoiled the previous 5 years. Being able to have my own business, set my own schedule, enjoy my own [...]

• Reclaiming the word “permission”

  Number of comments: 6
  As a woman who grew up in an extremely conservative merciless home and church environment, the word permission was a “dirty word” for me. I had to ask for permission for everything! I couldn’t go to the bathroom at school without permission. I couldn’t leave the table at home without [...]

• What’s it all about anyway?

  Number of comments: 7
  I have so much sadness and frustration surrounding how individuals who were once friends, allies or even family, use religion to control, damage or sever relationships.
