Clearly, I’m laundry challenged…. This is a load I started on Saturday, topped with the load from last night. It’s clean. It’s dry. It’s just booorrrring! I’m trying to talk Tony into taking laundry back again. Time to pray and fast… Wink.
Today, I did Christmas stuff
I’d planned on starting edits today, but woke up realizing I needed to get Christmas shopping finished. I headed out early to avoid the rush.Around 11:30, I finished at the mall and drove over to the beach to get my nephews some cool surfer dude trinkets. Had a slice at Bizzaro’s pizza, sat on the boardwalk in the wind and …
DONE! Oh, so done
I’m done, finished, type the last line of Lost In Nashvegas’s first draft! Yahooooooo! 84,962 words, not including the roughly 10K I deleted after Nashville. I’m so glad. So relieved. So excited to start editing tomorrow. I can get four good days in before leaving on the 21st for Christmas. Speaking of Christmas. Beka called me yesterday and said twelve-year-old …

For 2006… here’s a thought. Also, Happy Birthday, Tony.
This was on my heart all day yesterday. Words. What we speak over ourselves as much as what we speak over others. Words mean things. Witchcraft is just speaking curses so that spirits of darkness can agree and move, influence, reek havoc.God spoke and the world was created. Jesus called in a loud voice, “Lazarus, come forth!” And a dead …

Still in the basket, in the laundry room, the clean clothes wait. This morning I …
Girls Christmas Lunch and Ornament Exchange
About ten years ago, the ladies at Harris Publishing Systems started a tradition. I like traditions, don’t you? Every year, we go to lunch or dinner to fellowship and exchange Christmas Ornaments. We always have great fun, and even though some of us don’t work there any more, we are still invited. I love seeing familiar faces and hearing the …
Last night at the Fire Dweller…
… prayer meeting I “blew” Jim Maher’s expectations. Picture me, one raised eyebrow. Here’s the story. I cut my worship teeth under Jim when he was our senior pastor and worship leader. He’s reminiscent of Kent Henry if you need a comparison. Yet, all the while I knew Jim, I was only a singer. When God called him to Kansas …

Where the Wild things are is my favorite children’s book. I ditto Tracey here. When we went through family things after my father died, I found my childhood version of this book. …
A quote. And a story about my dog
During prayer one day, the Lord said to a great woman of God I know. “You deny my power to transform your life by your undue and unrelenting focus on your own weakness. How true is that? What a great word? We focus on our own weakness, our powerlessness and decide God can’t do anything for us. There is no …
