Let’s Talk

  • Is Your Faith Strong?

    Did you set a goal or some goals for yourself for 2017?  I did!  I’m a goal setter anyway and the first of the year makes it that much more exciting. I love the start of a new month and even the first of the week is an energizer for me.  I keep a journal…

  • Happy New Year!

    May you have a Fabulous New Year!  I love the word fabulous and just had to get it in somehow!  I think it works! I just wanted to tell you, my readers, thank you for visiting my blog and for the notes I’ve received of how something I wrote encouraged you or helped you somehow….

  • My Elvis Crush!

    After a recent trip to Memphis, Tennessee and touring Graceland, many memories of growing up with a major crush on Elvis popped up.  Before I share about our actual trip, I had to set up how serious my crush was.  Here we go….. I was six years old when I first noticed Elvis Presley. I…

  • Loving Your Extended Family Members

    Today’s post will cover three days of articles on the subject of the empty nest years.  I try to take weekends off.  This one will cover, Saturday, Sunday and Monday for my challenge of Writing for 31 Days.  As you can see, I’ve been writing on, Making a Full House a Home For Two. I…

  • Do You Know What Is Going On In Your Country?

  • Where Were You on 9/11?

  • Time to Pray for America!

    I have a dear friend; Donna Watson.  She is rallying everyone she knows to pray for our country each day.  She and her husband have been encouraging others for several months now to set their alarms for 8:00 p.m. each day.  When your alarm goes off, stop and pray for 1 minute for America.  If…

  • A Daddy for Father’s Day!

    Father’s Day is a bittersweet day for me!  As a young girl, I was busy and didn’t ever sit around thinking, “woe is me, I don’t have a dad.” When I was older and became a Christian I began learning how God designed a family.  I wish I could take you back to the days…

  • Remembering, On Memorial Day!

    Memorial Day is a holiday for many; kids are out of school, banks are closed, mail doesn’t run and some stores close early.  This day calls for a cookout with family and friends, right? That is what we did and what fun it was to get together with everyone and catch up and just enjoy…
