So much in life is about taking the next step. Something I'm not great at doing. In one of my numerous attempts at procrastination this weekend, I found a description of my Myers-Briggs personality type (ENTP, The Inventor). True to this, I'm great at ideas and getting started but not the best at following to… Continue reading Step By Step

Last weekend I posted about our lazy Saturday. This Saturday was a one-eighty. The weekend kicked off with me making a passably decent shrimp saag for dinner Friday night. The secret is to utilize a blender and crock pot. I stayed up too late, and my 5:30 wake-up call came way too early for this night… Continue reading Life in the Fast Lane

I've come to realize my definition of relaxing may be a bit different than others. If you've followed my blog very much, you've probably figured out that I'm a pretty high energy person. Saturday, I hit my limit. The energy tank was empty. And in an extremely rare occasion, we had absolutely nothing planned. No… Continue reading Relax

Call me old school, but I'll always be a Peter Furler as front man Newsboys fan. "Shine" and "Breakfast" rank as a couple of my favorite songs of all time. That said, the Michael Tait led Newsboys are pretty great too. Per usual, the title is only a hint at my post's content. This time… Continue reading God’s Not Dead

Yes, I'm wearing argyle socks with suede sneakers from Payless that I bought 7 years ago because that's how I roll. The other day I commented that I've never been smarter, prettier, or cooler. It's not that I think I'm some sort of genius in a killer body with a gorgeous face. I mean if that's… Continue reading Hip to Be Square

A few weeks ago, my debut story, Neatly Arranged, was published. Last week I participated in a blog hop about my writing style and mentioned that I want to write speculative fiction for those who hate it (or at least think they do). Neatly Arranged is a great sample of exactly what I mean. The No Revolution… Continue reading Lawyers In Love

My writing partner Lisa Godfrees talked me into participating in a blog hop on my writing style. If you read her post, you'll see I've paired this post with a song title, albeit I went outside of the 80s for my inspiration. So here it goes. What am I working on? A few weeks ago,… Continue reading At The Hop

Or in this case, he. Two weeks ago, my son won a first place ribbon at the school science fair and advanced to regionals. I'm not sure who was happier. My son or his parental units. As I was helping my son put together the poster board and write the report, I finally figured out… Continue reading She Blinded Me With Science

Last week I went on a short-term missions trip. And when I say short-term, I mean four hours. I was there to support a couple of sibling missionaries. They're young and I'm not sure their faith is at the point where they should even be in the mission field. OK, they're technically not serving as missionaries… Continue reading Another Brick in the Wall
