I know that this is a busy week so I’m going to ‘gift’ you with a short, easy-to-read article! I think that this gift is going to change any challenges that come up during the holidays and into 2021. Did you know that just like a computer you have a ‘reset’ button? Yes, you do! […]
Read MoreWho would have thought?
I’ve been thinking how adaptable we are as humans. We now: *wear masks *social distance *meet in small groups *know which restaurants offer carry out and which are closed *sanitize our hands beyond belief *don’t hug *attend church online *work from home *we are limited to visiting anyone in the hospital or nursing home *homeschool […]
Read MoreA bubble fail
Chris and Ashley took Addie on a fun weekend trip to Seattle, so I got Alex for 3 whole days! Oh, we had such fun! One day we were blowing bubbles outside and, of course, he wanted to do it himself. He set everything up for success but then he tried too hard and then […]
Read More13 children
My grandma had 13 children. 13! This was way before indoor plumbing, dishwashers, washing machines, etc. It just baffles my mind how she got so much done and she didn’t have an organizing app or time management tools!

When my children were young I had 4 children age 5 and under. When the youngest turned 5 we had our 5th child. Yes, many called me crazy! It was a busy, busy time and some days I didn’t know how I could do it. Now they are adults and I find myself longing for […]
Read MoreReach out your hand
You know what is not talked about near enough? Mental health. Depression is a big one. I have had this illness for as long as I can remember. For a long time I suffered in silence and wondered “what is wrong with me?” Then, praise Jesus, I asked for help and am now working with […]
Read MoreIs that laundry I see in your home office?!
How is this working from home thing doing for you? Since it’s been going on for quite a few months I’m sure you’ve figured out ways to get your work done plus connect with the household. But maybe it’s time for a refresher. For the past 20 years I’ve worked out of my home and […]
