  • Journal Entry for March 13, 2008

    Thursday, March 13, 2008

    I had two doctors’ appointments this week (Tuesday the 11th and Wednesday the 12th).

  • My incredible journey!

    Friday, June 6, 2008

    To some of you this may not seem incredible, but for some like me it has made me a true believer in my heavenly father,  not that I wasn't already.  I believe that God presented me with this journey at a time in my life where I felt as though I was in a very deep dark place.
    Twenty three years ago I married a man 15 years my senior, he was good to me for the fisrt 12 years of that ma...

  • FOREST WALK

    Friday, June 6, 2008 | An Inspiring story

     
    This forest is awesome.  It is cool and a little dark where we walk -  the sun filters through above - it is magical.
    The trees wrapping around one another as they grow.  I would like to live in this forest.  I could use SOMETHING wrapping around me:)
    It's a little like a wonderland - I expect pixies to leap out at any point - Heinze loves it too.  I wish the deer...

  • Affirmation for October 15, 2009: Joan Lunden

    Thursday, October 15, 2009 | An Inspiring story

    Holding on to anger, resentment and hurt only gives you tense muscles, a headache and a sore jaw from clenching your teeth. Forgiveness gives you back the laughter and the lightness in your life.
    ~Joan Lunden
    Have a great Thursday.
