This is what unemployment should look like in America. Do what you know how to do even if it’s hard, don’t wait for the government to fix things. Chris lost his big consulting job in April. Many of you know that, it is no big secret. He has had numerous opportunities show up and forContinue reading “What Unemployment in America should look like…”

The Umbrella Policy
Our Pastor, Ebb Fox, talked to us about Acts 27 where a very real and present danger was being lived out on a ship with a bunch of non-believers and one confirmed believer. God was in that storm, on that doomed ship with a prisoner, the Apostle Paul. As it turned out, because God hadContinue reading “The Umbrella Policy”
My Son the Negotiator
Some months ago Glen found a jet ski for free on Craigslist. Let’s be honest, it could have been years ago, they have stuff stashed in the woods and as long as I can’t see it fine. Chris always encourages their interest and will hop in the truck with the tow trailer and pick upContinue reading “My Son the Negotiator”
A Fall in the Garden (not that garden)
Dear Diary, Life is full of lessons. Some you really don’t even want to know. I learned never to hang the gate hooks on the fence like this… and if I do then NEVER touch or lean on any part of the fence, NOT EVEN those parts that don’t have electric wire on them. ThisContinue reading “A Fall in the Garden (not that garden)”
An open letter to my husband.
Dearest Chris, Thank you for loving me so well that it reflects in the way our boys love me too and all my crazy ways. When I called them from the turkey pen to say Bill Riddle was sick and we have to take him to the animal hospital, they did not hesitate, just likeContinue reading “An open letter to my husband.”
Boojee, Bad Dreams, Roosters, and Varicose Veins – A perfect storm.
I just opened the Keep Notes App and have to gather my thoughts. This is where I come to thumb out the words when I have an important idea to capture, or experience to convey in writing, or if I need dryer sheets at Walmart, getting my points, meanings, and grocery lists together. It’s notContinue reading “Boojee, Bad Dreams, Roosters, and Varicose Veins – A perfect storm.”
Missing the Boat
Nothing grabs my attention like a post such as this. The gravity of it, just as it is defined as that extreme or alarming importance. I remember when Christopher was a toddler, it dawned on me that as I was teaching him to point at his eyes, nose, mouth and we sang songs of farmContinue reading “Missing the Boat”
Assurance of Salvation
Assurance in your Salvation that was paid for at the cross is not a one time proclamation of faith but rather an ongoing work of the grace of God in your life. A work that shows fruit in your life that is brought about through correction and refocus when you get it wrong, not condemnedContinue reading “Assurance of Salvation”
The Snake and Chicken Half Marathon
Never a dull moment for me, I go from can to can’t… Some days I do that before 1pm. Today is one of them … I found my eggs all scattered and knew something was wrong. Next thing I knew I was eye to eye with a six foot snake big around as the endContinue reading “The Snake and Chicken Half Marathon”
Prayer – Helmet of Salvation
Dear Lord, My helmet, You have given me, is as strong as it is precious. Thank you for justifying me from my past, sanctifying me daily. Your salvation is my rescue and my defense, it restores me daily. My heart and mind will always be re-directable when I rest in You, Your Word, and YourContinue reading “Prayer – Helmet of Salvation”
