“So I will wake and spend my days loving the One who has raised me up… You’re making all things beautiful.” Lyric by Bethel I’m sitting here listening to worship music, and I’m having a bit of a melt-down.

Black Mold of Discontent
Old post from an old blog of mine. Thought I would re-post. Originally written October 05, 2013 Black Mold: How quickly it spreads right under your nose I finally decided that it was time to clean the floor in my kitchen. My feet have been sticking to it for about 3 months now. Yuck! I don’t know why… Read More
Lyme Update – My Lyme Story (Part 3)
Lyme Update – Feeling Better It has been about 6 weeks since I received my treatment from Dr. Smith. There are so many things that have happened during this time that I am so grateful for.

Warm Breeze in the Dead of Winter
I just finished my Pilates video where they end by having you imagine yourself in a hammock. It is so relaxing I found it difficult to get up off of the floor afterwards. I probably could have just slept the night right there. Aaaaahhhh. It amazes me how good some simple stretching and breathing exercises make my body feel (check… Read More

So I bit the elephant (started a blog), now what?!
I bit the elephant (see my first post Bite That Elephant). I started this blog. Now it’s sitting on my chest. I wrote my first post, and I felt an immediate sense of pride and accomplishment, but what now? I’m overwhelmed. I’m not sure what to do. I have a site of my own, woohoo, and I have one interesting… Read More
