Pink Crayons, Changes and Gratitude

November 25, 2013

It appears that time continues to march on. This picture is already a few weeks old and the willow tree is devoid of any leaves, but I thought the picture a fitting one for this post. It captures all three things on my mind today: colorful and beautiful pictures, seasonal changes, and the feeling of…

Fabulous Facelift – Clearing Clutter, Phase 2

September 4, 2012

With the food storage room standing as a beacon of hope, we dug into the next phase of de-cluttering on Saturday. To begin, I have to share a few photos of the back bedroom we had cleaned the week before. It was emptied and the carpet torn out. I had prepped the floor and for…

Fabulous Facelift – Clearing Clutter, Phase 1

September 4, 2012

The hard work has officially begun. They say you have to make a mess to clean a mess. I’m finding this to be most true! Before we can get to the repair, maintenance and upgrade projects in the house we have to clear the clutter. Last week we tackled the forbidden fruit room. No pun…

I Missed It

October 4, 2011

Admittedly, I loved being a desert rat. Living in the desert southwest was full of the most amazing weather during what I knew to be the worst time of year growing up. The months of October through April are so beautiful in Arizona, the temperatures so mild and even. It was like the best of…

Turning

September 26, 2011

My thoughts this morning are centered around the time of year. The leaves are turning colors, getting ready for a winter sleep. This process of change, of preparing for a period of dormancy is a pattern in our lives too. A new baby makes me think of spring, a walk in the autumn air with…

Shifting

April 27, 2011

I’m sitting here trying to compile a few thoughts and I find they keep shifting. Hmmm, that’s a clear representation of my life at the moment. Ironically, I now live in earthquake territory so maybe my sub conscience is trying to adapt? Perhaps, this is in part to blame for my lack of blogging lately.…

Prepared

March 1, 2011

The wise advice to be prepared is timeless. Yet, I’m continually surprised at the depth of it. There was a time when it meant being ready to take a test or turn in an assignment; a time when it was about hitting a work deadline, and eventually a time when it was about taking steps…

So Much To Process

August 6, 2010

A lot has happened in the past couple of weeks. First, we got a call that Blake’s grandma Faye wasn’t expected to live beyond a few days to a few weeks. This is a picture of her (front row, third from the left) in 2003, when Taylor’s adoption was finalized. Last summer, we visited her…

Some Things Never Change ~ Some Do

July 1, 2010

Well, I’ve been away from my blog since returning to work. It’s a lot harder to find time for things like this than I thought it would be. I’m sitting here right now trying to decide how much priority to place on it. Because I’ve never blogged for anything but personal interaction and recording I…

A Lot Can Happen

June 6, 2010

I’m sitting here reflecting on how much can happen in such little time. In just the past six months our family got a dog, my daughter cut 6 inches off her hair and got braces, I got a new calling at church and a job, and I’m having to cut off all my son’s long…
