Tattoos and An Update

Tattoos really aren’t my thing {just being honest}. Not for me personally. If you, my sweet friend, want every limb and your entire trunk tattooed to the umpteenth degree – –   you go!   I was already a pin cushion much of my life with shots for the Multiple Sclerosis and medical procedures, so…

Honestly…

Well Abi, Ryan and Finn left early this morning.   So very hard to see them go.   San Francisco is such a long ways away.   Christmas is over.    The extra special days {that only come once or twice a year}.   The days that ya’ wish would never end.   All the excitement and festivities…

That Guy

We are closing in on finishing up the inventory from the fire.  Truly, there have been months that I was unable to work on it.  It was just too overwhelming from many vantage points, especially emotionally.   But we are getting down to the wire and it must be completed. Yesterday I worked most of…

Nets

Probably one of the most important posts I have written in a really, really, long time.  Grab a cup of something hot and settle in.  Hear my heart as I open up about something the Lord is doing in my life. Sometimes the Lord speaks so clearly and profoundly  – – –   and our lives are never,…

The Apple

Yesterday I was outside early in the morning walking Emma’s puppy Charlee Louise and our Nelly up and down our lane. My heart was heavy and burdened. Someone we love so very, very much has encountered just about the worst imaginable circumstance. She is a ‘daughter’ to us. Her situation couldn’t even have been dreamed…

The Battle

Yesterday I mentioned that I wanted to share some things that are going through my noggin at this moment. I am confident that the Lord wants to use this present struggle in my life to encourage many of you who are in your own struggles…..but that will only be possible if I share openly. I…

Waiting

There is nothing really fun about waiting. I know everyone of you understand what I’m talking about. All of us have spent time in the “waiting room”…whether it’s waiting for a job, a job change, a decision someone needs to make that will affect you, a potential spouse to come into your horizon, children to…

Uh-oh

OH my. Yesterday afternoon I had to go somewhere. I was gone for several hours. When I returned home I went to moderate comments for the picture I had posted of Elijah and Jubilee. As I was reading the comments I thought, “Hmmm. Why are so many people commenting on a previous post?” My church…

Only One Life

Ahhhh……where to begin….where to begin?As I was thinking about this post, I was thinking about the highs and lows of life. Just two years ago on July 11th, Dw called me from Africa and said, “Linny, how big are your arms?” “Oh Whitey, how many are you bringing me? How many?” The amazing thrill and…
