What blisses you out?
I’m totally blissed out today…
Riding in my car, windows down, warm summer breeze brushing my skin, Elton John is crooning from my CD player…I’ve got it cranked up too.

Piglet became afraid.

“No, are they here?” I was excited myself. I’d been waiting on baited breath to see my newest book baby.
“Yes, I checked the tracking number with UPS and they were delivered. They’re on your doorstep now!”

A beloved teacher says that the people and circumstances in our lives offer us invitations into fear.
I received an invitation into fear yesterday, with an RSVP.
On my morning walk, I decided to go down a certain street. No sooner had I turned down that street than did I look to my right, only to see [...]

I’m eating crow today.
The other morning, I had a blow up with my beloved hubby (rest assured I was not calling him beloved the other day).
Of course, I was convinced he was wrong. I’ll tell you more about that later.
