Welcome to Hodge Podge Wednesday. Here I am, just writing a post on Wednesday morning. I have not been able to get back to having a post ready to go first thing (and/or scheduling posts), but it is what it is. I did, however, have a great first morning walk. …
A Daybook Entry: April 2026
Happy Monday! As I look at the calendar…can it be that we almost at the middle of this month? My mind was thinking it was still the first week of April (and maybe too early for a daybook entry), but that is not the case. Oh my. I think when…
Five Minute Friday: REMNANT
Welcome to Friday! Another week already in the history books. How has your week been? Yesterday, I joined my friends at the monthly “Flock” meeting. The one where they work on the loveliest of blankets (and occasionally other projects) with beautiful yarn. Most are crocheting. A few prefer to knit. …
Hodge Podge and Thinking About My Brother
Hello friends. I hope your week is going well. Time for some “eggs-cellent” questions from Joyce for today’s Hodge Podge. The rest of the fun can be found here. 1. Egg on your face, putting all your eggs in one basket, a good egg, walk on eggshells, nest egg, or a…
Thoughts on the Agenda
Good Monday morning! I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter Sunday yesterday. Our forecast all week had been for rain. And it did eventually rain yesterday, but the weather in the morning was beautiful. The skies were clear and the temperature was very pleasant for a sunrise service. (There have…
Today is Friday but It’s Almost Easter…..
I hope everyone has a special weekend! Easter – the resurrection and Christ’s victory over sin and grave – is what makes all the difference. I am so thankful for a risen savior!! And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that…
The Biltmore and the Cherry Blossoms
Happy Hump Day! And happy first day of April! It is official, I survived winter. March can sometimes be sneaky (and we did, indeed, have some snow last month) but all that is behind me when I turn the calendar to April. I do hope the nice weather we have…
Share Four Somethings: March 2026
Happy Monday and welcome back to the blog. I missed two days last week while I was away and I am looking forward to getting caught up (with blogging and several other things) today. I’m late with this month’s Share Four Somethings post, but still wanted to get in the…
Good Monday Morning 03.22.26
Happy Monday, friend! How was your weekend? The weather was so pretty here, I just had to spend as much time as possible outside. I should have taken a hike. Raked the last of fall’s remnants from the back flowerbed. Something productive. But, I did not. I simply enjoyed both…
Anchored: The Truth of Transforming Grace
The comparison trap. I’ve blogged about it before. More than a few times. But here is a one such post. One from way back in the day and one that is, well, a little bit embarrassing. I certainly hope that, given the circumstances again, I would not respond quite as …
Grateful for Much Today
Hello friends…welcome to the blog today. I hope everyone has been enjoying their week. Mine has been full of blessings so far:) We spent the day on Monday downtown with family who were in town for a school trip. Goodness but their group covered a lot of ground in the…
Some St. Patty’s Fun
Happy Monday, friends! I hope you had a good weekend. Mine was nice although there was a bit of unexpected “craziness.” Just a bit. And I was the one a tad crazy:) I color my own hair and Saturday night seemed like a perfect evening to get that task down. …
