    Monday- I am thankful for…

    Doughnuts. Those sweet circles of goodness that for a few seconds can distract my brain from the chaos of life. I know I hear ya. Stress eating is bad. I am sure that Hanson Gregory, an American, who claimed to have invented the ring-shaped doughnut in 1847, did not mean for me to use them as…

    Sunday- I am Thankful for…

    Today is the first day of my birthday week. I have decided for the thought of the day, I will leave you with one thing that I am thankful for and the reason why we should be thankful. It will not always be a deep emotional thought, though it might be. This week should be…

  • Not Today

    Not Today

    Today is not the day to worry. Today is not the day to panic. Today is not the day to focus negative thought. Today is not the day to fight. Today is not the day to doubt. Today is the day to love. Today is the day to appreciate what you have. Today is the…

    Smiles

    Share smiles not frowns. If you are like me you are sad that you can’t hug your friends right now. I am even limiting how much I hug my family. We can share a smile at no risk. I am a smiling fool. Every time I see a sad or more often a scowling person…

    Words

    I love words. They can be heavy or light. Words can be harmful or hurtful. Words can be helpful or wise. Words have power. In this crazy new normal we find ourselves in, be mindful as to how you use words. Do not deliberately use them for false information. Use them instead for spreading kindness…

    Trust

    Warning: Today’s thought is deep. Who do you trust? It’s easy to say, “I trust you”, do you really though? What does that mean? The trust I have for coworkers and friends is different from the trust I have for my children. The trust I have for my children is different from the trust I…

    It’s a New Day

    When the chaos of this life causes you to be exhausted and anxious remember tomorrow is a new day. As much as I detest old worn out sentimental expressions, I have to admit this one is a fact. Do not under estimate the power of a good night’s sleep and a snuggle from your mate,…

    To Each Their Own and Be True

    It is no secret that I am a Christian. I do not often say that out loud or write it because it sets preconceived images of who you think I am in your head. I am not a traditionalist. I often say that I practice no B.S. Christianity. You might be exposed to several different…

  • Thank you, Elders

    Thank you, Elders

    In this crazy world that we find ourselves in today I am thanking my grandparents. My mother’s parents in particular today. They taught me how to live well on very little. My grandparents grew up in rural Alabama in an age where if something was broken you fixed it. They grew vegetables, baked bread and…
