Tips to Deal With Life’s Floods
My Sunday hike by the flooding Mississippi got me thinking. We all experience floods in our lives: unexpected situations which sweep through our lives, uprooting routine and confusing our plans. Sometimes all we can do is hold on, tread water... and pray. We can be flooded with fear, flooded with pain, even flooded with joy. … Continue reading Tips to Deal With Life’s Floods
A Message from my Dog
A Message From My Dog — Tate taught me a God lesson today: “Stay close to your Master.” My dog has sad brown eyes.

Monday Mood: FOOD!
FOOD!!! Now that I have your attention, let’s talk. Food and Monday Moods go together. Type A words of wisdom: Don’t connect food with your mood. I’ve been known to eat when I’m stressed.

A Quiet Place
