Praise You in This Storm

Posted in Christian Living, Christianity, God, Jesus, Songs with Meaning, Spirituality, lyrics on December 28, 2007 | 3 Comments »

I thought I’d once again share the lyrics of a song that I’ve found to be particularly meaningful and helpful in the midst of the storms that have been raging in my life lately.  Perhaps the song will minister to someone else’s heart, as well.
 
Praise You in This Storm (lyrics)
I was sure by now
That You [...]

Journaling my “journey”

Posted in Day-to-Day on December 28, 2007 | 3 Comments »

I hope everyone had a nice Christmas.  Ours was fine.  Pretty quiet but fine.  We even had snow for a bit during Christmas dinner … so it was a White Christmas (at least for an hour or two). 
Sorry I haven’t been in touch since the holiday.  I decided to start keeping a journal (just [...]

My oldest daughter, Kelsey, has a cute story on her blog and I thought I’d link to it for those of you looking for a good chuckle on Christmas.

No, I’m not still cleaning my house

Posted in Day-to-Day on December 23, 2007 | 7 Comments »

Sorry I’ve been scarce all week.  Just in case you’re wondering, no, I haven’t been cleaning constantly since the last post. 
Nothing huge and important to report.

Finished my Christmas shopping.

Had to clear out some boxes and display cases from the antique store where I had a vendor’s booth. Sorted through a number of those [...]

Is it Monday yet?

Posted in Day-to-Day, cleaning, family, homemaking, housework on December 13, 2007 | 4 Comments »

This morning I woke up and decided that because I have a clear day in my schedule today, I’m going to spend the majority of the day cleaning house.  Sounds like fun, doesn’t it? 
After putting up the Christmas tree yesterday and getting out the assorted Christmas decorations from storage, I felt overwhelmed by “stuff.”
For some reason [...]

Amy’s new holiday “bed” (or is it more of a nest?).

Breath of Heaven

Posted in Amy Grant, Christianity, Christmas, Christmas music, Day-to-Day, Faith, God, Songs with Meaning, Spirituality, holidays, lyrics on December 7, 2007 | 3 Comments »

Sometimes songs really touch my heart and minister to me.
It’s been probably a year since a song has affected me deeply, but the other day I was in the car listening to Christmas songs on the radio and I heard Amy Grant’s version of “Breath of Heaven (Mary’s Song)” and found myself overwhelmed with emotion.
The [...]

Season’s Greetings! :-)

Posted in Uncategorized on December 5, 2007 | 1 Comment »

 
I found a fun thing online where you can design your own personalized greeting cards with faces you can customize to resemble your own family members.  You also get 10 free cards … the cost of shipping was more than I personally wanted to spend, though.  If it’d been free shipping too, I would’ve ordered them.  [...]

Latest update

Posted in Day-to-Day on December 3, 2007 | 30 Comments »

Although I promised myself to always be gut-wrenchingly honest on this blog, I have to admit that I’ve been downplaying some of my health-related issues (it’s probably partly denial on my own part, as well).
But because of some of those issues, I think some people who read this blog have a mistaken idea about my [...]
