A Window Doesn't Have to Have a Wall


Hi everyone,

With losing my mom, it has taken me a bit to get back to my blog.  It is funny how, even though our worlds may have events that make time stand still for us, for the rest of the world it continues to move on a lightning speed. One day our house has walls, and then it just seems as if the walls have crumbled away.


But the most important thing is to find you a little corner of the world, 

surround yourself with friends 


and realize that though drought will come, growth will come again.


 Just have the patience to realize, that all things happen in God's time and not ours.  Sitting in my little corner of the world though, and looking through the window that I love, I smile at the beauty that has grown despite the drought, knowing that all things do get better in time.

The Return of My Independance

Hi everyone,
I cannot even begin to express the joy that I am feeling today!!!  Last night I put on my new running shoes and was off for my first day of training!!!  I did better than I ever expected!!!  Then when I got home I started reading the book "The Grace to Race" that I bought yesterday.  I must tell you, if you have never heard or read about Sister Madonna Buder, you should really take a minute to read her story.  Her book is just AMAZING!!!  It fit in so perfectly with the whole fasting and physical fitness journey that I am on.  I cannot wait to tell my training buddies about the book tonight. :D


If reading this incredible book and accomplishing day 1 of my fitness goal was not enough for celebration, today for the first time since I fell on March 19th I was able to work in my yard, using both arms!!!  :D  For me, this Independance Day truely means I am gaining my independance once again!!!  As I worked on cleaning up my German Bathtub planter I came across the following lawn ornament.



What a beautiful sight, because after all, this is what my purpose behind doing the Daniel Fast has all been about.  Yes, a God Wink to so clearly affirm that I am on the right path!!


What a WONDERFUL day!!
