This song overwhelms me with the reality of God’s grace in my life. I Need You To Love Me by Barlow Girl Why, why are You still here with me Didn’t You see what I’ve done? In my shame I want to run and hide myself But it’s here I see the truth I don’t [...]

Twilight~Twemptation
Ok, let me just say that I never thought I’d be writing a post about this book/movie. Never. I’ve avoided it. Haven’t read the book, haven’t seen the movie. Won’t. Can’t. You have no idea. Let me also say that this time last year, I would not have hesitated to become “involved’ with Twilight. Actually, [...]

If you want wisdom…
If you want wisdom…just ask. That’s what God said in James, chapter 1. Just ask. Oh, boy, do I want need wisdom. Difficult decisions abound here in my world, as I’m sure they do everywhere. But asking isn’t the end… I think what I used to do, is ask–then go on about my business. Flip [...]

When we did our No Spend Challenge in February, there was some talk about what we would do with the money that we didn’t spend. Would we save it all? Give it away? A little of both? We had a family meeting and discussed it. (well, Kevin and I discussed whilest the young ‘uns listened–or [...]

Oklahoma vacations
Last fall break we vacationed within state. We took one day and went to Norman–which is about 30 miles away, mostly just going to places we’d been before that we love.

Sorry department store, Jesus has my checkbook

I Think I Love You!
My cousin mentioned a Shaun Cassidy concert from eons ago, which got me thinkin’…strollin’ down memory lane. I did have his records, and esp. liked the album cover for Under Wraps (visually stimulating, huh…), the yellow t-shirt from the concert with his pic on it. But, crazy enough, yes…it’s crazy…I am still hooked on one [...]

Lest you think I’m perfect…
’cause I KNOW that’s what yall are thinkin’…ha. My sister made a comment on one of my posts about me and my blog being spiritual, and it got me thinking. Am I? What does that mean? I feel like there is a certain level of expectation that goes along with that. Maybe rightly so, I’m [...]

Goin’ to Beauty School
I tried to hold out during my No Spend Challenge in February, but I just HAD to get a haircut! I trimmed it myself a couple of times, but I was in need of professional help! Well, sort of professional…I LOVE getting my hairs cut at a hair school in OKC. Well, sort of [...]
