I give up. I’m conceding defeat. After months of waging war against my laundry, I am finally ready to throw in the towel. Literally. I feel like the dirty clothes in this house dominate my life. They stack up in piles. They beg to be washed. In fact, they stink. I used to have somewhat…
Last year when we were out trick or treating, one of the parents gave a challenge that the adults should get dressed up too this year. I have had it in the back of my head the past few weeks, but I really couldn’t come up with any good ideas for a costume. A few…
Today is 010111. The date alone makes me want to make a resolution. I was thinking about my proposed resolution up until the final minutes of 2010. I could hear the fireworks exploding in the distance, and my mind was still filled with thoughts of blogging every day in 2011. The idea alone was making…
A friend I haven’t talked to in a while sent me an e-mail recently. “You are so busy,” she said. I asked another friend how she had been doing lately, and she responded with one word: “Busy.” It’s no secret that we are a generation that seems busier than ever before. And yet, I cringe…

This question is for the both of you… as in ALL of my blog readers. I really need to know what you think. A friend the other day said she was debating between asking her husband for one of these two Christmas gifts: 1. a Keurig coffee maker or 2. a pair of Ugg boots….
Last night at my small group, we had to answer an ice breaker question: “If you were stranded on a deserted island, what is the one thing you would take with you?” The answer couldn’t be a Bible or another person. I thought the question was kind of silly at first. My brain was really…
I’ve had a little is-sue the past week or so. I have been coughing. And coughing. And coughing. I keep thinking it’s going to get better. But it doesn’t. Actually, I usually feel pretty good during the day. Except for the fact that I’m so tired from coughing the entire night. I have found one…
