Holding Your Breath
Two weeks before Christmas, My husband came home with out a job and having internal stomach issues. The health scare quickly vanished after doctor consultations and being on the phone with numerious nurses. The job loss however, stayed with us.

My Holiday Tips
Life can be a bit crazy during this season. It can be fun, festive and a much needed break from the grind of most of the year. It can also be chock full of family drama, to many party drinks, dry skin, late nights and $$ issues. So here are my thoughts on the matter: [...]

Happy Life
My pastor is doing a sermon series on being "Happy". I have gotten a lot out of the series. Maybe not what the pastor's initial focus for the series was, but I am being spoken too. On top of this, my husband just came back from a mini conference where the speaker talked on similar [...]
