This afternoon I got a text from my sister. Here is our text conversation. She said: Have you read “The Time Keeper” by Mitch Albom? I highly recommend it. No. I’ll look into it.

It was such a fun evening. My friend and lead singer, Jo-Anne Petty, and band member Randy, both had amazing voices. Each sang a solo as well as taking turns leading the other songs. The other guys on the drums and . . . → Read More: Playing The God Card – On God When that little phrase “will you accept cookies” used to pop up on my computer, I’d laugh and picture a warm chocolate chip cookie popping out of the disk drive as soon as I clicked ok. Cookies were always a source of comfort for me and when I saw the above photo, it just . . . → Read More: Change Through Cookies “Stop wearing you wishbone where your backbone ought to be.” ~Elizabeth Gilbert Wow. That sure hits home if you’ve ever been called upon to do something hard that you just didn’t want to do. You wish it could be different, but you have to buck up and do what needs to be done.
