Closer To Free

Thanks for all of the Anniversary wishes – we had a great time after a bit of a rocky start! Jess was sick, so we didn’t get to take the kids up to my parents until Sat. morning. Still, we got to enjoy a few nice meals out & we went out to see ‘The [...]

Dwight & I are celebrating our 10 year Anniversary today! I am soooo thankful to have such a wonderful man in my life. Dwight never gave up on me, even when i gave him every reason to. HE is a shining example of True Love.
So Dwight “surprised” me today by taking the day off of [...]

I was in a good mood this morning – a REALLY good mood, for a change. Everything seemed right with the world. Because of my good mood, I was smiling & cheerful at church. I gave out hugs to my friends. At one point one of my friends said “You’re in a really good mood!” [...]

Something a little more light-hearted today!
Today I woke up extra early after a bad night of little sleep. Dwight & I were both tossing & turning. Anyway, he’s feeling better (YAY!) so he got up to meet with a friend before work today & I got up to rub his lotion on his back after [...]

Before I begin, let me give you a quick update on Dwight’s condition: he’s gone from bad to worse! He’s had this condition for 9 days now & the spots are starting to connect now, there are so many of them! he’s miserable & is having a VERY hard time sleeping. I am, however, very [...]

Please pray for my husband, Dwight. He developed a rash on Saturday night that has gotten progressively worse every day since. He has been to 2 doctors & has finally been diagnosed with Pityriasis Rosea. Google it or read the Book of [...]

I am a “fast-walker”.  For as long as I can remember, all of my friends were taller than me. It would take me about 3 steps to equal just one of theirs. So at a very early age, I began to walk fast just to keep up.  Then I joined the track team & I [...]

***Will I receive if I don’t ask?
***Will I find if I don’t seek?
***Will the door be opened if I don’t knock?
Lord, let Your Holy Spirit give me the wisdom & discernment to make good choices in my life. Help me to be obedient to Your Will. Help me to be a good & faithful wife [...]

***I passed my test!!!! I also had a phone interview with “the company” yesterday and I was told that I was “qualified & highly recommended”. That made me feel REALLY good! The only bad part is that the area that I applied for is in a “hiring pause” because they hire in chunks [...]

****Jessica was a holdout ALL DAY yesterday! I finally made her take her medicine in the middle of the night by threatening to force it down her throat!
****Girl’s Night Out was a blast (we had 9 ladies total), but it was also sad because we had to say goodbye to one of our friends whose [...]
