Be Authentic Review

Monday, January 25th, 2010

Confused Cactus

Monday, December 28th, 2009

                                    Once again I decided to stick my cactus plant outdoors.  I figured God could do a better job with it than I was.  It was looking pitiful a couple months ago when I put it out.  I went through this last year.  That’s when I figured out that my plant had a desire to […]

Another Bow By Obama

Monday, November 16th, 2009

Obama’s low bow to the Japanese emperor Saturday is another low blow to the American people.  You would think after his bow to the King of Saudi, he might have learned just how inappropriate that is.   This is the first time in the history of the United States that our president has shown subservience to […]

Happy Birthday, Anne Marie

Monday, September 7th, 2009

Happy Birthday to my Labor Day baby!  My daughter was a Labor Day baby.  Of course, she’s no longer a baby.  She’s a beautiful young woman.  But the memories of that much awaited daughter are still strong.  Her birth wasn’t expected for another two weeks or more.  Her older brother was two weeks late, so […]
