Divine Appointments
Today, I had a fairly relaxing day. I didn’t do a whole lot, and what I did do was more time-consuming than mind-consuming. By the time I had finished, I figured I would grab something to eat on the way home and then I could unwind when I got there. So I stopped at Chick-Fil-A,…

The Travel Diaries
What this post was going to be and what it has become are two very different things, but I know now all the procrastinating was for a reason. The above pictures are from my annual trip to South Bend, Indiana, with my best friends… what this post is now going to be about is none…

Sitting, Wishing, Waiting
It’s amazing what happens when I don’t blog for almost a whole week. It’s like a whole week of life happens. Last weekend, my friend Rachel sold her books at SantaCaliGon Days in Independence, Missouri, and I volunteered to be the main helper. It was one of the worst weekends to sell books weather-wise, but…
