DON'T DRINK THE WATER

I've been in a cleaning/rearranging/organizing frenzy




For ten years this wee closet right inside the door we use most has been a catchall! 

You know the kind...open at your own risk! 

Ugly!  Handy!  But REALLY ugly!!




Amazing what a coat or white paint, shelves, tap lights and fun containers can do to lift a woman's spirit--and turn UGLY into USEFUL.




Pockets on inside of the door add space for mixes and fun little surprises!  

HOWEVER--I must add this disclaimer:

In times past, this sort of activity was the first sign of a new pregnancy.

I'm 80

You might not want to drink our water!!

A Way of Seeing


It stormed last night.

A real, literal storm with thunder, lightning, wind, rain…the works!

But the sun still came up and promises to shine again. As I walked into my office this stained-glass hanging was a great visual reminder that no matter the storms that surround me, the ever-changing unrest, hate and chaos that seems to rule the news of the day 

I have ONE who never changes.

ONE who is still on the throne

ONE who is not at all surprised by what is happening around me.

I CAN and WILL withstand the storms because of the promise each new morning brings.
