Just Another Manic Monday🎶….ohoooohhhh I wish it was Sundaaaay🎵🎶🎵🎶 You know the song and I’m sure you have sung it on those Mondays that weren’t going your way.

Don’t Worry Be Happy They sing and they rant Really?! That’s not possible I sure can’t! Yea, my mom told me too. It doesn’t do any good But around every corner, there’s something crazy hard that’s new. I get this down and Yes! I’m happy! Then I look up and suddenly sappy. Someone’s upset Now […]

I want to spend the rest of my life making you happy…. When my husband (long before the marriage) uttered those well-meaning words he had no idea what he was getting himself into. Things are very different in the dreamy world of starry eyed young love, when your biggest dilemma is which movie to see, […]

It’s not happy people that are thankful but thankful people that are happy! I’m thanking God, who makes things right. I’m singing the fame of heaven-high GOD. (Psalm 7:17 MSG) Have you ever messed something up really bad? Yea, me too. Here at the end of the year, it’s a good time to be thankful […]
