As I watch tragedy after tragedy unfold before my eyes, I want to scream. It feels unfair. It feels wrong. It feels so incredibly unjust. Our president has made decisions that have caused, are causing, and will continue to cause so much pain and suffering. It feels like such a helpless thing to watch. IContinueContinue reading “A “Red Wave” Isn’t What We Need”

Afghanistan Tragedy: This Average American’s Point of View
I have no military experience, no political expertise, and though I’ve read many articles and opinions, my research is still quite limited. I won’t pretend to understand half of what’s going on right now in Afghanistan or the White House, for that matter. I’m not saying we shouldn’t have ultimately withdrawn from Afghanistan. I’m gladContinueContinue reading “Afghanistan Tragedy: This Average American’s Point of View”
MN to NC: Wrong Turns, Basement Floods, and Monster Spiders

MN to NC: Reno Update!!!
OK, y’all! So, I know it’s been a minute since I gave an update. It becomes a wee bit of a problem when you move into your house but can’t get internet to it for a couple weeks.

White Guilt And The Gospel
Ok, yeah… I gotta step out there and hit on a few social/political issues every now and then. I haven’t touched a whole lot on racism/CRT/white privilege. I’m a wee bit late to this game, but it’s such a complex topic and I don’t want to speak out of turn or in ignorance. And I’mContinueContinue reading “White Guilt And The Gospel”

MN to NC: My “Self-Care” Dilemma
Y’all, it’s been a long three months. Let me shoot straight with you for a moment. I’m tired. I’m really, really tired. Right now I feel defined by fatigue, exhaustion, impatience and irritability. I’m easily angered, I’m lacking gumption, and I’m tired of making decisions. I’m sick of packing, unpacking, packing, waiting, getting excited, gettingContinueContinue reading “MN to NC: My “Self-Care” Dilemma”
MN to NC: Heart Attacks And Lots Of Laughs
Ok, so God knew all this was coming, right? God knew this life transition was coming my way and he knew that sometimes I’d feel like crying in the midst of it all.

So… He gave me three rambunctious, hilarious, accident prone, beautiful littleContinueContinue reading “MN to NC: Heart Attacks And Lots Of Laughs”
MN to NC: My Birthday Surprise!
So, as I told you all before, landing a house in this area of the country is a chore. The market is crazy everywhere but it would seem this part of the country is having an influx of new residents and our area here is particularly popular. Anything that comes to market worth having isContinueContinue reading “MN to NC: My Birthday Surprise!”
