I haven’t participated in Five Minute Friday in weeks – I haven’t even peeked into the Twitter party or the Facebook group page – we have been very, very busy moving. This morning I stalked Kate and saw that she said, “Done,” last night. NOW, this word I can relate to… Stick a fork in… [Read More]

Five Minute Friday: SECRET
Kate said, “SECRET.” I love this photograph – look at the little girl’s eyes! She seems to be delighting in her mom’s secret. I wonder what Mom is telling her. Don’t tell your brother but we are going to have a special girl’s day today. Shhh. You cannot say a word. It’s a secret between… [Read More]
Five Minute Friday: INCLUDE
Kate said, “Include.” This morning I woke up, got coffee, came upstairs to do my FMF post. When I saw the word “include” I thought to myself this may be hard. I went over to Unsplash because I get inspiration from the photos and I searched the word “alone.” Isn’t it odd that alone is the word I… [Read More]
Five Minute Friday: ADAPT
(I adored this photo from Unsplash – it was tagged “waving,” – you could’ve fooled me – these folks are having a praise the Lord fest.)

Five Minute Friday: RELEASE
Kate said, “Release.” I followed my normal FMF routine but this word didn’t have the power of resonating with me. I have released a lot of things over the years. An unfaithful husband Children, as they fledged the nest Control over circumstances I had no control over (anyway) Habits An addiction or two Fear A… [Read More]
Five Minute Friday: SETTLE
Kate was at her book launch party and was rather excited and beside herself but she finally said “SETTLE.” I do hope she settled down enough to sleep. Her new book? Can be found here. 00:00 Now y’all know my FMF routine because I wrote about it last week. So as I put my head… [Read More]
Five Minute Friday: ROUTINE
Kate said ROUTINE. 00:00 We all have one. Routine, that is. On Thursday night I do my nightly things, I get in bed with the heating pad on, I prop my three pillows just so. I scoot Sam down to the foot of the soft comforter. I grab my Kindle. I check final emails from… [Read More]
