Once again I am posting the same post to all my blogs…

It is 6:51 p.m. and we are back from Waco. It has been an exhausting day, physically, emotionally, and spiritually but we feel that we have had great favor and many answers to prayer. (more…)

Tomorrow is Our Big Day

29 September 2008

timer

Marc adn I are preparing for his disability hearing in Waco tomorrow.

This is a very stressful time for us, as we put together his medical records for the last 26 years and letters from his doctors, etc. We are both nervous, although trusting God, because if they turn us down again it will be a financial hardship. (more…)

Over the past few days I have realized (once again) that I will never divorce Marc, no matter what he does.

I Can Feel Your Heart Beat….

23 September 2008

coffee grinder

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Wasn’t that an old Partidge Family song?

Check this out. This coffee grinder grinds to the best of your heart…which supposedly changes the flavor of the coffee from grind to grind.

 

The grinder is very cool looking. I love coffee and everything but I am not sure I am ready to cuddle with the grinder in the morning…

The company says that in order to use it you must cuddle with it..and that creates an emotional bond. How cool…I can be co-dependant on my coffee grinder…

I find the commercial hysterically funny….totally cannot believe that this is NOT a Saturday Night Live skit…

On the other hand, the guy in the commercial is easy on the eyes.

Rituals give us a sense of comfort, luxury, and  creativity in our lives (more…)
