The Alphabet Meme


This cute little Meme is a great way to get to know fellow bloggers! I found this over at The Fruits of the Spirit and loved it! Here is my attempt to open up and share some things you may not know about me:






A is for age.
I will turn 40 this fall

B is for burger of choice.
Patty Melt - burger on rye bread smothered with onions and cheese

C is for what car you drive.
Mercury Grand Marquis

D is for Dog's name.
We don't have a dog - youngest son is begging for a puppy whom he will name Alex (if he gets one!)

E is for essential item you use every day.
Perfume - scent is very important to me

F is for favorite tv show at the moment.
I don't watch much tv mainly Fox News, but I love the show COPS!

G is for Favorite game.
A hand held digital charades type games called Catch Phrase - it is a blast

H is for Hometown.
I was born and lived in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida until the age of 12, but consider the small town I have lived in since as my hometown.

I is for instruments you play.

None. I took guitar lessons as a child, but never pursued them.


J is for favorite juice.

I like all kinds of exotic juice - passion fruit, white grape/peach etc.


K is for who you'd like to kiss.

My husband and three sons and my sweet nieces and nephews


L is for last restaurant you ate at.

Mike's Out To Lunch with Aunt Ro - it was a great time and great lunch!


M is for your favorite Muppet.

Kermit!


N is for number of piercings.

2 - one hole in each ear


O is for overnight hospital stays.

4 overnight stays - In 3rd grade I had eye surgery to correct a lazy eye, three births and one tubal pregnancy/miscarriage surgery


P is for people you were with today.

WOW - what a day to ask: I was with my family, my co-workers, 119 children I helped register for camp + parents and Aunt B for an evening walk.

Q is for what you do with your quiet time.

Early mornings I get some coffee, read the Bible and pray for the day and over my family.

R is for biggest regret.

I really don't have any regrets. Mistakes have been opportunities for learning and growing. If I could do some things differently, I would have gone to college right after high school and when my children were younger, would have spent more time with them instead of being so "busy".

S is for status.

Happily married for 19 years.

T is for time you woke up today.

I started this meme yesterday and woke up at 5:30 AM. Today ( I am finishing the meme) is my day off and I slept in - 8:00 AM. Average time I wake up is 6:30 AM.

U is for what you consider unique.

Every sunrise and sunset and the way that each person is created with unique gifts and abilities.

V is for vegetables you love.

Broccoli, green beans, corn - most all vegetables.

W is for worst habit.

Nagging my children.

X is for number of x-rays you've had.

None - only dental.

Y is for yummy food you ate today.

Fresh sweet cherries.

Z is for zodiac sign.

I'm a Virgo, but I don't believe in horoscopes, signs, etc. I'm created by God just like He designed me!

Wow! That was probably way too much information about me than you were expecting! I am a curious type person though and would love to read you answers. Let me know if you post this and thanks for reading!

Sometimes We Score, Sometimes We Block

Our family is in the midst of little league soccer season. My youngest son is playing and his enthusiasm is contagious. He is pretty good at the sport, but what makes it so great is that he loves it! He counts the days until the next game or practice. He loves his coach and teammates. He has moved up an age level this year and the players are working more like team, passing to each other and watching out for each other during play. During the last game, my son scored two goals, they were the only goals of the game. In today's game the team scored eight goals. My son came up afterwards to me and said, "I didn't score today, but I blocked". What a powerful truth those words can hold. In life, sometimes we score, sometimes we block. Sometimes we do great things, we excel, we achieve, we meet our goal - we score! There are also times we see the needs of others, sometimes they are sad or hurting, we block their hits. We look out for them so they can score. We

Relationships and Redemption

In every friendship or relationship, there is a common hope that they will grow and flourish. There is something inside of us that longs for a 'happy every after' story. We dream about it and work to make that happen. But in reality, relationships are a challenge. The bridging of values, lifestyles, interests and sacrificing for another are simply hard things to do! No matter how much we dream of the perfect fit, some relationships will not endure the stress.  When differences appear and tensions arise, prayer can change situations, attitudes and ourselves. For the Christian, we know God can transform, change, heal. We cannot change others, but prayer opens us the door for God to step in and answer. God desires transformation, but does not demand it. The gift of free will allows us to choose to say Yes or No to Him.  Romans 12:18 says, “If possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all.” Take notice of the first two words: “If possible …” This implies that some

A Blank Page - A Great Way to Fill It

A blank page - that is the first view of a new blog post. It has been a while since I have faced the blank page of my little blog! A blank page can bring a variety of emotions - emptiness, anxiety, pressure to perform or emotions such as inspiration, encouragement or simply bursting to share something. But there is always something fresh and exciting about the blank page of a New Year. Happy 2023! This is always a time in my life where inspiration and plans are formed and ready to be implemented for greater change. Aspirations may start strong, but alone do not make a difference. It takes consistency to create change. The changing or adding small habits is a key to great changes. A habit that has been beneficial in my life for many years is rising early. It began when the children were small and was the only pocket of time I had to myself. Through the years, mornings have become my favorite time of the day. Now that my husband and I are empty nesters, we go to bed early and rise early.
