More About Me...

I am a wife, mother, follower of Jesus and friend. I live life by faith and understand that God's plans for me are always better than any plans I can have for myself. I don't consider myself a writer, but I love to write. I blog about my experiences, my passions, my thoughts and my failures. It all matters to me, but only some of it may matter to you. Enjoy.

My tagline is significant to me because I truly believe that "the rest is still unwritten" - I've learned to simply live each day with gratitude and happiness. You really, honestly don't ever know what tomorrow holds. So, just enjoy the journey.

$7 or $70: which do you want?

One of the things that I’ve learned in life is that the lessons that I’ve learned the hard way are the ones that I’ve truly learned. Over and over, I’ve found it to be true that when I’ve made a wrong choice, it ultimately causes me pain. This is the key reason why we become [...]
