When I started thinking about topics to include in this month of writing church, of course, came to mind. Since I am actively involved in my church, and went to church where the largest “S I N G L E S” program is in Houston for 11 years, I get asked about meeting people at…

“You’re too picky.”  Oh, the times I have been told this.  And, maybe you have been told this too. Probably I’ve made a snarky remark back a few times, but most of the time I don’t argue it. If someone thinks I’m “too picky” then they’ve formed an opinion and doesn’t really matter what I…

There’s an old Jessica Simpson song, “With You” that talks about being real me; Levi’s, t-shirt, hair down that I can relate to. I love come-as-you are casual breakfast out on the weekends and recently laughing with some friends because the difference for me between breakfast and brunch is makeup.

Just go for the free meal!  I can’t even begin to count how many times I’ve heard that little phrase; either directly to me or in conversations in regards to going on dates with those you have no intentions of beyond a free meal. I love the table, conversation at the table, lingering at the…

(Continuing my Monday Musings during October’s #write31days) …a few thoughts, a little scattered… Some days I have so many words and some days it’s hard to actually put words to all of my thoughts that would make sense to anyone else. This weekend was one of those times. I’ve mentioned on the regular about my…

This year I turned 40 and it seemed leading up to the day I kept seeing the number popping up in various places. I didn’t post this on my actual birthday in August, but feel it gives some story and insight to this month of S I N G L E. Never did I hesitate…

#write31days | 2016: S I N G L E

Here we are again, the calendar has flipped to October 1st. I know I’m getting older because I keep thinking how quickly the time is passing.  Just this week at work someone said “we’ll look at that in October” which was met with a quick reply “this weekend is October“. But, I digress. October means…

Monday Musings ~ Stream of Consciousness

…a few thoughts, a little scattered… Lately in talking with or texting with my friends I’ve caught myself saying on more than one occasion, “welcome to my stream of consciousness“.  It just seems like there’s lots going on and it’s all over the place, from trivial or mundane to significant.  But, isn’t that life…  Here’s…
