Sweet Lifers, I have been thinking a lot about what my thesis will be as I go into the doctoral program this fall and during this Lenten season I am more aware of the importance of prayer. For so many praying is a difficult “task” seen as obligatory and many only do it over...
Sweet Lifers, When we walk in love as Christ Jesus has loved us so many amazing things happen. We shine the Light of the Spirit which is recognizable and a strengthening in faith amongst the flock and a glimpse of hope to those with fragile faiths. As we rejoice in the PROMISE proclaimed by our...

Hey my Sweet Lifers! What a fun start to a new year I have had. I have realized many things about myself over these years but one thing I had not counted on was being attributed to being useful. “Useful” used loosely and mainly referencing to being the one that gets called to “fix”...
Hey my Sweet Lifers! Well I spent most of the tail end of my summer and into fall stomping up and down the roads all along 30A in Florida. There are so many parks and unspoiled sea lines it’s breath taking. A peaceful and preserved place for every creature great and small to live...
Hey my Sweet Lifers! Oh I just love watching HGTV and my mother in law did too. Both of us have always had a knack and passion for decorating and for me, a sincere appreciation for old houses. I got the chance to spend some time in Laurel Mississippi as B and I have...
Hey my Sweet Lifers! I hope all of ya’ll are having a wonderful start to summer. I have been enjoying mine most thoroughly. I’ve been learning a lot about what seeds to sow and when to do so in the flower garden and watching things sprout up and grow has been quite satisfying. The...
Hey my Sweet Lifers! Well, it’s hard to believe but the studio is celebrating it’s 25th year this month! Kinda crazy right?! I thought so too, but when I look back on everything we have captured it all started to seem very real. The years have flown by and my littles are either all...
Hey my Sweet Lifers! First of this year I was scrolling my social feed and a painting struck my eye. It was done by an artist who I have admired and am friends with and something about it spoke immediately to me. Something that can be interpreted as a feeling that it must be...
Hey my Sweet Lifers! I was recently having a conversation with one of my dear friends and she asked me to go to a party. Well she “sort of” asked actually. Our conversation went like this. My friend started off by stating that she wanted to have a party and she wanted me to...
Hey my Sweet Lifers! If you ever thought you were the one to choose your fur babies let me just tell you they choose you. Recently, I went out to bring in my girls, Sasha and Angela for the night; and each time I called their names I heard a loud “meeeeeow!” in response...
Hey my Sweet Lifers! On a rather brisk day in February back in 1976 I received a bike for my birthday. I remember wondering as I wobbled on the seat and with hands shaking held on tight to the handlebars, if I would ever not be afraid of getting up on that contraption! A...
Hey my Sweet Lifers! I’m guessing that most of you celebrated the holidays and got to spend time with those you love; hope so anyway! I have been asking my little’s coming in for their visits what their best gift ever was that they got for Christmas and I have been getting a lot...
Hey my Sweet Lifers! During a roadtrip back from North Carolina it struck me as we were wandering around in the Blue Ridge Parkway and through various states, there’s a lot of things you miss when you fly. Things that you should stumble upon and allow yourself some time to enjoy…others that make you...
Hey my Sweet Lifers! I must say it does feel a bit strange finding oneself playing bridge in the middle of an afternoon on a weekday. Most people give me a look when I say I am busy on this particular day and then tell them why. They then proceed to say things that...
Hey my Sweet Lifers! There’s a running joke between me and my oldest and best friend about when to buy things. Not the items that everybody needs eventually like furniture, appliances and houses, but the personal stuff that makes life a little sweeter. You know… the pocket books, and jewelry, clothes and as of...
Hey my Sweet Lifers! I hope that somewhere tucked in a bookcase or perhaps hanging on your wall there’s a piece of art that has been created either by you, a dear friend or by someone in your family. As all of you know, both my parents...
Hey my Sweet Lifer’s! Today is a day for all of us Star Wars™ fans to celebrate not only the actual movies that have captured our hearts and entertained millions over the years but to fully embrace what the series really means. It is about good vs. bad… right vs.wrong… evil not winning over...
“Living the Sweet Life” My Marvelous Monstera June 2022 Hey my Sweet Lifers! Everyone should have a house plant, and I believe that like choosing a pet, the decisions about which one or...
Hey my sweet lifers! If you’ve been paying any attention to my feeds, blogs or channel episodes you might have noticed a shift in both my focus but also my purpose. What is one of the most beautiful aspects of being a human being is our ability to manifest change. It is in fact...
