Saying Goodbye

 I'm tired of dying my hair.  I have been seriously considering letting it go gray.  Picture below is 2 months worth of no dye. I know, I know.  You say you don't notice any gray, right?


Ummm...  Take a closer look.


 I am sure I will have a weak moment and then it will be darker again...  and probably sooner than later.  I did pick up some 'sale Preference by LoReal' at Rite Aid on Sunday.  LOL.  


Another thing.  Today I had a 'revelation'.    Well, maybe it was a thought that just hit me.  Or maybe God was speaking to me in His ever-so-mysterious way.  Whatever the case, I made a decision.

You see, I have an addiction to sugar.  I used to think it was chocolate that I was addicted to, but I'm pretty sure it is sugar. 

I have been doing some research.  Coming from a family of diabetes and heart disease, I believe it would serve me well to be more careful about how much sugar goes into my body.  

Do you have any idea how much sugar I eat in a day!  A lot!  

So I am kicking my sugar addiction once and for all.  

Bye-Bye Sugar!

I want to be young and vibrant like my husband:


He reminds me more of his late father every day ;-)


We are really enjoying our summer...

Social Media

Lately I become lax in posting consistently on my blog.  It has become more work than pleasure.  I have been more active on Facebook and just check in now and again on my blog. 

Today I was reminded of how I need to be more faithful in my blogging and visiting with my blogger friends. 

Let me explain.

I love Social Media.  To name a few ~ I have a Facebook account, a Twitter account, My Space (which has been abandoned a while back but still exists), email of course, YouTube, and Blogger (still my favorite... but time consuming). 

I have met people from around the world.  I have shared in their trials and triumphs.  I have laughed and cried while reading friend's posts.  I have learned a lot and maybe brought a smile or two to another through my own posts.  I consider many of my blogging 'regulars' my friends.  Some are often on my list of people to pray for and they, too, pray for me. 

When I read this post from a dear, beautiful blogging friend today.... first, my heart dropped.  Then, I was blessed by a testimony that could only come from one who loves and is loved by God.  You see, I believe that when we love Him and honor Him that He will send His angels before us to watch over and protect us.   This Testimony will Touch Your Heart.

Love you, Jenni!
