I’ve just completed a FREE Christmas Printable Planner, plus Christmas Cooking: Meal Ideas for Christmas Day Now, I do realize that this is super late, BUT, I wanted to complete it anyway because I will be updating this planner each year and adding more to it. So, the first year is essentially the hardest part of the labor and updating it will be much easier. *The Christmas planner ended up being almost 70 pages! LOL *SIDENOTE: There are just a few printables related to the “Santa” theme. Although we did not do the “Santa” thing at our house when my boys were little, some people do participate in this. So, I…

Easy Wedge Salad with Homemade Blue Cheese Dressing
I love a simple wedge salad. Although I do not eat this type of salad regularly, it does add a nice, special touch.

Home Organization Series – Organize the Master Bedroom – Day 15
Home Organization Series – Organize Your Master Bedroom – Day 15 The halfway point in our “30 days to an Organized Home” is your master bedroom. Clutter in this room is unacceptable… it will rob you of a peaceful rest. This is your sanctuary, the place you go to rest and rejuvenate yourself. It should not be in disarray.

With God There Are No Surprises
Sometimes I love surprises… That is, “when” they land in my own favor and advantage. For example, a short while back my hubby brought me home a white rose with baby’s breath.

They feel like life just threw you a huge curve ball and landed painfully in your gut. The unexpected can cause havoc and make you feel that life’s spinning out of control. We might look up in exasperation and a questioning look. “Did you see that God? Why did this happen? Why did you ‘allow’ this…
