Whoa… It’s December?
Blink and you’ll miss it. That’s how November felt to me. Between the uptick in additional responsibilities with our HOA, the emotional weight of the US election outcomes, and having my parents visiting us for Thanksgiving, I feel like November was the fastest month so far this year! So welcome to December my friends. If…

Thank you
As I said last week, I’ve been writing here for on full year. Although I’ve taken breaks here and there, I am so thrilled to have reached this milestone! For those of you I know and speak to regularly, thank you for all of your encouragement. I wouldn’t still be doing this without you. To…

Both…And
The last week has been a roller coaster of emotions for most of us. I realize I’m coming to you a day late. I could say that it is because Monday was a holiday. But that would be a lie. My best friend from college came to visit over the weekend. It was a great…

Happy November
I’m sitting here thinking. How? How can it be November already? The end of October flew by. I did not get as much rest and recovery as I wanted, but taking blogging off my plate did allow me to better handle the craziness that came my way. If you are reading this on release day,…

Happy Fall
Hello all, I’d probably struggle to choose a favorite season, but the longer I live in Kansas the more I’ve grown to love fall. In Kansas, fall is when the oppressive heat and humidity of summer disappear. Chiggers no longer threaten me for daring to step on the lawn. For me, that makes being outdoors…

Finding Hope
Happy Wednesday my readers, I’m sorry that I was not around to greet you on Monday. I had two-fold reasons. First, I was shifted into the Treasurer position on our HOA board in August and have felt like I’ve been playing catch up ever since. Over the last two weeks, I’ve been spending most of…

Climate and Kids
These days, it doesn’t take much to see climate change in the news. Amplified by climate change induced warming in the Gulf of Mexico, Hurricane Helene was one of the largest hurricanes in history. It’s immense size meant it shrank in size slowly and its fast speed meant it penetrated deeper into the USA than…

Love God & Your Neighbor
These are the penultimate commandments for Christians. There are so many references throughout scripture that tell us to love our neighbor. A few to check out: Leviticus 19:18, Mark 12:31-33, Romans 13:8-10. If you’ve been around the sun a more than a few times, you know that living it out poses its own sort of…

Leave No Trace
I want to start with stating that I’m struggling to write about faith and creation care right now because of the craziness occurring in the USA political scene. Between the lies and violence and the way faith is being coopted for political gain, I’m struggling. It hurts my heart to see Christians standing with and…

Energy Independence
Point of view. Perspective. Even how something is worded. It all matters. For instance, with my son, automatic sprinkler systems are the coolest thing in the world to point out. For me, they are a needed safety system. He thinks its fine to sit in a dirty diaper, but I know better. Clean bottoms are…
