I have never enjoyed math problems.  I could never give a good reason until now.  My mind wanders. (Thank you for calling this to my attention Greg. ) For instance, I read:
One of your friends is heading north for a holiday and the other friend is heading south. If their destinies are 1029 miles apart and one [...]

Okay, not really.  Since I have vowed to always tell the truth on this blog, no matter how ugly, I admit this is just not completely true.  I “mis-spoke”.  
I’m more of a park it, park it and read kind of gal.  Always have been.  But working up a sweat on the treadmill is essential for me to be healthy emotionally.  [...]

Today Zane was at home. We had a good day.  There was an indoor game of tag.  Computer games, Lego’s, homemade chocolate chip cookies and lots of happy noise in this house.  
Inevitably, Zack began to give me subtle and not so subtle hints that it was rest time.  I lay down by him on my bed while Zeke and Zane played the Wii.  [...]

This week I have had two amazing people come to me to confess their sins.  I felt honored that they would come and share with me.  But I am going to be honest, I was left feeling really sad. 
I was saddened not because of their sin.  They have bravely renounced it and are moving forward.  It was because they both came with the [...]

I hate snakes.  I try so hard not to, but I do.  Greg does not mind them. (Truly his only flaw..) Since we were married he has tried, mostly unsuccessfully, to instill in me rationality regarding snakes.  He tried education by taking me to Snake World on our honeymoon. (Okay, maybe he has two flaws..)  He truly [...]

This old house has stood for almost eighty years.  It has weathered heartache and happiness.  Five generations of Sanders have lived in this house.  Some for years, others for months.  This fifth generation calls this patch of real estate “home” on the weekends. 
When my husband first suggested renovating this house I was a bit hesitant.  [...]

“But as for me, the nearness of God is my good; I have made the LORD God my refuge, That I may tell of all your works.”  Psalm 73:28
The nearness of God is our good. 
The car we drive and the dog we walk are not our good.  Neither is the woman you married nor the man you divorced. [...]

This is one of my favorite songs. If I knew you were coming, I’d baked a cake. I sing it to my kids when we are in the kitchen.  Just like my Grandma Winifred did for me while we baked.
Tonight I made an organic chocolate cake.  And it was good.  I placed the sliced, fluted edge cake on [...]

My next door neighbor is a sad, quiet man.  We have lived next to him for almost ten years and spoken about that many words. Not that I haven’t tried.  Believe me. 
To define him as a recluse would be generous.  He never leaves his house except for a beer run.  He has one friend who occasionally drops by with [...]

A country girl went to visit her big city cousin.  She was sick of the country.  Too many cows and not enough young men, in her opinion.  She wanted to live.  Be suave.  Worldly.  Like her cousin. 
City living was as exciting as she had imagined.  Museums, parties and lots of cute men who found her absolutely exotic.  One man in [...]
