Orlando, Florida was a blast! The only set back was that we didn't have enough time to spend there. A friend of mine and her family were planning a trip to FL. My friend wanted me to meet her cousin who was going to be meeting them there in Florida. So she asked me if I wanted to go, I said yeah, and so at 11 PM Sunday night, I began packing for Florida. We left Monday morning at 6:30 AM! We stayed at the Nickelodeon Hotel, which was actually tons of fun even for us older folks. We went to Epcot, Downtown Disney, and did a little shopping also. ***************** The whole church split thing is going full force. It's gotten really ugly actually. Several people have begun posting comments anonymously on my blog and other friends blogs with rude comments. I feel really bad for these people. I know they are frustrated and angry and haven't learned how to channel those feelings in a positive way. So if you feel the need to call me names or criticize my actions or those of my fri...
This is why I’m upset – Not because Trump won. He had a 50/50 chance. I would have been disappointed with Hilary Clinton too. Why I’m mad is because people who claim to be Christ followers, Christians, honestly believe that the President-elect is a fellow believer. I’m shocked. I’m stunned. Most importantly, I’m saddened. If you think that he was the “lesser of two evils”, I can understand. If you thought that maybe his erratic policy would shake things up, I can understand that too.

This man, our President-elect, has multiple marriages, has on numerous occasions spoke derogatorily against other races and gender, and has performed numerous shady, corrupt busin...
There is a biological clock that ticks. Sometimes it's so faint, I don't even hear it. Other times, its tick-tock is more like a sonic boom in my ears, reminding me that my "best years" are quickly slipping by. There have been times where I thought the clock's ticking was meaningless because my life was headed in the right direction. The good guy in my life would lead to a proposal, house, family...to taking my rightful place in society. Or, I was applying for jobs in big cities where I could live the single life seen in the movies...just fun and friends! With the guys never seeming to pan out, I figured it was time to spread my wings and fly. To become Miss Independent, far away from the small country life I have lived for so long. And many, many people encouraged it. There is no future here in Greenville, no real single friends my age, no possibilities for someone like me. Then there were those that questioned, what are you going to ...
