by | Mar 7, 2013 | Books/Music, The Magnificent Journey

  I enjoy hero journeys where they are on a contemplative road of finding the love of God inside of them and not from the outside which consist of other people’s views and opinions of God. A relationship with God is a deeply personal and intimate relationship...

Back In Pink

by | Mar 4, 2013 | Auto-immune, The Magnificent Journey

  For the last 3 to 4 days I have been fighting a bout of insomnia, causing me not to want to do my rehab on Monday. I hate when this happens. This woman loves her sleep and she does not feel like herself without it. Despite feeling this way I went ahead and...

My Next Step: A Review

by | Mar 4, 2013 | Books/Music, The Magnificent Journey

  I have never heard of ReMax, what attracted me to “My Next Step” was that it was about a journey through illness and recovery. Something I know a lot about, since my first experience with being ill in 2008. I felt compelled to read and be inspired. I enjoy...

The Road

by | Mar 3, 2013 | Auto-immune, The Magnificent Journey

“I will point out the road that you should follow, I will be your teacher and watch over you. Don’t be stupid like horses and mules that must be led with ropes to make them obey.” Psalms 32:8-11 I am the most stubborn woman. It takes me a long time to make a decision...

Some Things Comes In Purple

by | Mar 2, 2013 | The Magnificent Journey

Last Tuesday I had my evaluation for pulmonary rehabilitation. It was a challenge, especially the six minute walk. I came home with some booklets and pamphlets of what I will be doing in the next eight weeks. One section of the booklet talked about exercise and what I...

Rare Disease Day

  Today is Rare Disease Day. There are over 7,000 rare diseases and I have one of them. All of the diseases are different, but the one thing that is the same is that it affects people no matter what your race or religion is. The effects of being ill often times...

Lofty Goals

Yep, another post about my new exercise program pulmonary rehab. I started reading the booklet this evening, after I took a two hour nap and took a soak in the bathtub to help my legs feel better. I am also having a flare-up this week. My wrist, middle finger on my...

Life Is Good!

Just a quick update on my getaway to my hometown of Longview, I am enjoying my time here. Karen is a riot. She makes me laugh and she is an amazing woman with a huge heart. Summer is a hard worker and a fabulous cook. Even though there have been some crazy moments not...

Take 2

by | Feb 20, 2013 | Books/Music, The Magnificent Journey

Take 2: Leeza Gibbons I have never been a big fan of Leeza Gibbons. I also thought she was the big Hollywood diva who looked perfect, had everything perfect, was that the reality? Come to find out it isn’t. I appreciate her candor in sharing her flaws with us. She...

I am utterly amazed with the huge blessings that miraculously show up on my doorstep literally. Slowly, as I am able to accumulate household items my home is becoming my home, a sanctuary that I can enjoy. This is something new to me as before when I owned my own...
