This is the basin at Montour falls, NY. My Grammie and Pa used to go here and swim. I love going here to visit. The people that own the property are so nice and very willing to let us go down and reminisce!

Wow! October is gone this year. I have to admit, there were times that seemed to drag on and others that were gone in the blink of an eye. The fall arrived with bursts of color and internally my colors seemed to fade. My most recent pregnancy test had come back negative, my in laws were due in, and my husband was preparing to head out to Afghanistan for his fourth deployment, so we had already started the process of getting into "deployment mode." Now, that means we do not just prepare physically. Most of the "preparation" is mental. Not only does all the equipment need to be inventoried and packed; but we both together have to prepare for the separation physically that we are about to face. There is a definite emotional and mental process that military husbands and wives go through. We get into a mode of: we need to make sure all of the important documents and bills are taken care of, what if there's an emergency, why does it have to be a year, and the ultimat...

Wow, it's been a while since I've taken the time to sit and write what God is doing in my life and how He has been growing me through this year. I know that there have been previous posts about some issues happening this year; but there is so much more that is "in between the lines." I have taken some time; because when it comes to listening to God, lets' face it, we don't always stop talking and listen, to try and be in tune to what He is speaking to us. I have several things mingling around in my mind. This year has seemed to be a roller coaster of illness for myself and my husband. When I stop and think about it, it's been year that we have been dealing with health issues that have required surgeries, hospitalizations, more medicine, CT scans, MRI's, ultrasounds, IV's, blood draws, therapy, and oh so much more. There have been times when I have felt that I am fighting a losing battle. The good news is though, we aren't losing this ba...

Good evening! It's been too long since I have been on here to write something! I have been so busy that I have neglected sitting and listening to what God is telling me. I am getting back to that now and have some things on my heart. Lately I have been feeling sluggish, exhausted, and not motivated at all. Yesterday I was chatting online with a friend and we got to talking about doing something to better ourselves. I personally need and want to lose weight. I have done it before and felt so great seeing and feeling how my body changed. Now granted it wasn't a huge loss, but still a loss. I keep thinking about the triathlon I did two years ago. I was probably in the best shape mentally and physically that I have been in a very long time. I was able to swim longer than I had been able to, lift weights that before seemed to weigh me down, ride a bike for 7 miles, and actually run! It was an amazing feeling. Now why, you ask, would someone ever want to let that go? Laziness..pure a...
