Yesterday was a great day. I woke up early enough to get in a 2 mile run at the gym. The snow was deep but I was determined to make the drive and get my workout on. Instead of the treadmill, lately I’ve been running on the indoor track located on the 3rd floor of… Continue reading In Good Company

Online Dating, (The Verdict is In) & A Marriage Proposal
So, I cancelled my membership today for the online dating site I joined last month. It’s been almost 30 days and nothing. No emails, no instant messages, nothing. Now, I did get one “smile” from a guy…that’s the site’s ways of someone kinda testing the waters and seeing if you’re interested. But I will just… Continue reading Online Dating, (The Verdict is In) & A Marriage Proposal
Let It Snow!
Today it snowed. I can’t remember the last time it waited this long to snow in Cleveland. Last winter was definitely a mild one and I don’t think anyone expected to have another mild one back to back, but hey, if God wants to prove us wrong, let Him! Now, normally I dread seeing the white stuff. To me,… Continue reading Let It Snow!
A Conflict of Sorts
She’s like a sister to me. Her brother is like a brother to me. Her family is like family to me. When we have conflict it’s like a huge space in my life that can’t be filled. When we were younger we had full out arguments. Now, seasoned with some maturity, we have conflict. It’s… Continue reading A Conflict of Sorts
True Love
But soft, what light through yonder window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the sun. Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon, Who is already sick and pale with grief That thou, her maid, art far more fair than she. . . . The brightness of her cheek would shame those stars… Continue reading True Love
God is With Me

The girl was in my Auditing class in grad school. She was a 3-2 student, meaning she received… Continue reading God is With Me
When the Going Get’s Tough…
I’ve never quit anything in my life. Ever. And I know you’re not supposed to say “never” or “always” because there are very few absolutes in this life. But I can say pretty confidently that this statement is true for me,. Even still, today was a challenge to hold on to this conviction. My freshman year of… Continue reading When the Going Get’s Tough…
Daddy’s Girl
Like millions of Americans, I grew up without a dad. It’s a complex story but I only saw my dad once as a child. I remember him burying me and my half sis in the sand on the beach, the sand still in our bathing suits as we sat in the backseat of the car,… Continue reading Daddy’s Girl
Bonhoeffer
I’ve been reading Dietrich Bonhoeffer’s biography written by Eric Metaxas. Bonhoeffer. Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy. It’s been very enjoyable thus far. I’m only a little more than a tenth of the way in (it’s a 600+ page book so I’m taking my time) but I find myself falling in love with the journey of Bonhoeffer. … Continue reading Bonhoeffer
