I ended yesterday’s post with a quote about candles. This morning I got an email with the same quote. So why not go down that road today? I realized that taking every meme I wanted to post would use up a LOT of time and space, so I will just list the quotations that struck … More More about candles
Today is the kind of day where there are conflicting stories, conflicting goals, and questions I have no answers to. These kinds of days used to scare me, but now I realize this is a temporary state of mind and it will all work itself out. We stopped at our new house-to-be yesterday, and it … More Sorting My Brain
Time seems to go faster these days; the weeks and years fly by. Mr. Porter and I are buying another house. Yes, after all the hard work of preparing the old house for sale, we are going to buy our “down-sized” home. I can’t give away too many details yet, as we are still shuffling … More Thursday Thoughts
If you are a Christian with children, I strongly urge you to buy this book. There is an important portion of scripture that many people are not familiar with: Avoid Wicked Customs 9 “When you come into the land which the Lord your God is giving you, you shall not learn to follow the abominations of … More Book: A closer Look at Pokemon
Well happy Monday, All. So many things going on, I’m going to start in the middle again. You know I like to do that. 🙂 Yesterday I met up with some friends from high school days. It’s amazing that even though we are 50-something years old, when we get together, it’s like we are teenagers … More Old friends, cars, and Flash
We came home last night to find it was impossible to attach our phones to our network. It had been a long drive home, so we just figured we would go to bed and fix it in the morning. I called the Cable company (yes, don’t you just love the cable company…) and the customer … More Netgear is not the same as Netflix.

Robbery #1. The intermittent windshield wiper was patented in December 1964. The man who created this invention presented it to the “Big Three” auto companies, General Motors, Ford and Chrysler.

The law of faith. Romans 3:27 We are not under the Law but under Grace. That doesn’t mean that there are no laws.

I bought a clock today. This one will be easily seen from the living room, late at night, when I’m binge-watching TV and I don’t know what time it is, so I keep watching, and then go to bed too late, because for a night person there is no such time as too late, only … More I only have 10 minutes
Day People and Night People are often compared and contrasted, and usually married to their opposite. Mr. Porter and I are a Day/Night team. But we are not equal: Bailey is on his side too. We are also a Summer (me) vs. a Non-Summer (him), or maybe we could call it a Winter Person. Bailey … More Summer vs. Non-Summer People (and dogs)
We know God wants us to pray, we know He wants to answer our prayers, but we don’t always get the answer we hoped for. This book takes us “behind the scenes” at what is happening in the spirit realm when we pray. The author describes the prayer realm as a courtroom, where evidence is … More Book Review: Operating in the Courts of Heaven by Robert Henderson
Mr. Porter had an interview on Monday, and they liked him so much that they called him back for a second interview later in the week. So while he is studying the material that he will be asked about, he has asked me to find other questions, you know the HR stuff. I have a … More Have you heard any good jokes, er, interview questions lately?
We don’t like to “get our hopes up” about things because when they don’t come through the way we want, it’s painful. But after all these years on the planet, and studying the “hindsight is 20/20” principle, I’ve finally figured out a few things, and I would like to share them with you. You may … More How to handle disappointment
Hello dear readers. I have so much on my mind today, but so many things that I can’t disclose to you at this time. So although I feel like writing, maybe I should be on my “non-online” computer instead of this one; but here I am. One line Wednesday, which is really spelled #1linewed is … More One Line Wednesday
From the Archives: My 18-year-old son recently left home to attend college. I was more concerned about what he needed than he was. I was constantly asking him, “Do you need towels, sheets, or soap? Do you have enough toothpaste?” He would roll his eyes at me. I knew I had to let him go. … More When my son left for college: a mom’s life lesson.
How about the guy at the gym that does one set on the machine, doesn’t wipe it off while it drips of his sweat, then paces back and forth through the other machines, with headphones on, singing intermittently and scaring the crap out of each time he starts to sing, and then goes back to … More Things that bug me, aka First World Problems.

When telling a story, it’s best to start at the beginning, but if you can’t find the beginning just start in the middle. There’s never a dull moment in the Porter household. Just ask Bailey: He’s not bored; he’s exhausted. It’s a lot of work shedding fur all over the rug. He wore himself out. … More Let’s start in the middle
I’m sorry about this morning’s lack of youtube video. I guess it’s been a while since I included a video, and the link did not come through. So here, I will try it again. Click below: Let the Church Rise by Jeoffrey Benward I hope it works this time!!
Let us rise and move the gates of hell.
I stopped at the gas station on the way home. I pulled up to the pump, and inserted my credit card. No. Your credit card is no good here. What?! I looked at the card and sure enough it was expired. We are in MAY now, not APRIL. I fished through my purse and came … More Thank God my credit card was declined.
