Story of My Life: Latta Park with the Artists
This morning I awoke to rain with a prayer for sunshine on my lips because today was the day of the Winter Picnic. You might laugh reading that if you know the weather has been like recently (think upper 70s to low 80s) but when we planned the picnic it was still cold out. We [...]
Story of My Life: Delicous Light
There are days when I could just eat the light it looks so delicious. Today was one of those days. I tried to capture a taste of it for you but I’m not sure how successful I was. I’m not necessarily looking forward to the heat and humidity coming but the light, ah the light, [...]
Story of My Life: Brunch
Today I set my alarm, but for the latest time I could decently wake up, in hopes of catching up on some sleep. However, a shrill barking from the neighbor’s new dog woke me up quite early haha! So much for that! Gotta love neighbor’s dogs in the squashed suburbia where I live. I actually [...]
Story of My Life: Rockin’ the Uke
How do I describe my friend Sarah Buchanan? Well, there’s her amazing hair, her sense of humor, her awesome style, the fact that she plays multiple cool instruments (think ukelele and cello…yeah, she picked the cool ones!) aaaand she’s a dancer and all around super creative person. Do you want to be friends with her [...]
Story of My Life: Calendars and Gifts
Today I was trying to think of ways to help myself be more productive and consistent in setting goals and getting things done. I realized that it’s helpful for me to have a physical calendar set up that I can see and write on and look at. Somehow having it on paper makes it seem [...]
Story of My Life: Experimental Cooking
Since living on my own I’ve developed a habit of what I like to call, “Experimental Cooking.” That basically means that I’m willing to take chances and try things when cooking for just myself since I’m the only one that will suffer if it tastes gross haha! My experimental cooking turned out quite nicely this [...]
Story of My Life: Shadow Play
I was having fun today looking at the way the shadows and lines changed as the sun made it’s trek across the sky throughout the afternoon. There was a moment of bright golden light and beautiful contrast and I grabbed my camera and snapped the picture. The really exciting part of my day I forgot [...]
Story of My Life: Making New Friends
A couple of years ago two of my dear friends, Sara & Rachel, and I took a road trip to Kansas City, MO to the International House of Prayer for a weekend. While we were there we discovered that their friend Caleb, who Sarah spent time with in India, was in town and we ended [...]
Story of My Life: Something New!
Today I got to go and get a massage from an amazing lady in Charlotte which was good – she does more neuromuscular work (helping me recover from the recent auto accident I was in) so it’s more therapeutic than relaxing – and then I ran to get groceries and zipped home for a quick [...]
Story of My Life: Letting the Song Come Out
I’ve been spending a bit of time on my guitar this week, developing calluses and working on songwriting. At times it seems that the song inside is just aching to come out!! Music can be such a good way to process since it is so emotional by nature. I love being able to express myself [...]
