I already had a Good Friday post, so I’m posting this one a week late. Last Friday we had a really Good Friday. Actually, it was a GREAT Friday, but the calendar specifically says, “Good Friday†so I guess I’m going to have to go with that. Several years ago, when Matt was working for… Continue reading A Really Good Friday

Threads of Gratitude: A no-brainer edition
Hmmm…lemme see…what am I grateful for this week? Oh, you mean BESIDES the fact that my husband no longer has CANCER? That one’s hard to top, for sure. I have cried a lot of happy tears this week, humbled and awed by God’s mercy in choosing to heal Matt’s body. But there is so much… Continue reading Threads of Gratitude: A no-brainer edition
AI Predictions: From 8 to 7
Music of the cinema…with Quentin Tarantino as celebrity “coach.” Yeah, I’ve worked it over in my mind and those two comments just don’t seem to mesh in my book. I guess that’s why I’m not sitting in Kara DioGuardi’s seat. As usual, there were the top performers who will have no trouble making it to… Continue reading AI Predictions: From 8 to 7
The Rest of the Story
Well, it’s all over Facebook, and it’s on CaringBridge, so it might as well be here too. We received the news we have been hoping and praying for ever since that fateful day last September. Matt’s scan came back completely clear. The doctor informed us there is “no trace of cancer” in Matt’s body. It’s… Continue reading The Rest of the Story
South Beach Update
This makes me feel SO much better. It’s good to know fat can happen to HER, too. For once in my life, I can feel satisfied knowing I’m thinner and prettier – and far more active – than Barbie. Now, where’s MY townhouse and my spiffy sports car?
Cardboard Testimonies
This is a placeholder for what I hope will soon be a video of the cardboard testimonies shared this morning.
Egg-sellent!
It’s hard to believe it’s been four years. Four years since our very first Sloan Creek Easter Egg Hunt where we had more non-SCE residents in attendance than residents. Four years since hiding a few dozen eggs in our playroom and having neighbors over for pizza. Four years since we ran around on Sunday afternoon… Continue reading Egg-sellent!
What’s so “good” about Good Friday?
I’ve been a Christian a long time. I made the decision to accept God’s gift of salvation when I was five years old. I was raised in a Christian home with Christian parents who worked at a Christian school and were very involved in our local church and made our faith a huge priority in… Continue reading What’s so “good” about Good Friday?
Threads of Gratitude: Cardboard Testimony Edition
Our church is doing something amazing for Easter. I get shivers just thinking about it. Volunteers have written a testimony of what their life was like before Christ and after Christ on two sides of a piece of cardboard. While the praise team sings, one by one the sign-holders come out and show the before… Continue reading Threads of Gratitude: Cardboard Testimony Edition
Debily’s Top 40
In honor of this significant milestone in my life, I present the Top 40 Things About Me, which could also probably be renamed, The Top 40 Things You Could Care Less About And Probably Won’t Read Anyway. That’s okay, I won’t tell anyone you’re actually interested and reading. 1. I weighed 8 lb. 10 oz.… Continue reading Debily’s Top 40
