Many years ago, when I was 24 years old, God used an orange Volkswagen Rabbit, a sporty red Audi, and a toll-taker to teach me a valuable lesson that I've carried with me to this day.My husband and I had been married a few years and, like many newly married couples, we had no money. …
No Worry Zone
This past summer, I had a breast biopsy. And I know when doctors want to do biopsies, they are usually looking for something, and that something usually means more surgeries, possible chemotherapy, radiation, pain, and, in worse case scenarios, death.

A Peek at The Peak
Every day when I leave my neighborhood, I see this gorgeous view of Pikes Peak: And every time I see it, I am amazed at its beauty. One day as I was being amazed at the beauty of Pikes Peak, I thought to myself, "I should take a picture of this every day and post …
