Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will.
– Romans 12:2 NIV

Well, the last time I tried this, I made it into a long dissertation! So I’ll try again. I was born in Asheville, NC, USA. I graduated high school in 1976; yes, that makes me 60 years old! I graduated from Western Carolina University with a major in Financial Accounting. I went to WCU because it was in the gorgeous Blue Ridge Mountains. My career was in Healthcare - Financial Administration. I was married in 1980 while in Asheville. We soon made our home in Richmond, Virginia. The marriage ended tragically in a divorce. I remarried in 1987 and my husband and I transferred to Greenville, SC where we still reside. I left my last hospital as a Controller to have a baby. Robert Andrew. That was in 1995 (that was 24 years ago)! I had been in healthcare for 22 years. After my son turned 7, I went back to work as a controller of two small businesses. That was a very rewarding experience. But after 5 years my father became ill and once again I had to stop working. Growing up in Asheville, I began riding horses and taking riding lessons at the Venable Academy of Riding in Fletcher, NC. I rode for many years and after too many “meetings” with the dirt, (accidents) my riding had to abruptly end. I filed for disability in 2010 and haven’t had a job outside of home since then. My passion was dressage. Today is February 15, 2019 and after taking a break for about a year, I’ve decided to return to my blog page where I reminisce and write about interesting things happening in the world today. I hope you’ll follow my blog and give me your take on today’s “political arena”, or things that have made a profound impact on/in your life. Come join me “for a trip around the world”.

You appear to be younger than me, so I’ll call you my little sister. How’s your wonderful day so far? Mine’s going great. I have a lot of things to do today before I go to the mountains for a quilting retreat.
My husband has decided he wants to go with me this year! Isn’t that wonderful? I don’t get good cell reception in the mountains so I won’t be able to check in unless we go down the mountain. But until next Monday, I pray you have an awesome Holy Week. Pray for my husband and I begin communicating better. His last day is work before he retires is 3-30-18. I’m fearful that this time will be a real challenge on our relationship.
We’ll be celebrating our 31 years of marriage this October! Isn’t that awesome! We’re hoping to do a lot of exploring of the United States and definitely want to go see the whales in the northwest.
If you can think of some places that God has created that is simply beyond belief, let me know. Ok?
Until next week – you can text or blog me anytime. I’ll check my messages daily!
