This summer has been wonderful!  The kids had a blast, and I had a much needed break from the hustle and bustle life can bring. Summer was filled with great vacations, visiting family and friends, and just relaxing. One vacation was extra special to us, not just because we were together as a...

As I write this, I am overwhelmed with joy about everything (the good and the bad) that has happened in my life this past year.  While looking at my Christmas decorations, which were taken down New Year’s Day, I thought about all that God had done in 2017.  For some reason, I...

I’ve actually been writing this post in my head since February, but this weekend prompted me to put my words onto paper.  In February, I went to Pinot’s Palette at Lake Providence in Huntsville with an awesome group of women.  It’s an art studio where you can paint a lovely...

I was born and raised in a small town in the Mississippi Delta.  Ruleville, Mississippi has a special place in my heart and for good reason. I’m a country girl at heart, and being raised in the Mississippi Delta has made me into the person I am.  I have a heart for people, and I want to...

Being home in the Mississippi Delta always gives me that “warm and fuzzy” feeling inside.  I can visit with my family, see old friends, and eat good cooking.  My mom always prepared a feast whenever I came home to visit, but now that she is no longer here, I think I’ve found...

A couple of weeks ago, I chartered a yacht and cruised down the Tennessee River with some amazing women who always inspire me to be the best.  I know it has been a while since I sat at this computer and wrote a blog, but I’ve been doing some soul-searching, and this relaxing time on the...

A couple of weeks ago, I felt a large mass in my breast.  I had just checked my breasts in the shower on Sunday.  On Tuesday, I had a throbbing sensation near the lower part of my breast that I knew was not there before. I immediately called my doctor.  All of this happened during a time when...

I was in New Orleans this weekend. It was 75 degrees, and I was feeling girly, so I wore a skirt.  This was supposed to be a fun fashion blog, but it has suddenly turned into my podium. My favorite second line music is “Do Whatcha’ Wanna” by Rebirth Brass Band from New...

I think I’m in love with The Eaves Restaurant in Huntsville.  I went on a fun lunch date with some wonderful women I met during my time here in Huntsville.  Sometimes, you have to put work, kids, and everyone else aside and just spend time with the girls.  That’s what we decided...

I love lunch dates, and this lunch date was special because I spent it with a sweet lady from the Mississippi Delta. She grew up about 45 miles from where I was born and raised.  She graduated from Alabama A & M University and went on to medical school.  She is now a local pediatrician. I...
