READING CAN MAKE YOU SUCCESSFUL

Reading can enhance your life. Studies show that the most successful people are the ones who read. We can learn a lot by picking up a magazine, a book, or a newspaper. I think it's great to be able to talk to others about what you read, too. Reading promotes conversation, intelligence, and knowledge. So, what are you waiting for?

I think everyone has a story to tell, and we should. For many years, I got away from writing fiction, but I have had a great time writing my first novel as an adult. Changing real-life situations into fiction helps heal the heart.

What can I say about Life? Mine has been tough at times, but I'm grateful that God has given me mercy, grace, and love. I love my life and the family I've been blessed with.

There's No Place Like Home - Not Even California Unless CA is Your Home



When we woke up that Saturday morning, we were on a mission to get those 4 suitcases packed up and ready to go. We ended up leaving our water bottles and some of our snacks with the hotel staff because we couldn’t take it with us.

We ate breakfast at the hotel and then got gas at the station on the corner. There was a car with a man, woman and child in it, and the guy was asking for money to get home. Whether he was telling the truth or scamming people wasn’t our responsibility, but we did give them $20 and Jim told the clerk they were out there.

Turning Challenger in to Enterprise was a little bittersweet.

We got to the airport a little early, but it was okay. We sat and played… wait for it… CANASTA! And we ate lunch.

I would say that leaving the area was a little tough, however, we had our family waiting for us at home, and that made it good.

The layover in Las Vegas was HOT. The airport was hot, and it was just plain hot.

It seemed like the flight into Dallas took forever, but we finally arrived! Our luggage was one of the last to come off the plane, so we stood and waited for a long time. A lady from Plano was actually waiting, too, and we started talking. They were flying home from Chicago, and we agreed that it was very nice to be home.

Jonah had to drive around the terminal several times in order for him to stop and pick us up. But finally, it happened, and we were on the road to home.

Isaac stayed up to see us, but Jesse and Caleb were asleep.

Could our trip really be over? It went by in the blink of an eye.

I wish I could explain the emotions I feel when I think about this trip and what it meant to me. Maybe someday I will have adequate words, but for now, when someone says “California,” I just smile.
