I will be honest yesterday was a hard day! I am glad the hard days don’t last a lifetime but for only a moment in time!! This morning as I was waking up I realized my legs were very sore so I did some stretching for two minutes. One of my tasks today is to…

Thankful ~ Day 29
I’m trying…not a good day…phone won’t read my glucometer…more money to spend from a bank account that is empty. Blood sugar dropped ~ that’s how I found out my phone won’t read my glucometer…I have a splitting headache and am grumpy as XXXX (you can fill in the blank). Maybe, just maybe I should go…

Being Thankful Day 27 & 28
Alternate title: It’s hard to be thankful at times! I’m really struggling right now and to be honest finding something, anything to be thankful for has been hard the past two days. It is much easier for me to focus on the negative BUT I know God doesn’t want me to focus on that. Day…

Extending Grace to Myself ~ Days 25 & 26
Day 25 (last day of catch up 🤣) Yesterday was a day of rest for me. I did not go for a walk and at first the mind was going “come on, get out there” but the body was saying “not today as my hips/back were really sore.” So I said, Ali if Friend said…

YET God…

Catch up Day 17 ~ I am always so amazed at where and how the Lord meets me right where I am…I don’t know why I am so amazed because He never fails me!! Maybe I am amazed so I keep seeking and learning from Him!! My reading today was found in Psalms 18…so much…

Gratefulness ~ Day 12 ~ God’s Mercy
It’s been a few crazy days…I laughed as I typed that because it always seems like life is crazy. Tuesday found me having multiple “emotional” episodes…I know feelings are feelings and they just are. They are not right or wrong but boy sometimes they just come out of nowhere and throw me for a loop.…
