What’s your definition of romantic?

View all responses

There is no one, real, definition of romance, as far as I’m concerned!

Love displays itself in many ways, and romance could be considered one of them, but as soon as we try separating the idea of romance from all the other aspects of love within an intimate relationship, everything suffers.

I so wish folks could understand that if a person jumps past the important parts of love, to get to the good stuff, so to speak.

I don’t hold to any specific rule for successful romance, but rather, observe my husbands general attitude toward me, in our daily lives.

While we do not have money for romantic dinners, outings and/or vacations, nor would there be any room for fancy gifts inside this old RV, even if we could afford them, an attitude of love and tenderness makes all the difference!

Regardless of what my husband does to express romance, the fact that he thought about making the effort to win my affections, is why he always wins my heart.

Romance will be dead

if there’s no love in the bed!

How do you express your gratitude?

View all responses

I shall not squander the life given to me by my Creator! In the words of someone I admire,

“Those who cling to worthless idols forfeit the grace that could be theirs. But I with a song of thanksgiving, will sacrifice to you. What I have vowed I will make good. Salvation comes from the Lord.” Jonah 2: 8,9

You can call me selfish, I suppose, but I want every single ounce of grace that God is offering. I’m not forfeiting any of it!

Just sayin…

What are you most worried about for the future?

View all responses

I do not worry over that which God has firmly within his control!

While I may experience fear at times, or even a certain amount of distress in the middle of a circumstance, my faith in God overpowers and triumphs over those fears.

Besides, why would I want to waste my energy dwelling on fears and worries, when God has already promised to give me a hope and a future!

What makes a teacher great?

Instead of saying that those who can’t teach, do, maybe we should say that those who do, often end up teaching others, rather well!

Have you ever had surgery? What for?

View all responses

Wow! I just got a strong sensation of sitting in a Doctor’s office. You’ll have to excuse me for today’s prompt, as my personal health history is not up for conversation.

Why would WordPress or the general public, for that matter, want to know about my personal medical history? The answer is beyond me!

I do have some cookies for you, though…

What are your daily habits?

View all responses

While I probably have a good many habits, the one that stays with me wherever I go, is the need for coffee, tea or water.

I’m not a big fan of soda or juices, and I lost interest in alcoholic beverages a while ago, for the most part. For as much trail hiking and sweating that I put my body through, nearly every day, it didn’t make a great deal of sense to only drink diuretics and sugary berry water, all day long.

If you think I would choose alcohol over coffee, you’ve gone round the bend!

If you know me at all, you know that I love my coffee… ok… and cookies!

Here, I brought some to share…

Are there things you try to practice daily to live a more sustainable lifestyle?

View all responses

As I’ve still no working toilet, still have to walk two buildings down to carry hot water back to the RV for washing dishes, and will most likely be tossed off the property in the next two weeks, I’m not so sure this is sustainability, as much as survival. Neither one is fun right now, nor are either working for me that well… just sayin.

I’d suggest we go with someone else’s answer to the daily prompt, today.

What’s the most delicious thing you’ve ever eaten?

View all responses

Hands down, probably my favorite thing to have ever had the pleasure of tasting, would be cheesecake… more specifically, Mango and Key lime Cheesecake!

About ten years ago, we were invited to dinner at The Cheesecake Factory, where I had a wonderful Asian salad, followed by a large slice of the best cheesecake I’d ever before tasted. Unfortunately, my salad was so large that I didn’t have enough room in my stomach to finish the mouth watering dessert. Packaging my prize into a to-go box, we took it home with us.

When I awoke the next morning, the first thing I thought about was finishing my dessert with a fresh cup of coffee. Arriving in the kitchen, I went straight to the refrigerator, only to discover it missing; my cheesecake had been stolen!

There, sitting on the couch in the living room, was my husband, with the crumby evidence written all over his mustache… he’d eaten my prize!

Long story short, my hubby had to make a very long and expensive trip back to the Cheesecake Factory later that week. My guilt trip was done with such skill that I earned an entire Cheesecake out of my harrowing ordeal.

Here, I thought you might want a slice…

I was given a gift

on the day of my birth…

It may not look like much

But it shows how much I’m worth!

“My frame was not hidden from you, when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth, your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me, were written in your book, before one of them came to be.” Psalm 139:15, 16

How important is spirituality in your life?

View all responses

What is important to me, above the idea of spirituality, is to simply walk with God one day a time. Beyond that, I don’t really place that much importance on things most people might.

If we really want to think on it, loving your neighbor is a great deal more important than spouting scripture and spraying your spirituality all over them…

Just sayin…
