I have confessed before that I enjoy a NASCAR race every now and then. I really enjoy the last 50 laps of the race when things get a bit crazy. In lots of the races, the winner is determined in the last few laps, if not the last lap. I’ve learned in the last…
I’m not really thinking about a coin that has been flipped and landed on heads. I’m talking about advanced notice or warning of something that is going to happen. When I’m meandering through life and something is about to happen that someone else knows about, I definitely appreciate a “heads-up”. As a parent, I’ve tried…
Sometimes I have a “senior moment” and my memory “slips a gear”! I can’t remember what I had for lunch yesterday or everything I was able to do. Today is a bit different and yesterday was a big day. Yesterday was Resurrection Sunday or Easter, as we often refer to it. Yesterday was the…

Some of the secrets could be really damaging to themselves and their reputation. Some secrets could lead to arrests and even jail time. Other secrets would…
I used to really consistent with working out. I used to run 3 miles per day. (Those who know me can’t quite picture this right now!) I also used to work out lifting weights five days a week. Now my body looks like one that used to work out and stopped. I’m using working…
I do like a good mystery movie, but I do like the mystery to be solved in the last 15 minutes of the show. I used to watch the TV show, Perry Mason, Matlock and then Monk as they would solve the mystery of “who done it”. It was usually a surprise ending. There are…
