My First Post

Welcome to my blog..I am a blogger? I guess, my sister designed one yesterday & I got the blog fever! One good thing I can see about blogging is that it causes me to think & it inspires me to write, which I used to like to do. I come from a family of creative people but in the last 6 years, my creativity has lazed. I just finished reading a book called If Mama Goes South, We are all Going with Her, it truly it home for me. I am or was South...like way south! I don't mean south as in Aruba, I mean depleted emotionally, physically & spiritually. Several points in it really showed me where I am mistaking my role as a child of God, wife & mother. Through God's Word, she explains how we can as women, grow, instead of going south. The chapters discuss, The Spirit, Body & Soul. Like exercising, I felt like it was necessary to get back in my skinny jeans...no...it is a stress reliever, healthy & alone time w/God, even if it is really early! Several other things ministered to me but one easy one I have been trying to apply is exercising the mind. Thus, writing my blog! The muscle is a mind & it needs to be worked. I have always hated word searches but...I have been doing them every once in a while, makes you think! Faith & I did a 4th of July one, who thought it could take an hour to find Philadelphia? Anyway, I think blogging is healthy, as well as fun.
