Rainy Day Hack!

We have two large German Shepards, Arrow and Beau. That means a lot of muddy paw prints with all of the rain we have had lately!! Typically, we put down towels to help save the floor a bit, but that means a full load of towels, like 10-15 of them! Plus they don't stay very well as the dogs run through the house! Enter my stash of random sheets that no longer get used!

Using old sheets are easier to wash than a load of towels or the carpet, and they are a bit cooler to stretch out on, keeping these crazy canines a tad bit cooler, although they will lay in the kitchen too.

Bottom line, anything you can pic up ans wash is going to be better than cleaning your carpets!!

I am starting this blog to document my life and how faith is playing into that. Over the years I have always had a fascination with theology, religion, and mythology. However, I never felt a true calling until the last few years. Seeing the difference one person can make just by showing love to another person is huge! So what do I plan to write here?

I am 37 years old, I have two boys, and I work full time for the USPS. I also sit on my church council as President. I am ...

To expand my experience and my ministry, I have taken on the task of giving a service once a month at Green Acres in Mason. Green Acres is an assisted living community with many residents. It is truly humbling to be able to provide this service for them. Most of them have some form of disability and need full time care, so they are unable to go out into the community as we know it. This past weekend, I was able to give my first of many services. It isn't a full service as you might expect, but we do have music, prayer, communion, and I do a mini sermon. For people of faith, having this brought to them so they can hear the word and feel the healing power of the sacrament is an amazing thing to see. They don't care that I almost dropped the chalice of grape juice or that I stumbled over my words. They just enjoyed it. The unconditional grace and love is palpable. For Sunday May 5th, we read John 21:1-19. I invite you to read it now. And then watch my mini sermon below. ...
