Hello to you. How are you? I’m doing ok. Yesterday was nice. My Aunt and I went out for her birthday dinner at the Rustic Kitchen in Star. She got her favorite fish dinner Halibut. They gave her a big piece of chocolate cream pie we shared for her birthday dessert.

Trusting my instincts yes or no – kind of a mixed bag with that. Sometimes my instincts are right on – in the flow of things but sometimes they are not. My instincts with as far as money is concerned aren’t the best. Sometimes I make hasty decisions and regret it later.
Proverbs 3:5-6
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and do not lean on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make straight your paths.
What personality trait in people raises a red flag with you?
Looking forward to Bible study tonight, hopefully more ladies will attend.
The personality trait that raises a red flag for me is dishonesty. More than anything I hate being lied to or misled, I have been called gullible before and that’s because I want to believe the best in people – give them the benefit of the doubt. Boy have I have been screwed over for that! When I was using dating apps especially.

Hello to you. Hard to believe it’s Friday again. Today is the celebration of Cinco Demayo and my exe in-laws 44th wedding anniversary. It’s so rare that people stay together that long. Even though I’m no longer married to their son I still consider them to be family. Once I love you it takes a lot for me to stop loving you. They are good people!
Todays prompt makes me think. I have never really had a direction in my life other than wanting to be a good person but it’s not been easy. Wanting to please God has flitted through my life, not to displease my family and friends has also been a reason for a direction. As I’ve mentioned before, as a young child and teenager I wanted to be famous but let go of that when I saw what fame does to peoples lives. Another primary direction has been not wanting to be forgotten. Since I never had children I have no one to pass my legacy on to.
A primary director, the Holy Spirit, seems quiet if not silent in my life. For so many years I felt I had a close connection. I could write, sing, draw, paint and make jewelry and other things. It’s probably just my being in an in between place right now. I think it’s also the medication I’m on that prevents mania from happening. Taking Lithium is different than taking Depakote and Zyprexa. I kind of miss the creativity and spirituality that comes with being manic. I think another reason for the lack of direction is the fact I’m still healing from my wounds these past couple of years. I am trying to stay open to God – to the Holy Spirit. I don’t think God is done with me yet!
A drawing I did back in 2015. I named it 7712 but I remember thinking of the title “Waiting” for it. I miss drawing like this – it’s like my creativity spigot is completely closed.
