If I could, Id walk outside every day. But with a baby and a less-than-walkable neighorhood, its not always possible. I tend to park in the back of parking lot to get extra steps in. Today I really feel like moving and exercising. I can do a lot at home because I don't have any neighbors below...

Feeling refreshed. Can do 10 pushups in a row again. I try to do pushups every other day. So it took about three weeks. My passion for life is restored. Just needed some fun and rest. Im committed to cooking healthy meals mostly and completing my goal of getting to a healthy BMI. Im about...

Back up to 10 pushups at a time!

Soldiering on. I am experimenting with recipes I know. I made lemon turmeric chicken and added a gravy by adding chicken broth and flour. Im in a busy season but Im very grateful for my family. Spiritually, I believe Ill overcome if I keep renewing my mind with the Scriptures so Im keeping...

Hi, I am a staff member but not the same as a moderator in the sense that I can use forum disciplinary measures. The encounter team was chosen to be an example of good practice. There are three of us but the rest of the moderators should be able to help you, especially if you click the report...

We are saints. In Christ, we are to die to sin, according to Romans 6:1-13.

My parents met my little baby girl for the first time yesterday. That was a precious moment. I also ran myself ragged doing errands before they came. Im learning to let go of the desire of being acknowledged for it all. Several times I had to pray about my attitude. Thankfully, I kept my...

I hate sharing when I'm going through something these days. Today was a trial. That's all Ill say. The Lord is always good, though. I trust Him.

Ive decided Ill make the greatest difference in the world by faithfully loving my husband and children at home.

Made air fryer hash browns today. Itd be cool to make some from scratch

I napped while Naomi slept this morning. Then the chores went well. The kitchen can be a huge time sink if you don't keep up with it. But today I was able to do more than usual because I kept it clear yesterday. The huge pile of laundry is put way, bed made, clutter uncluttered, floors swept...

Ive been meaning to look at these. Music can minister to me in huge ways

1 John 4:17 17 Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world.

I consider oversharing a real problem. Real spiritual treasures can be spoiled by people's opinions and lack of understanding.

It's been a good day. Hubby went with Naomi and I to the nature trail. It's a paved trail so we took the stroller. Then I cleaned the kitchen and made fish, rice, and broccoli for lunch. This afternoon, Ill likely declutter through my scrapbooking supplies, fishing items, and books in the bedroom.

As a new Mom, a lot of people have strong opinions about what to do for your baby. But I'm going to trust my instincts and decide for myself what's best for her.

A true pro-woman movement would give more honor to all Moms, including those raising children alone, than feminism. But I don't think being a single Mom is like being a man because it's not the same experience. A single Dad's experience will be different than that of a single Mom. If you quote...

My To Do list is long. All the tasks are small byt they really add up. Instead of a digital notepad record, Im glad I wrote it down on an actual notepad. It will help me acknowledge how much I accomplish. Thankfully this morning was restful and I napped when the baby napped.

Welcome back! How's it going?

I'd like to get in shape too. My first goal is to get up to 50 pushups without stopping. Then, be able to do handstands. I plan to do this at home. Im not a big gym person. I am in an ongoing weight loss journey. Slow and steady. After pregnancy, I somehow got below my pre pregnancy weight. At...
