I think we can officially declare the #OldGal heater over as she posts a 4 today and victory is ours for the second day in a row.


Monday workout in the books. I really hate these body weight routines. But I suppose they are good for me. #Discipline2025

A workout summary highlights exercises targeting quadriceps, chest, triceps, and abs, with visuals of different exercises, calorie count, and a reward.

I love that the weather has finally broke and golf days with my Dad have returned.


Monday mornings are some of my favorite times. There is something beautiful about the quiet reflection on the week that was and dreaming about about the week that will be.

It appears that the heater from the #OldGal has come to an end. She also scores a five today.


A quiet Easter Monday morning. May you know that the resurrected Christ meets you with you compassion, empathy, kindness, and love. #MorningMug

Good morning! May we remember today that no matter how dark the day becomes the light has already won. #MorningMug

When Following Jesus Demands More Than We Imagined

Have you ever been in a position where you got more than you bargained for?

It seems to happen to me every single time I start a home improvement project. I am not what one would call, “handy”. No, I can barely tell the difference between a hammer and a screwdriver. Yet, I try to fix things because that’s the reasonable thing to do. I research how on YouTube and think, “I can do this!” Then, I get into it and realize that it is not as easy or straightforward as the YouTube Pro made it look.

This also happens when I get involved in volunteering for things. Often, I find that what I sign up for is significantly more involved than I anticipated. Nine times out of ten this is due to my own assumptions and not really paying attention to what was being asked of me.

In both scenarios I find that once I’m in, walking away seems to be unreasonable.


Workout 4 in the books! One more to extend the streak of 5 per week. #Discipline2025


Oh my the swipe actions on micro.social are so nice! @gregmorris just continues to make this app better and better.


Good morning! Even in the midst of difficult times, may we choose to serve one another. #MorningMug

I am looking forward to a slow day. I am beginning to realize that Mondays are not an β€œoff day” for me. But, Wednesdays really can be a day of quiet reflection.


Good morning! I pray that you see the good in the midst of any difficulty you encounter today. #MorningMug

The #OldGal posted a 4 and soundly defeated me. However, I’ve already seen a 2 from my guy @jswright61@ruby.social, so the #YoungPups have their victory.


Good morning! I pray you will find an opportunity for some silence and solitude today. #MorningMug
