Checking in or checking out?

It’s been a while since I’ve posted anything here. It seemed like a good idea just to type a few words, to hold a place in case I think of something it would have been nice to document! 

Yes! That’s still how it’s going …

Halfway across the country

Sunsets & kitties are as delightful to behold in Florida as in Oklahoma!

Just one day …

 I just skipped one day of Wordle. That was enough for now.

Puzzling or not …

 1-2-24 

Once again God is calling me to abstain from Wordle as an act of faith in God & my desire to know & do God’s will, to God’s glory. 


This seems to be calling me, just for today, at least for today, to give up puzzles — Wordle, Word Search, other little distractions I cling to for escape, avoidance, mindlessness. It’s a simple & tangible act of faith. Puzzles aren’t harmful in themselves but my clinging to them & doing them instead of more important things — & not trusting God to reveal to me the more important things — has clearly become an obstacle to positive change in my life. So, just for today, 1-2-24, I pray to let go of puzzles, including my Wordle streak, as an act of faith in God & my desire to know & do His will for my life.

1-3-24 I made it thru yesterday without playing Wordle. My current streak ended at 48 since I didn’t play. I’m grateful I could trust God to help me abstain & also abstain from & toss some newspaper puzzles. 

Today I want to play again. It’s 3:47 pm. I attended, read & shared in DDmed & CLA miracles meeting. I’ve transferred & deleted a lot of photos. I have a lot of packing to do. Is it OK to take a Wordle break? I guess I will find out …

 Here’s to the first day of 2024! No glorious sunrise, clouds, sunset or big bass photos, but how about those black-eyed peas?!? Happy New Year!

Enjoyed starting the day on the farm, then heading back to the other home in Norman. No resolutions. Just love, acceptance, peace, hope & gratitude.
