September goals

Is there anything better than a completed list? I seriously do that all the time.   As many lists as I make, it’s never crossed my mind to have certain goals for each month.

Here goes… 1. Devotions daily.  I haven’t opened my real Bible with my name printed on it in years. The YouVersion Holy Bible app on my iPad is more… Read More

Trendwatch: the cross-body bag

Hope you’re all enjoying your Labor Day!  An extra day off just makes so much difference, right?  I actually had this post planned for last week… but with school starting + getting sick + technical difficulties… well, it just wasn’t in the cards.   Good news!!  The NEW email button works.  I still haven’t figured out why the other one didn’t but I got this new one to work.  {You’ll have to re-enter your email address.}  Sorry for the inconvenience but thank you to everyone who kept me updated and was patient with me! Ok… on to today’s topic… I… Read More
