Day 6 – Stones of Remembrance

October 6, 2018 by Patti 2 Comments

The Write 31 Days Challenge – 31 Days,Every Day,One Topic

Day 6

(day 1 starts here)

Are you ready for a break from the heaviness of my past few posts?  I know I am!

I ended yesterday’s post talking about stones, and how God wants to use the stones that have been thrown at us to build a strong foundation for the future.  Over the years God has turned the core of my pain into the core of my purpose, and that has made me grateful (I’m thankful for all things eventually) for any stones once thrown my way.

Bursting With News to Share!

March 7, 2018 by Patti 10 Comments

Where do I even begin to tell you everything I have to tell you about life over the past couple of months?

The last time I wrote, before leaving on a long Christmas vacation and much needed break, I was here, living in our Southern Colonial.  What I didn’t tell you at the time was that our house was SOLD.  In fact, it sold over Thanksgiving weekend but our Realtor, wanting to err on the side of caution, suggested that I not make any announcements until the final papers were signed. THEN, we held off the closing until January – so of course I haven’t shared the news until now.

But wait, this is March.  Yes it is, and I’ve been doing a ton of things I’m bursting to tell you about, but this post is going to give you a only glimpse of what’s been happening here, because I have far more important news to share today.

When Your Stager Nixes Christmas – Home Tour

December 5, 2017 by Patti 18 Comments

No holiday decorations allowed!

These were the exact words of our stager as we began the process of de-cluttering our house to put on the market.

So while Thanksgiving banners waved gaily on our street, our house had nary a wreath upon her door.  And when neighboring halls began their be-decking, our house stood naked of outward adornment.  Naked yes, but confident in her own Southern charm to bring a quick sale.
