Some of you may have heard my personal testimony on why I have wholeheartedly said "Yes" to a company I knew little about but experienced amazing results with the product in a short time. Time enough to give me a glimpse of a vision that God was working and was delivering an answered prayer to me that I had prayed for, for many years. I drank my first shake about three weeks after my last child

Never Give Up! There have been times during my Visalus run that the road has gotten a little bumpy; things not lining up like (I) would like them too at a particular moment, people falling by the way side or one more dropped autoship.  Personally, I faced challenges that seemed to distract my attention and focus.Life issues, family drama and such seemed to require way more attention than (I)

Wow! Where did the last three months go, but away...Gone, forever in the dust. What lessons have been learned, what goals have been achieved, the sadness, the good times, the in-between experiences, the holidays, the reconnecting of old friends, family and new relationships. I have managed to coast along, digging deep at times, digging deeper at other times and then resting few and far between in

My Prayers were answered. For years, I prayed for guidance and direction for a lucrative income as child support would end. The Lord would orchestrate for me a business to operate that would generate income for our family that would exceed mediocrity. I continued to pray for 15 years and watched as the month of July 2010 rolled around and the last direct deposit emptied into my checking account.

Sunday in church, I received a message that has been ringing in my ears ever since. It's one of those things, like a tune, you can't get it out of your head. The preacher from Buckhead Church in Atlanta began a series of messages on "WORK". What comes to your mind when that word is mentioned? Thankfully and gratefully, I have been in a position for many years to be able to "do what I love and

Isn't it though? Well the first day of autumn came and went last week. The temperatures didn't reflect much of a seasonal sort of day but the air is dry and the farmers continue to harvest the crops like no tomorrow.

Repurposed Broach with Vintage Center Bling Saturday, I was able to get out and ramble around for a couple of hours to "seek and find".

I have to keep reminding myself to keep my dates straight. With much going on in my personal family life, my thoughts are distracted at times. However, through God and proper living tools, I can remain "somewhat" grounded. The Visalus Program has been a tremendous outlet as my daughter was diagnosed with mental illness four days into signing as an ESS. I managed with the help of God and

It is for FREEDOM that Christ has set us free. ~ Galations 5:1 Chandler  After nearly two weeks of "not the norm", (but what is the norm?), life is still forever changing. We rode the waves, hanging on in the balance and then, calm prevailed. I've had my opportunity to "Let Go...Let God" plenty over the past 14 days and the freedom that phrase gives me is like nothing I can describe. Chandler,

There is a time for everything, a season for every activity under heaven. A time to be born and a time to die. A time to plant and a time to harvest. A time to kill and a time to heal. A time to tear down and a time to rebuild. A time to cry and a time to laugh. A time to grieve and a time to dance...Ecclesiastes 3: 1-4 August 31, 2010 ~ Panama City Beach, Sunset

My daughter, Chandler, at Thanksgiving 2009. I started the Visalus on August 16th with a vengeance. I wanted to feel good and lose a few pounds. I'm 46 and didn't think that the 15 pounds I wanted to lose would ever come off. I thought I would have to "settle" for those pounds since I was beginning the stages of menopause. WRONG!!!!!I lost 10 pounds the first two weeks by being on shakes. Two

Last Sunday evening..new church...new friends...filled with Hope and Promise....ONE PHONE CALL. Reliving the past week has been like a surreal dream for me. The episodes that filled the past seven days make me grateful for my foundation. A foundation that begins for me with the words..."Be  Still, And Know that I am God", Psalms 46:10. The ebb and flow of life as you hold on and then let go..

This seems to be a common feeling these days..Every where I turn, there's a new opportunity waiting to pounce. Am I attracting this or is someone trying to tell me something? And whose fault is it really?

These passions become the fuel for our creativity. our energy, our drive and our determination.  They equip us to do mighty things, things that bless us and our families and bring other people closer to God." ~ Kristin Armstrong, Work In Progress.

I have been in Panama City Beach the past couple of days, spending time with my daughters and trying to catch up on some much needed rest from our trip last week on the 127 Yard Sale (i'm getting there). Anyway I have lots of new finds and new ideas to transform some "trash to treasure". A couple of weeks ago, I started making the Belt Buckles with the vintage beads and baubles that I find around

A first for me as I take off tomorrow to the Longest Yard Sale..This should be a trip to remember...I'm tagging along with two of my fellow junkers as we travel the roads  up through Kentucky and Ohio to work our way down. This promises to be a non-stop adventure filled with heavy duty negotiations, hagglings and million dollar deals. Not to mention junk, antiques, jewels, vintage and everything

I'm busy this end of the week getting ready to clean up and clear out. We are having a Yard Sale at The Bus Station (Colquitt, GA). If you don't know by now, this is our retail establishment. There should be all kinds of goodies and assorted wares. I'll post pictures of course,  as the show unveils. Stay tuned as I try to stay on task with this madness.

There comes a time in most southern girls life that they get to take a trip to L.A. (lower alabama that it). Tomorrow Juniper and I are headed out on a junkin' spree. It should be one of those days when everything you do just feels right. We are gonna seek and find, hunt, plunder and see what turns up... I hope I have lots to talk about because right now, I'm headed for the rack to dream about

I have been jeweling for the past "ALL WEEK". I've found a new "source" for my vintage bling and I am so excited. I created a vintage rhinestone belt buckle this morning and really want to keep it but hubby says sell. I've listed on etsy.com and will have to send out a link to that. All of the new styles are one of a kinds and include all kinds of different beads, stones, charms, Turquoise (

Chinese Green Tea with a little bit of Tupelo Honey When I was in China a couple of months ago, I went on a business appt. and for the first two hours, we drank tea! Not iced, sweet tea from the south but hot, green or some kind of tea. It was an ordeal. I captured a few pictures and today as I blog, blog, blog at The Bus Station,(Colquitt, GA) did I mention my partner a.k.a Bus Driver Sam or

Today was a good day. Just a plain, old fashioned good day. It's now 9:30 PM and I just brushed my teeth for the first time. Now, that's when I know I've had a good, relaxing day...Pajamas stayed on all day long which means, didn't have to go anywhere or didn't really have to see anyone special. Except for Billy and Roger, (our canine child), those were the only other beings that crossed by me

I got a little busy this week and created a couple of new things. Inspired by the west, I found an old cowboy boot that belonged to a distressed cowboy and so I talked him out of it and used some pheasant feathers, dried pod okra, reindeer moss and mixed it all together for a recycled concoction...These can be found at The Bus Station in Colquitt, GA or you can follow us at http://

Okay, back to reality...Heat Index rising to over 100 degrees tomorrow. Montana spoiled me with it's cool nights and moderate, gorgeous 70 degree weather. I was about to post some pics of the wildflowers in Montana but I have to go get our dog food from the big city of Jakin, GA..I got the wrong kind yesterday so I have to drive about 10 miles (one way to pick it up.)

We returned from the Wild West last night..What a trip!...I'm truly amazed by the west and the way the western spirit  grabs your heart  as you return over and over and each time, revisiting, the stronghold is a little more fierce. I'll have days and days of blog pictures as I tried to really capture places and things that got my attention...We visited antique stores, museums, western leather,

Today we are travelling to Cody, WY to see a part of the west that will be new for us. Yesterday was an afternoon of white water rafting down the Gallatin River and then to the Oasis Steak House for a true angus beef steak dinner with all the trimmings. Here are a few pictures that I managed to capture during our busy day.... Oasis in MAnhatten, Montana Us after our whitewater trip down the

Ahhh, the air is thin and clean or so it seems...the mountains surrounded us and gobbled our souls as we landed on Sat. and immediately began our 10 day trip out west. With John Mayer singing in the background Wonderland,   I am happy to share our trip..We brought daughter Courtney on her maiden vogage and she feels the spirit of the west, no doubt she would;  a true cowgirl at heart..Her home

Yesterday, June 21st was the first official day of summer....I awakened at my normal time of around  6:30 and put on the flavor of the week...Starbucks French Roast. This was on sale at Publix about 10 days ago and I should have bought 2 bags because I really love, love, love! Anyway, went outside and sat in the rocking chair and I waited for the sun to surface...I began the watering ritual as

I am headed over this morning to pick the last of the hybrid blackberries from my mother-in-laws bush. We made black berry preserves about three weeks ago and so I'm going to make cobbler this morning. We went to Ray's IGA last night in Columbia, AL  and got our necessary ingredients with the main staple of Breyer's Vanilla ice cream. Which brings me to another topic; I love, love, love all the

The temperature in south Georgia is already tipping the 90's at 10 am this morning. I am headed out to The Bus Station, our retail store in Colquitt to set us up a new blog page so that we can bring to you unique items and tips for deorating. We are somewhat on a different wave as your typical, everyday "gift store" so hopefully through our new blogging page, we will be able to convey the message

2010 has flown by...Already into May and of course I'm just blogging for the first time. Oh well, nothing like the present. Las Vegas Market was in February and then I found myself travelling to the Midwest (Minnesota) in March for the Gift Show and April revealed a trip to China to the Canton Fair. What an experience for a south Georgia girl or for anyone

As we faithfully cut the red ribbon on March 6, a dream turned into a reality. Setting up to play and watching the community turn out as The Bus Station opened its' new doors as a Gallery of Sorts was a surreal experience. The morning started bleak with news that sent me onto an emotional roller coaster. Even though I was about to be a proud new business owner, my "real"home life was still in

Located in Colquitt, GA which is the home of the folk play "Swamp Gravy." Google if you want to find out more on "Swamp Gravy.

When you hear the word cancer, our heartbeat quickens and our fears rush in. It's a natural response to a dreaded disease. As we begin to muddle through the emotions and endure through the process of accepting what is, the blessings begin to show up in the most obscure ways. Little things become huge and gratitude becomes the order of the day. If you have yet escaped battling the "C" word with

I hope that this is a pleasurable experience for all as I learn and grow; watching a dream unfold as we speak..or as I type.
