As I promised, I kept a faithful log of what I ate on my trip to New York, except for the last unexpected couple of days, because I was so out of it (read about that fiasco here). I was able to remain almost 100% SCD-legal. I say almost because I did indulge in an [...]

Stranded in New York: The 48-Hour Nightmare
Posted: June 27, 2010 in MiscellaneousTags: Airplanes, Travel
Travelling by plane has never been a major problem with us. Fairly smooth flying, no delays, no emergency landings, etc. Thank God. So when we arrived at JFK International Airport last Thursday afternoon, I was happily dreaming that in just a few short hours, I’d be home in my beloved Texas. We found our gate [...]

I’m baaaaaaack!!! After nine days in New York, and then a 48 hour nightmare driving back and forth from the airport (I will elaborate in another post), my family and I are safely back home, enjoying sweet relaxation. As I promised, I kept a faithful log of what I ate on this trip, and I [...]

Good evening! Tonight, my mom decided not to make dinner. On such occasions, we pull anything we want out of the refrigerator–usually fruits, veggies, cheese, and the like–and eat with a minor amount of clean-up to see to afterwards. I was in the mood for my “salad” when dinnertime came around tonight. My salad is [...]

“Rejoice always, pray without ceasing, in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you” 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18. Is that verse up there saying what I think it’s saying? Yes. I kid you not. I quoted that verse word for word. I even emphasized that one certain phrase in [...]
