Dirty Laundry

Cheryl - July 1, 2026

Having a washer that really wasn’t built to handle a large bed comforter, I asked my husband to drop me off at the local laundromat while he ran a few errands in town.  I’d already figured out the hard way (hey, it was worth a shot) that my average sized washer wasn’t equipped to deal […]

Roadblock in Aisle Three

Cheryl - May 31, 2026

Several months ago, I was inside my local Walmart store grabbing some items that I’d neglected to add to my usual pick-up order.  Preferring others to do my shopping for me because I’m not the biggest fan of going from aisle to aisle looking for things that I can never seem to find, I thought […]

Your Taillight is Hanging Down

Cheryl - May 5, 2026

One Saturday afternoon, several years ago, my husband walked into our house, asking me to look at his foot to see if I thought he should go to the ER. Now mind you, said foot was still inside his tennis shoe, which had been cut open by a chainsaw.  That newly vented tennis shoe was […]

Some Fries with My Miracle Please

Cheryl - March 31, 2026

For over a year now, I have been working on a book about my experiences from working in a church (both positive and negative ones). I’ve gotten a lot of opinions on how to proceed with my book. Those opinions mainly coming from Satan, and he of course wants nothing more than to interrupt the […]

Waffles in Church…

Cheryl - March 18, 2026

Last year, my husband and I went to see a live theater production of, The Thorn.  We’d never actually heard of it until a co-worker asked my husband if we planned on going.      After a little research, and a trailer preview of The Thorn, my husband suggested that we plan a weekend getaway.  Proposing […]

REFLECTIONS IN THE MIRROR…

Cheryl - February 25, 2026

I am one of those people who gets very frustrated with Christians who seem like part-time believers. Negativity goes hand and hand with doubting for me because I see doubting as not trusting God, and if you don’t trust God then how on earth can you call yourself a Christian. Oh how much I still […]

The Truth About Lying . . .

Cheryl - February 9, 2026

Lying has always been a pet peeve of mine, and yet, (I admit) I have lied. Okay, so nothing dramatic like perjuring myself in court, but more like those harmless little white lies that really don’t hurt anyone. I have told a child that I clearly see whatever animal they say they’ve drawn, when in […]

A Cheerful Giver. . .

Cheryl - December 9, 2025

During the Christmas season, I have often dropped money into the Salvation Army kettles, always strategically placed at the entrance of my favorite stores.  Sometimes I have given happily and other times begrudgingly, and there are those times when I will do whatever it takes to avoid those bell ringers.  Actually, I did that a […]

Eye Judgement . . .

Cheryl - November 4, 2025

There are right ways and wrong ways of judging someone, and before you get all righteous on me, yes, I clearly know that God is our only judge.  However, is that 100% accurate? For the LORD is our judge, the LORD is our lawgiver, the LORD is our king; it is He who will save […]

THEY . . .

Cheryl - October 1, 2025

If I were a betting woman, (I’m not) I could easily bet that at some point in everyone’s life, they’ve had someone use the pronoun “they” to describe a situation where irrational blame is involved.  I could also easily bet that I would win that wager (again, if I were a betting woman). However, I […]
