My Life- it's as fun as puttin' lipstick on a squirrel

As I continue to fast from Social Media, I am still finding a need to share the little things I love in life.  I call this my fancy horse charcuterie board. I have a knack for seeing the unseen and the humor in it all. I simply dug in my husbands scrap lumber for a board. Why? I was tired of cutting apples on my truck bed with the liner grooves and all. It was simply a way to avoid chopping off a finger instead of chopping up an apple.  We have a horse that is on the mend and we visit the barn daily. This sounds effortless and awesome to the un-horse people. But it truly is not as glamorous as it seems.  As difficult as the last month and a half has been worrying about this horse and it's needs, I would not trade it.

[ a ]  For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out.   19  For I do not do the good I want to do, but the evil I do not want to do—this I keep on doing.   20  Now if I do what I do not want to do, it is no longer I who do it, but it is sin living in me that does it. So, comparison is bad. Social Media , which I am taki
