As the name of my blog indicates, I spend a lot of time thinking about home. Of course, my Heavenly Home is the one that is eternal, so that’s where I need to lay up my treasures, and that’s the one I’m striving for. But in the meantime, I have been given this tiny piece of the here-and-now—this home on the edge of town, this family, this neighborhood—in which to serve Him. And, though this is in the earthly realm, I want the things that happen here to be investments in the Heavenly realm.

Blog Break


I am taking a little blogging break while I recover from oral surgery. My plans for the next few days include: 

Frozen coffees . . . 



Reading . . . 



Blended creamy potato soup (made on Sunday in preparation) . . . 



And ice packs. (Apparently, my pride was removed with my wisdom teeth or I'd not be showing you this no-makeup, no-smile, swollen-face photo.)


I'll see you in a few days!

    Oh, Cheryl...you poor woman. That certainly looks miserable. (Your expression mimics one I have seen recently.) May those iced coffees soothe and may the girls come up with delicious, nutritious soups for the next couple of weeks. You are in my prayers...

    Bless your heart! May your recovery be swift and complete. I had wisdom teeth pulled in my 20's, no fun.

    Oh dear, that does not look like any fun, Cheryl. Take it easy. I know the family will take good care of you. Do you have a bell or a buzzer? 😁
