Happy Funday! I saw this quote and, knowing what a hard year 2020 has been, wanted to share it to encourage you. Yes, life is difficult. And despite the disagreements, there are some things we may not be able to change, but can be more sympathetic about. Someone will be President, COVID and mental health…
Happy Funday! Do you often feel like your having to beg others to act? Serve on our board, make a donation, volunteer for the event, etc. Consider this, if it comes down to begging, do we want them on our ark? Noah was laughed at while he built the ark for 120 YEARS!! Yikes! And…
Good Funday Morning! I heard a most excellent devotional on overcoming depression yesterday. From a teenager! He’s a new Christian and already digging into the Word and sharing his testimony. Maybe, if like me you have/do struggle with depression, this will give some hope. Here’s his scriptural outline: Mt 11:28 Take your burdens to the…

Happy Funday! Are you thankful? Do you let others know your thankful? More specifically do you send thank you notes? As part of grant writing classes I facilitate, I point out how important a hand written note is to tell a funder thank you. It’s becoming a lost art. The cartoon might express how you…
Good Funday Morning! Did you do something you really wanted or needed to this weekend? Did you make big plans but they fell through? Were you disappointed with yourself for not completing something? Guess what? You can let it go. Today and tomorrow are new opportunities to do great things, even if they are small…
Happy Funday! I hope you were good to yourself over the weekend. I saw this meme and thought Wow! Having anxiety and bouts of depression myself, I know there are times I was not good to myself.
