I love Yeshua and know He is with me through everything I face. He will get me through this physically, emotionally, mentally and spiritually. Praise Yeshua/Jesus!! I am as ready as Yeshua lets me be in my armor, for the end of days.

Wow! What a loud coffee house I’m in trying to write my podcast and devotionals. I was trying to save on my gas tank because I’m having to drive my old lady gas guzzler car. My smaller gas economic car is broken down. My hubby said we will have to order the parts and then he can fix my car. I just have to have patience, that’s not easy for me. If any of you know me, I don’t wait around for some guy to fix my car or anything else. I was taught to try on my own either how to fix it myself or pay for someone to fix the problem. Course years ago, I was blessed to have auto mechanic’s I cut their hair. We would do some trading. I miss that. I had construction guys to help me out too.

My ex was always working nightshift. I have always been a go getter, or you could say stubborn, I guess. My body can’t do what it used to do. I used to be the one gal that my students would come to open jars of pickles and peanut butter. Not now, it really sucks! I will keep being independent as much as Yeshua will let me be. I won’t give up ever. Yeshua loves me just the way I am. And I know He loves you too just the same.

        I would like to talk about my dogs again. These days we’ve been hiking in the rain and cold. It’s been not so much fun. We took my dog Frankie to the vet to have the fat deposit on his side, to be looked at and tested again. We found out it’s going to cost a lot about over two thousand dollars. And we also found out that he’s actually eight years old not six. We decided to find out about this test and go from there. Haven’t heard anything yet. I’m concerned. But I’m trusting Yeshua through this. I love my Boo Bear, Frankie. It was fun to have him at the ocean with me. Course he did want to go out walk on the beach and chase the waves a lot. I’m thankful he still wants to play. I have been so blessed to have Frankie. Time has gone by so fast. Both Dave and I were surprised he’s two years older than we thought. So, we could have four or five or so more years with him. I tried to do my best making sure to walk him and Gracie my other dog.

        I remember Frankie laying in the sunshine in the grass. He looked so beautiful with his feathery fur flowing in the wind. I took a picture of him. He actually likes to get his picture taken. Gracie doesn’t at all. I have so many pictures of Frankie. When he was a fluff ball puppy, when he pooped all over the floors around the house. When we were house training him. I remember when Dave’s momma and brother came over to visit from Missouri. It was hilarious when Frankie would go poop well diarrhea all over the floors and it smelled so bad. They freaked out and ran to the kitchen. I was laughing so hard. They said you need to clean that up. I said it wasn’t my turn, you guys will have to wait for Dave to come in to clean it all up. I could tell you all kinds of stories of my sweet dog Frankie.

Now with Gracie, she’s a sweet and loving dog too. But I didn’t get to have much time with her when she was very young like I did with Frankie. I had gotten sick and couldn’t go on those long walks with Gracie. But after she became about two, we did more I got better, Praise God. Gracie is a long legged and short haired dog. She wants to snuggle up on our laps but she’s too big now, and very wiry. I do love her just as much. We’ve taken long walks but with Frankie. I got to have fishing trips and hikes with Frankie for three years before Gracie came along. I will have to figure out time with just Gracie and me.

My Son, Josiah is fixing a camper on our property. He’s sealing the windows and the edges of the camper. Soon it will be livable. I’m excited for him. His stepdad and him will be replacing wood paneling inside. They will be checking the wiring and the fridge and the stove. If they don’t work, then we’ll go buy them for him. I’m sure he will be pitching in too. This will be own place like a cabin. His cat Menorah I hope will like it too. Josiah and I will be going to the thrift stores and look for curtains and cushions. He will need a twin sized mattress too. If anyone has one or can help out that would be very nice. His stepdad wants to have them both build a tiny home for Josiah later. Hoping to put it on his own property someday.  He will be staying for three years until he becomes a journeyman boiler maker. I’m excited for that to happen.

An albatross aloft can be a spectacular sight. These feathered giants have the longest wingspan of any bird—up to 11 feet! An eagle has a large wingspan too but not as large. The wandering albatross is the biggest of some two dozen different species. Albatrosses use their wingspans to ride the ocean winds and sometimes to glide for hours without rest. They also float on the sea’s surface, though the position makes them vulnerable to aquatic predators. Albatrosses drink salt water, as do some other sea birds.

These long-lived birds have reached 50 years of age. They are rarely seen on land and gather only to breed; at which time they form large colonies on remote islands. Mating pairs produce a single egg and take turns caring for it. Young albatrosses may fly within three to ten months, depending on the species, but then leave the land behind for some five to ten years until they themselves reach maturity. Some species appear to mate for life.

Albatrosses feed primarily on squid or schooling fish but are familiar to mariners because they sometimes follow ships in hopes of dining on handouts or garbage. I have seen garbage off of ships on the beach in MO clips.

Some albatross species were heavily hunted for feathers that were used as down and in the manufacture of women’s hats. The Laysan albatross was important to the indigenous hunters of the northern seas. Excavations of Aleut and Eskimo settlements reveal many albatross bones and suggest that the birds were an important part of human diet in the region. Isn’t that interesting?

I saw these birds in the trees off the beach at the ocean, when I went on my trip by myself. They are awesome birds! Don’t you think? I did see a lot of seagulls eating the critters out of all kinds of shells like the sand dollars and crabs. What an amazing experience when chasing the waves with my dog.

I have decided to write about our mothers who raised us. Some of us didn’t have mothers, some of us had our dads who raised us or someone in the family. Some of us had lost our mother at a young age. All mothers influence us when were young and when we become adults. I am reading a book about our mothers and about ourselves. By Henry Cloud and John Townsend. They are great authors; they have written the books on boundaries and so many other books. All of them are great. We don’t normally come out of our mother’s womb and know about boundaries and how influential our mothers will be in our lives.

I do believe our mothers have probably had a hard life when they grew up. They tried to teach us what they learned from their mothers. Unfortunately, a lot of mothers through the generations didn’t always learn from the Bible and Yeshua, how to raise their children. I am so sorry for that. And I do understand what you might have gone through as a child.

My mother had a lot of hang ups from her mother. Her mother didn’t have a good mother either. So, she just raised my mother like she was taught with violence and screaming over the years. There are generational curses that follow us too. So, we ask Yeshua/ Jesus to heal that part and take it from us. So, we can heal and walk with and in Him. Praise Yeshua!

My mother cursed me and taught me that it was not ok to be me, ever. She treated me with distain. I now understand that probably came from generational curses. But now I have changed this to Yeshua’s blessings on me and on my son. I do believe my son will carry the blessings to his children through Yeshua. And I do Praise Yeshua for this one every day of my life. Yeshua has taught me that I’m more than good enough in His eyes and that I’m His daughter warrior, He will love and cherish forever. He has saved me through all of that violence and pain from my past. Although I have to say I’m still recovering and I’m trusting Him more and more in my life. Do you feel this sometimes too?

I would like to tell you that our vacation to the ocean was great. Well, It was we talked and hung out for two full days. It was fun! I enjoyed the ocean and the beaches. We went to Copalis beach close to Ocean Shores. But then later on we decided to go to MO Clips. The beach there is way more interesting well to us anyways. To some people like to just sit in their cars and watch the ocean waves. We like to do that too especially when it’s so cold out.

We like to go to MO clips beach because of all of the shells and sand dollars we find there. We like to chase the waves. The power of the ocean floor is relaxing and compelling. Is it for you too? We get refreshed and impowered to think clearer. It brings us closer to Yeshua in a way. We walked for hours the beaches for two days. I do believe it was good for us to enjoy ourselves.

I wanted to let you know of MO clips if you don’t know of it yet. It’s on the other side of Ocean Shores. Where everyone goes in the summer. We’re introverts so, we don’t like to hang out with everyone. Oh, sometimes but mostly not. Our friends and we consider family own Gull Wing Inn. They only have three cabins, but they have a great place to stay.

i live for Yeshua, He gives me more inspirations and outlooks of life. Be Blessed in Yeshua/Jesus always and forever. Going to the beaches next to the ocean is healing to my soul and mind.

Good morning, I wanted to talk about my ocean trip coming up. My hubby and I decided to make reservations to go hang out for a few days at the ocean. I think it will be relaxing. Well, I hope so. We go and collect seashells and sand dollars. It’s a lot of fun chasing the waves to catch the sand dollars before the seagulls get them. I pray we’ll have time to talk and maybe play games. Our son will be taking care of all of our animals and house. He’s a sweetie.

This trip is part of our wedding anniversary gift to us. We will bring our rain gear and boots, so we don’t get too wet playing in the water. Our dogs will be at home. I’m sure they would love to come too. But we decided to not bring them this time. Maybe we won’t be interrupted so much.

In the first part of March, I decided to take another trip for me. A writers retreat away yes; I will bring one of my dogs. I will be at the ocean for a full week. This is my first time going off by myself. It will be relaxing, and I really need it. To start thinking on my book on my testimonies. And to start on other writings too. Such as, on bible studies, more devotionals and more podcasts. I really need me time. It’s a foreign concept for me. Is it for you too? I need time away with Yeshua mostly. I do take that time and I’m so blessed to have that time. I didn’t used to, I worked so much, and I served so much. I forgot about me; I didn’t think I mattered but I do. And you do too!

I’ve been learning with Yeshua’s grace and mercy. He’s been teaching me that I matter and that I need to keep up my boundaries on myself more than anything else. So, I am doing that. My hubby is starting to respect me more these days. I have noticed. I have noticed I can give him more of my love because of my boundaries on myself. It’s interesting how that works. I know I have read about this for years, but it really does work. Can you imagine yourself to do it too? I do hope you could give it a try. May Yeshua/Jesus Bless you indeed!

Let me start out with me with the dogs I had when I was a teenager. I lived with my aunt and uncle. They had a dog named Puppy original uh. He was a Weiner dog. I loved him so much. He was fun. He could have played for hours, chasing that ball. I describe him as adventurous. Then my auntie rescued a dog named Essa. She was abused from a Russian family. It was so sad. Essa I could describe her as a loving and caring dog. I spent a lot of my time after school with her, talking to her and snuggling. Then I moved out. Years later I got married and when we bought our house, we also adopted a Rottweiler / lab mix, from the animal shelter. WOW! He became my security dog and my very bestie friends. I named him Frank and sometimes Frankie. I trained him every day and night after work. We went to the beach, and I trained him there. He liked the water and to roll around in the beach sand. Later on, we adopted a dog from my girlfriend. To describe Jesse well, she was a mix for sure. She had Rottweiler, king Shepard and Akida. She was fun but very hyper.
