Sister Rain Henge

Posted on August 8, 2016 By Sister Rain

Working to tidy up our spare bedrooms, I found myself uncovering relics from a previous era of my life. Suitcases that were put into action every month, a laptop wheelie bag that accompanied me to the office and the plane, business clothing, crafts and other projects from before my vision…

Posted on August 6, 2016 By Sister Rain

While out running errands this morning I kept thinking that when I get home I needed to put WD-40 on a cut on my finger. Yes, you read me right. WD-40. I would correct myself but I continued to think WD-40 in my head instead of Neosporene. It’s hard not to…

All relationships require work, but I was thinking today how my closest friendships are easy. That doesn’t mean we aren’t committed to each other or that we don’t put effort into making time to spend together. We also use the awesome technology available to us to keep in constant touch….

Give Me Enough Rope . . .

Posted on July 27, 2016June 2, 2017 By Sister Rain

Do you find it odd that I asked my husband to cut me 10′ of rope and he didn’t ask why? As you can see, he cut it. No questions asked. (Rope may appear in different formation than originally provided due to author’s right to poetic license.)
