30 DoT: {days 8 & 9} a restaurant & a website

The restaurant that comes to mind is Stoll's Lakeview Restaurant in my hometown. Owned and operated by Christians, it was a great first job! They gave me my first job in college and worked around my schedule for me. Made some good friends while working there. Aside from gas money, it gave me an eye opening experience on how to handle serving others...and the fact that some people appreciate the littlest of things, while others are not pleased with anything. You take them both and make the most out of what you are handed.

The website I am most thankful for is my own. God has given me courage to begin blogging...not for money or followers, but for His glory alone. A place to express myself in order for God to use as He delights. I had signed up months before I ever typed a word for a post. I could not come up with a title. Apparently when the time was right it just all fell into place. Some 400+ posts later, I still am enjoying the blogosphere. I have blogs I visit, but will not begin naming them because I enjoy so many for different reasons, I do not want to leave anyone out.

home of the Braves

As a metro Atlanta resident, it seems almost a requirement to go to a Braves game to continue living here. I grew up watching baseball and loving the game...and have been to a few games in St. Louis, Cincinnati, Detroit...and of course, Atlanta. The problem for me going to a Braves game is purely mental...having been a Mets and Cardinals fan for years, I just haven't the love necessary for the Braves to call me a fan. However, as with many things in life that I haven't particularly enjoyed over the years, my boys make it so worth my time and heart. I go watch the Braves because I love my boys...and my boys and I love baseball. Well, they love what they know of the game...still in training, but getting the hang of the lingo and SOP's of a baseball fan rather well. There are a few things that remain the same from stadium to stadium..."the wave" (Braves' attendees do not always get into this, which is very di...

Wednesday's Walk...Janis Lynn

In searching for a photo from my senior year in college, I was bombarded with sweet, sweet memories of one of my closest college friends....Janis Lynn MacLeish. I met Janis in the fall of 1993 when she came to Taylor University Fort Wayne. She was in my wing of Lexington Hall. Although, I was her RA, Janis taught me so much about life and living in a very short time that I often felt she did a better job leading than I ever could. Life was never the same for me after she and I became friends. It was oh, so much better! The room brightened when Janis finally awoke and entered through the door of one. She befriended the likes of anyone and made no enemies...except for the girls who were jealous of her for one reason or another. Her laughter echoed throughout the halls everyday. One knew when Janis was away for the weekend for it was creepily quiet on campus. Janis ...
