"Undecided" - not having made a decision, opposite of being certain, confident. 

I don't know about you, but some days, I can be undecided about many things; what to wear, what to eat, should I read or do housework, etc.  We have so many choices and at times, it can feel overwhelming!

Musings that Matter

Five Minute Friday Challenge

Recently, I celebrated a life well lived by an aunt and recalled the 10th anniversary of my Grandmother's passing. It feels like too many friends have also lost loved ones in recent weeks.

Ignore

Five Minute Friday Challenge

Silvrback blog imageWe have had some harsh winter weather in TN for a few days here and there over the past month. It is difficult to ignore the warnings of the local meteorologists. We have had "red alert" weather days for extreme cold (zero degrees with below zero wind chills), excessive rain, and also some freezing rain/sleet/snow mixtures. I am thankful they . . .
