As a psychology major, I took many personality tests- some for fun and some for school purposes. One after one the tests would tell me that one of my strongest personality traits was something called “conscientiousness.” As a young college student, that was just some big word that I didn’t understand. I would always just […]
If you want to make my blood boil, the quickest method is to show me a pharmaceutical commercial of some kind. We all laugh at the absurdity of them. Saturday Night Live parodies them. You know what I’m talking about. Take Lunesta, for example, which is a drug used to help people sleep better. They tell […]
All of the colorful leaves have fallen to the ground. Temperatures are dropping. Christmas is close enough to taste. And whispers of winter are in the air. Earlier this year I wrote a post about my new journey, starting an organic garden. I look at that garden space now and see only brown leaves and weeds. […]
Long time, no see. I’ve been slacking on the blog lately. I had a situation tonight that has spurred me to write again, mainly because I need to vent but also because I need a reality check.

It seems that organic gardening and composting go hand in hand. So off on another adventure we go! The big […]
We’re going on an adventure. It may not seem very adventurous for some, but for me…it’s way out of my comfort zone. This adventure is called gardening. Yep, that’s right. We’re starting a garden. Let’s travel back in time for a moment to see a young Kelly.
Today I want to address the church. There’s a question burning on my heart: Does God care about our health? Our physical health. We address emotional and spiritual health all the time in the church community, but does God care about our physical health? There are some who might say no, but I’m guessing the […]
As I shared in my last post, I recently reversed my allergies. Many have asked how that’s possible. Most people are allergic to something whether it be cats or pollen or food.
