Celebrating Thanksliving Every Day of the Year

Beth Ann Chiles/ Devotional, Thoughts, Writing/ 35 Comments/ 947

Thanksliving.  Isn’t that a great word? Our pastor preached a sermon about Thanksliving.   Autocorrect keeps trying to change that word to Thanksgiving but that’s not what I am talking about . Thanksliving is a way of living every single day as a thankful person. Continue reading →

A Few Words for Today

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 6 Comments/ 538

Sometimes I just need to be reassured that things are going to be okay. It isn’t that I don’t know it in my heart but the power of words is pretty awesome at times. Sunday was one of those times that words printed in our Continue reading →

Beth Ann Chiles/ Charity, Holiday/ 7 Comments/ 390

If you know me well you know that I don’t decorate for the Christmas holidays until after Thanksgiving. Never have and probably never will. I just like to enjoy Thanksgiving and all of the things that come with it. But It is about this time Continue reading →

Beth Ann Chiles/ Devotional/ 27 Comments/ 1080

Today’s post is a repost from 2017 just because I needed to be reminded of what I wrote and still need to be mindful of. Sand burrs are the worst. If you have ever encountered a sand burr at the beach you can most certainly Continue reading →

Simple Beauty

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 6 Comments/ 454

Chris and I took advantage of the beautiful day on Wednesday and after a early morning dump date (yippee to them taking recycling again after a long haul after the hurricane of not being able to take it) we took a quick walk from our Continue reading →

A Little Sweetness

Beth Ann Chiles/ Products, Writing/ 4 Comments/ 532

Sometimes a little marketing goes a long way. I recently bought a package of Splenda –those cute little packages that I use in my morning coffee. This particular package made me smile. Repeatedly. . The front of the package is simple and what I have Continue reading →

Remembering My Mom

Beth Ann Chiles/ Family, Writing/ 5 Comments/ 509

Yesterday would have been my mom’s 95th birthday. It is difficult for me to realize that it has been almost 4 years since she passed away. So many days I think about telling her something. I guess that never goes away, does it? When you Continue reading →

All the Light We Cannot See
by Anthony Doerr
This is quite a book! I had it recommended to me by several people and while I thought it might be a little dark and depressing it made me have a better understanding of what life in this time period was like. The strength of the huma...

An Abundance of Katherines

Another great book by John Green. I have become a huge fan of John Green since my reading of A Fault in our Stars and this book was another that did not disappoint me at all. It was a story of a child prodigy, a lot of anagrams, and a b...
