One month ago today my daughter Isis and I arrived to Nashville. To an apartment my hubby was waiting for us in and one that would soon take on the name of the “Nash Pad.” Arriving with only what would fit in my Eclipse (note: very small car) that was also occupied by our 11 year old Chihuahua, Diamond. A moving truck would not be bringing our furniture from our house in Orlando. Only the postman will ring the bell to deliver boxes of clothes we shipped before we left. No beds, no sofa, no tv. Why would we make this kind of change in our lives?
It’s been interesting to watch reactions to this move.
Why Nashville? Must be nice to have two places to live. You must have a lot of money. You did this for your child?
What about your husband? Why not just let her go on her own? You have to let go of your daughter at some point.
What about your own life? What if nothing happens in Nashville? What if it’s all for nothing?

It took me 3 years being online before I designed & started my personal blog here at Pliable in His Hands. I was so excited the day God gave me the name. I had told myself that I would not start till I had that perfect domain. Loving the name, the design came easy for me, something free flowing & artsy. After months of grabbing time to design and set up this blog, I wrote a couple of articles and have not been back. Was a desire to blog enough to keep one running? I quickly realized, no. As time continues to go by I realize that unless I make a deliberate decision to write and blog, it will not happen. Period.
I have been very disappointed in myself as I have had so much to write about. Life has taken me all over the place the past year and there is much to say. Why do I not sit down and write it out?

Is your Facebook Fan Page linked to your Employment section of your Personal Facebook Profile?
Recently I had to add my new Page to my Employment section on my facebook and found it was not working as simply as it did when I added Christian Women Affiliate’s page. For the life of me I could not get Facebook to bring up my new page to choose from. At the same time I was trying to link up my daughter’s Music Page to her personal page and had the same issue.
So, I was off. Off to figure it out. One of my fav things to do 
Figure things out. Some of you might be laughing because FB did recognize your page. I easily added LeadHer to my current list and that sent off a light bulb. Was it because my personal page was just that, personal. I had listed it under, Teacher. Hmm. My daughter’s was a Music Page. Was there something to being an Organization, or Full on Business?? I went in and changed it and it did not work for me. I have heard now that it does for some. Go ahead, try it. You can always change your page back.

God planned seasons not only for nature, but for our lives as well. Join me today over at the LeadHer blog, where I share practical tips for entering a new season.
As a LeadHer, we all face, “new seasons” in our lives. God is always shaping us to prepare us for each new season. Maybe you are entering a season of great joy, full of opportunities. It could be the starting of a new ministry or business, becoming an ‘empty nester’ or brand new mama!
Possibly, it’s a winter season we might find ourselves facing as we deal with an unforeseen illness, changes in lifestyles due to financial loss, a best friend moving out of state. Yes, new seasons in our lives are not always ones we ‘welcome’ in our hearts. But they come. (Ecclesiastes 3)
How do we prepare & celebrate these seasons of life that come and go? How do we enter into the ‘new normal’ as I have called it many times in my own life? Below I have shared a few tips that will meet you right where you are, on the way to where you are going. Continue Reading over at LeadHer…
As most of you know, my daughter & I are very close. In every way possible I have always instilled the love that God has for her. One fun way to do this through the years has been jewelry! Ok, no judgment here I have always enjoyed jewelry that ‘spoke’ to me, so I have done that with her. Wearing jewelry that speaks to you can be a gentle reminder through your day. Why not let her jewelry remind her of God’s love?
So, when given the opportunity to pick from items to review from DaySpring, it was a no brainer for me. The God’s Heart for You necklace had my girlie’s name all over it. With DaySpring’s history of quality I knew it I would not be disappointed, and I wasn’t. Now I get to share with you, along with a $35 Give Away!

When is it wise to wait on God? That seems simple enough, always. It’s always wise to wait on God. But waiting is not easy. Waiting is never easy, for anything. God does not conform to the ‘now’ society that we have become. He is patient, why should He expect anything less from us. So… He calls us to wait.
I am waiting on Him. I have put my company/ministry up for sale. (Christian Women Affiliate LLC) I believe I was supposed to. I waited on Him for a long while for clear direction on selling or not. Then when I did and proposals started rolling in, I could not find peace in any of them. I found peace in ‘parts’ of a lot of them. I almost ran with one of them. But then. The no peace, became an unbearable weight in my spirit. So, I put all proposals on hold. I had peace about that. But what now? I felt in limbo. What gives God?
