About PUT

Updated 6/18/2020

I started PUT as a place to talk about the goings-on in my life and how my faith played a major role in those goings-on. 

In December 2010, for whatever reason, I stopped blogging in this space, and then I returned in April 2012, and then once again, I stopped, and then I picked it back up in 2013. Again, I stopped, and four years later, in 2017, I returned--only to leave again.

I had started another site and published a few posts and realized that those posts echoed what I started and continued to come back to in this space, and so now, I am returning again... almost 7 years since I began PUT...7... completion and perfection.


I hope to continue to use this space to speak my faith because every place in which I can infuse and spark my faith is another space where someone can be reached and touched and changed...and is another space where I can release those things that my Father wishes me to see, understand, learn from, and let go of, and grow and prosper!

Everything went according to plan 'til I got in the car and on the road. Somehow, some way, I couldn't find the place and found myself circling one particular area three times before frustration, irritation, and tears came. For all purposes, I'm a new driver and I still get twinges of nervousness when behind the wheel, and being in a new city, a new state just makes matters worse, so in my state of breakdown, I let loose a string of profanity, turned around, and decided to go back home. Screw a parking permit. About three, four blocks from my complex, I saw the sign for the university police and went to ask them where UPS was. When an employee told me the building was right next door (and not called ...

Turning Bad News into a Positive Move for Change

I received some news today. The stage was set for it three weeks ago, and today confirmed it. I have diabetes. Out of all illnesses you can get, diabetes has been #1 on my Please, Dear God, not that  list my whole life. I've had great aunts and uncles that had it and saw some of the more extreme effects of it, and wanted nothing to do with it, ever. Three weeks ago, blood work results came back. Sugar was pretty high. My doctor decided to schedule more blood work within a two to three-week span of time. I had that done this past Friday. Today, after smiling and talking with my bestie about my good talk with my dissertation chair, after declaring the completion of my dissertation, after excitedly telling bestie of new writing project; the call came. About the norm in a roller coaster life in which at 1:59 you can be on Cloudy Infinity and at 1:59:10, you can hear the thud and the crack of bones as you fall back to earth. Doctor told me the number was lower, but that...
