Welcome to Collins Conundrum

Here we are barreling head first into another month, a new season of summer and the pull of longer days, humidity, moments in time. How are your moments? Are you soaking up the sun or soaking up the time clock? This whole being an adult and working looses it’s luster sometimes. Have you ever just […]

Another month comes barreling in like a freight trainLonger days, warm sun, nights and thoughts to refrain. The rolling mountains stand guard, leaves flowing, hidden paths, treasures await The sloping terrain, the winding back road like the curve of a hipThe flow around the curves is like a hand caressing each dip. Learning the curve […]

Saturday morning….no other feeling than sleeping in past the alarm. Waking up to a leisurely cup of coffee versus the need for coffee to get through the day. Hearing the birds morning song and the sun streams through the windows. How about your day? I know you folks with young kids are ready to knock […]

Hey you’all! How is everyone? I ask that all the time and I truly mean it. Life has been a whirlwind as always. We have a gas shortage going on and people are grabbing gas just like they did toilet paper a year ago! Moved my youngest home from college from her sophomore year and […]

Hey you’all. It is Monday again. How did it get here so fast? So as I am getting ready for work today I have a few thoughts rattling around (shocker I know). I heard a message yesterday watching a church service on line. It was just a quick statement but it made me think. He […]

A new month, time keeps rushing by. My mom always said that the older you get the faster time goes by. She was so right. This month is a birthday month for me as well. I am moving up that age ladder! I will be 53. That doesn’t seem possible! I feel like it was […]

So doesn’t it seem weird we call this good Friday? A day 2000+ years ago that Jesus hung on a cross. Sinless and blameless, yet He went through the pain and the mockery for you and for me. How can that pain and reading about it in our bibles and believing what He did because […]

Hope everyone is well as we are in this week before Easter. A holy week, a week that we can’t begin to imagine all those years ago. A lot of thoughts, as usual, have been on my mind. Think about Judas for a minute. He left the Last Supper to meet with counsel to turn […]

Hey there! How are you guys doing. March is almost done and April is coming around the bend. Time keeps marching on. So how are you really doing? Still hanging in there I hope. The pandemic continues, the debates about vaccines, masks, social distancing and the list goes on. How has it been one year […]

Good morning! Hope you’all are well during this crazy time in our world. How are the storms in your life? We all have them. We are either waiting for a storm, in a storm or coming out of a storm. This has been very true for my life. Yesterday we had bad weather here. Thank […]
