From Sinus Suffering to Bunny Bliss: How I Survived the Holiday Hustle | Random Ramblings By Tina Martin


I don’t know about you all, but my Monday was doing the Monday Mojo like a true champion! Can I get a high-five? 🤚 Here’s what I learned from this thrilling start to the week… actually, wait! I just did a full brain reboot and forgot my sage wisdom. It might’ve been hilarious and enlightening, or maybe just my best impression of Dora the Explorer. “We did it! We did it! Yay! We did it!!”


So here’s the scoop: I tackled that pesky sinus headache, saved the day, and conquered my to-do list like a boss. Then off to the grocery store I went, only to return home with a bag full of goodies and another sinus headache—because why not? Tomorrow is a fresh new canvas, and guess what? A brand new list, too!

Whether you're dodging crowds in the stores or feeling like your whole day has been derailed by sinus woes, remember the real reason for this fabulous season: chocolate bunnies, tie-dyed eggs, and frilly dresses are just the icing on the cake. Give Love. Show Love. Be Love. That old saying? Absolute gold! Why? Because those little words pack a ton of truth.

Yesterday has exited stage left, and today is our main act. Deal with it one delightful hiccup at a time. And let’s not forget about tomorrow; it’s already got its own set of troubles waiting! So breathe in that pollen-packed air, bask in the sunshine, and admire the beautiful vines and flowers. Stay grounded in today until the curtain falls! 🌸✨

Mysterious Monsters in the Bayou: Eyewitness Accounts of Bigfoot Lurking in Central Louisiana

Image
Written by Ken Hulsey. Though I couldn't find an account of a Bigfoot sighting in the town of Lecompte, the big hairy fella has definitely been lurking nearby. Indian Creek: 15-minute drive from Lecompte: BIGFOOT- 2 Encounters Made a Believer of Pineville Man By Andrew Griffin The Town Talk They are hairy, tall, and usually smell bad. They are elusive and mysterious and are known by different names throughout the world-Yeti and Yowie, Sasquatch and Skunk Ape. In the United States, these enigmatic primates are primarily known as Bigfoot. Some people believe in Bigfoot creatures, and some do not. Scott Kessler of Pineville is a believer. Since he was a young boy growing up in rural Rapides Parish, Kessler has had an obsessive fascination with Bigfoot, mainly because he says he has had two encounters with the hulking ape-like beasts. His first encounter with a Bigfoot was in the mid-1970's. He was camping with his family near Woodworth in the Indian Creek area. Late one nig...

Star Wars: Mark Hamill - Hollywood Foreign Press Association Interview

Image
Mark Hamill Talks About His Experience Making Star Wars From a press conference of the Hollywood Foreign Press Association – By Yani Begakus Mark Hamill – With all the merchandising that’s going on, I really wish they would publish the original screenplay for STAR WARS. It is so thick with ideas – more descriptions and more of everything than was in the movie. There just wasn’t time to get it all in. Yes, it is very simple, and people say there is no storyline – just bad guys chasing you because you have something they want. On one level, that’s true; on another level…you know, even though I am ostensibly the hero, George Lucas has given me a menagerie of supporting creatures – animal, vegetable, and mineral – and everybody’s working together. Men working with machines, working with rodents, working with whatever…I think it’s terrific.

Returning to the Lair of the Fouke Monster - The Legend of Boggy Creek and Beyond | Ken Hulsey

Image
I, like many others, first became fascinated with the infamous "Fouke Monster" in the 1970s when the film "The Legend of Boggy Creek" was released in theaters and drive-ins across the country. Although I didn't see the movie until it aired as a Saturday afternoon feature on a local TV station in the 1980s, the original trailer had a lasting impact on my young and impressionable mind—it scared the crap out of me. A big, hairy creature reaching through windows to grab young girls (the Fouke Monster doesn't hold a candle to King Kong), girls screaming, guns firing, people chasing the monster, the monster chasing people-all set in what looked like the creepiest place on Earth: Boggy Creek. I hid under my bed until I was ten!

The Miracle Is NOT the Boat | Step Out of Comfort and Into Calling | Ascend with Pastor Steve

What if the miracle you’ve been praying for… isn’t where you’re standing?  In this powerful and deeply personal testimony, I share the moment that changed everything—from a kid who didn’t even want to be in church… to stepping into the calling God had on my life.  I didn’t grow up chasing ministry. I didn’t feel ready. And for a long time, I felt hidden. But one night, sitting in the nosebleed section of an arena, I heard a message that would mark my life forever:
