Hi there, my name is Tony Burgess (my friends call me T-Bird) from Chattanooga, Tennessee, USA. I am a believer, bleeding heart, idealist, and blogger. I'm married to Laura the Soup Diva and a dog dad to Frankie, Cody, and Mikey. Daily I work for a blood bank recruiting donors. My blog is where I chronicle and curate the sacred, serious, and silly things in my life. I am a member of The Episcopal Church. Thank you for connecting with me. Grace, peace, and love!

Something Personal, Something About Me

I try to be the best person I can be. As a highly sensitive person with accompanying self-esteem issues, I doubt myself a lot. Being a people pleaser makes me want the people in my life to be proud of me but I can’t do that without giving my heart and soul and body away. Also I am tired of doing the heavy lifting. I guess I just need to be a person who is valued for being who I am instead of being a person that is taken for granted for what he does for others. I hope this makes sense.

Vintage Christmas Toy Series #5

Rubik’s Cube is one of the most popular toys ever. It was first invented in the 1970s but seemed to get really popular in the 1980s. Many of us had one and it seems to be a toy that transcends age and era.
