the Life and Times of Miss Madison

 As of September 4, I no longer have the right to use my domain. If I put it in search I would get a 403. Why is that? Because I messed with the records. I had transferred my domain over to NameCheap, and ever since that day, I could not use ruthiemadison.com. It started out with one simple goal: Start my first newsletter. I heard about MailChimp so I used that website. However, I had one issue and that is "how do I tell my subscribers to check their spam folders?" I couldn't find out how. I asked in a group and a member said I should try mailer lite or convert kit. The problem with these email platform places is they require private emails so I went to Namecheap purchase a private email, and that's when my nightmares happened. Who am I to change DNS records? I was warned, but I paid no attention and now its gone and weebly puts  a a light pink banner on my editor page saying I need to resolve an issue. What happened to my domain? I never should have listened to this

 God's word says that we are not to speak evil of dignitaries, so I will do my best tp speak neither good or bad about Governor Newsom. Instead I will speak the truth. I am not alone. Many of Californians are suffering from Governor Newsom's Draconian lockdown. As I said in another blog, he wanted the church to open last. It did, but he put conditions on it" No more than 100 people may attend church and not long after that, after he had released prisoners and accepted Mexicans patients into our hospitals, he locked down our churches. Schools remain closed for in person learning meaning I am still unemployed and many students will not receive the education they need? Why? Because parents has to work. Some students live with a single parents\ and he or she has to work. Small businesses aren't doing well. I wish people would wake up.  California did not elect a new governor, they elected a dictator. Once he heard that there is a petition to recall him, he strikes again. H

 We all know the story of Adam and Eve. God told his new family to stay away from that one tree. He strictly warned them that if they didn't they could die. Up to that point, they had no problem doing what he wanted. They had a close relationship with God. I believe they saw him face to face or why had they hid themselves when they realized their nakedness. Or maybe just hearing his voice was good enough for them. Nevertheless, they had it all.  Have you been there? God blessed you with a good life. You had a great relationship with his Son. You have tasted and seen the goodness of the Lord. What more could you ask for? In most recent news, believers all over the world had been there, but somewhere along the line, they questioned their salvation. Some even walked away from God. They couldn't stand the pressure.Even after all God had done for them, it wasn't enough. God, are you really there?   I can't say I know the reason for this, but as one of my friends pointed out,

On social media, there are those who say that anyone not wearing a mask is selfish. I've seen a friend who shared a post from a page called Naked Jesus. (Hmm). I'm going to take that as a no no site as I wouldn't want to envision my savior as naked. (He almost was that way on the cross, but not completely.) I read through her post and noticed what they thought f those who say "I don't fear it so why should I?" to meaning I don't care about your health." Excuse me, but is in there anywhere in the Bible where people wore masks around people contagious disease? Most often these people were ostracized. They have be outside the city for a period of time. THEY NEVER IMPOSE ON THE HEALTHY TO PROTECT THEMSELVES WHILE THEY (those infected with the contagious disease) LIVE IN THE CITY. So shouldn't  those who are sick stay home? Why make the healthy stay home? My sister and I never traveled outside the U.S and we normally keep to ourselves, but of course, t

Many people accept wearing a mask and social distancing the new normal. Not for me. We need to stop living in fear, stop taking precautions because we have never done that with the swine flu or any kind of flu. Many of my friends are forced to wear a mask to work if they want to keep their jobs and some of us have asthma or other breathing issues. There must be another way! Didn't Paul write that we should not conform to the patterns of this world? Do you see President Trump wearing a mask? And when will people open their eyes? They have allowed those in "position" to control their social movements. They tell me they are doing what it says in Romans 13, but my question is who told them they need to wear a mask? As far as I am concerned that is what the democrats wants. Have you noticed how slow the democratic governors  were to reopening their states and once they do it is with conditions? I live in California, and unfortunately, the governor is Nancy Pelosi's nephew.

With summer approaching, you would think the requirements to wear masks would slowly dwindle away. Not so. Just today, my sister entered a clinic and they gave her a mask to wear. I  understand that about medical facilities, but stores? There is so much fear in the world that it's sad. Even among Christians, they wear one. I understand if they are not healthy or that their employer requires them to wear it, but if you are healthy?  And what about other places? One place, I hope that it doesn't require are schools. I'm sorry, but I think wearing a mask is overdone. The virus can't survive in the heat. I don't see teachers standing in front of the classrooms wearing a mask. Do you know when you speak from a mask, you sound muffled? And teachers usually teach from a distance. Maybe not 6 feet, but at least with in a couple of feet. I don't fear the virus. Here are reasons why I won't wear a mask. You can disagree, if you want, but it won't change my mind: 1

Never in all my life had I ever seen so much hate for our country and in our president, but what saddens me more is the view of some Christians who don't follow Q, but their own beliefs. Oh, I'm not saying that we shouldn't follow Jesus, but how many people are looking at what's going on and think Jesus is coming any minute when the time has not come for us to go? I posted on my Facebook wall about how God is in control. I posted a link about Illuminati and already people are acting its going to happen. Jesus is going to rapture and the NWO begins. Of course I know that. The Anti-Christ will usher that in and I bet he is one Illuminati's tools. I have my belief who I think he is, Some already figured it out and some thinks its Donald Trump. Wrong again.  But it's not for us to know. We should be going about our Father's business until Jesus comes. And whether or not, you believe we will experience the judgments or that they will implant a chip, we should not

     As my life start to change so is my website. People rarely hire me to design a cover anymore and more focus on my author's life. I still sell premades I have on hand, but I won' turn up as many as I used to. So the question is how do I draw traffic to my website for readers? My views are little. I used to get many, but since I stopped designing premades, I stopped adding new covers.    I decided it was time for a revamp, but somehow I was not satisfied. I needed advice and suggestions. I got some from group members, but one person suggested I hire my editor. Wrong move. She wants what I don't have. I have spent too much money already and I need what I have for my books.  So if you want to keep updated, I will be using blogger. My author's blog is  The Writings of Miss Madison  If you want to check out some of my premades, you can check out my pinterest link  https://www.pinterest.com/rmadison1967/madison-designs-book-covers/   or you can visit Madison Book Cover De

I wish that people would understand what it is like in a social setting. Many think an introvert can change, but just like a leopard can't change his spots, neither can I change who or what I am. And people overlook it or even dismiss it. Introverts aren't anti-social, but they like their alone time and they feel lost in a crowd or awkward. I group of in a family of introverts. Both my parents were socially awkward. My father was a loner most of his life and he got lost in his own world. Having a family to care for wasn't easy.. He grew up during the time of depression and I learned that his own father considered him a dreamer. At my father's memorial, my aunt shared about a time when he would go off to be alone, to find himself. And my mother? She grew up without parents. My grandmother died as the stress caught up with her for taking care of grandpa had weaken her immunity and the flu that laid dormant in her body woke. So for all my mom's and uncle's life, th
