Home Sweet Hurt

In a small town where it feels like home.

Home Sweet Hurt.

Hey y’all! In order to keep up with all of life’s happenings in the Hurt home, I’ve decided to start this blog for family, friends, and folks who stop by along the way! Jim and I moved from Virginia by way of Atlanta, Georgia to Laurel, Mississippi in the summer of 2016. We’ve welcomed the change and have come to embrace small town living with open arms.

We’re thankful for your interest in our lives, and excited to be sharing life’s adventures with you – the good, the bad, and the blah!

There was a tinge of guilt for feeling both overwhelmingly grateful and undeniably afraid. The … More Changing The Narrative.

Does anyone feel like, no matter how much they schedule, plan, and execute, they cannot accomplish everything they hope to in a single day? Even if I check off everything on my to-do list, I often look back on the day reflecting on who I should’ve listened to a while longer, who I could’ve reached … More Befriending Finitude.
