Before you think I have totally lost it read the whole post and then you will “get it”! So one of the things my husband and I love to do is go to auctions. Sometimes we buy stuff sometimes we don’t but it’s usually a good time and we see some interesting things. I go […]
Unpacking my suitcase and my heart…
June 12, 2017 by
I totally unpacked my suitcase today. I just dumped it out on the floor. Socks, shorts, pj’s, underwear, shirts,loose change and little pieces of trash spread in a not so artistic heap on the rug at the end of my bed. I went to the bathroom and dumped my other bag and watched my makeup, […]

May 15, 2017 by
I imagined this scene the other day where I was at a dinner party and someone asked me ” So what do you do?” In my somewhat twisted mind that is a bit of a loaded question. I could answer everything from “well I walk my dog everyday” to “I’m a nurse” to ( if I […]
My Year of Wonder Vs. My Year of Sadness

January 10, 2017 by
Yes I have swimming anxiety. Not the kind that makes me fearful to go into the water. As a matter of fact I’ll be the first one to jump in the deep end with my grandkids and the last one to get out. I love the water. I hate the water. Wait..what?? It’s true. If […]
The Two Things Carrie Fischer and I have in common!
January 4, 2017 by
The world lost a unique individual last week. Like many of you I have been following all the news posts about Carrie Fischer’s life, and if it wasn’t enough that we lost her, then her mother, Debbie Reynolds, left us as well. The first thing that surprised me about Carrie was her age. I actually […]
