I have been kind of absent here. I had good intentions to get posts written but real life got in the way and then there is my dedication to procrastination. I have written dozens of posts in my head but somehow they never made it onto paper or on the computer. In a nutshell our […]
Letting go and finding kindness…It’s Thoughtful Thursday!
September 6, 2018 by
It’s been awhile since I have had the time to post on Thoughtful Thursdays. Feels good to be back and I am grateful that I have lots to share. Ironically I have been graced with many “thoughtful” moments from good friends, family and chance meetings with strangers who will never know how they touched my […]
It’s Thoughtful Thursday! What I learned from Betty’s weekly hair appointment!
July 27, 2017 by
One of my earliest memories is my Dad making dinner for us on Friday nights. He only cooked on Fridays because that was when Mom was at the hairdresser for her weekly appointment. I probably remember those dinners so well because Dad only cooked two things: Scrambled eggs or Tuna glop. I believe the ” […]
Our family secret should probably be kept secret..uh oh!
July 24, 2017 by
I need some humor today and maybe you do as well so thought I would share a little family secret I discovered while cleaning out the garage last summer. Every summer we clean out the garage at least once or twice. And EVERY time we find time to do it is on the hottest day […]
A little crazy yes but this “new” writing tool is awesome!
July 18, 2017 by
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 […]
So what do I do??
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 […]

Trying to overcome my swimming anxiety…
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 […]
My year of Wonder!!!
January 4, 2017 by
Every year for about the past 5 years or so I have picked a word of the year. One year it was “inspire”. My intention was not only to inspire others but to inspire myself. In 2016 my word was “focus”. I wanted to focus on what was really important in my life. I also […]
