It’s Always A Nice Day

It’s Always A Nice Day

So. I stopped at Walgreens the other day & as I entered, I was welcomed by two pleasant souls who were happy to see me & yeah, they were employees of the establishment and are probably advised to be nice to the customers, but good for them ! After picking up what needed to be …

Finding Jesus

Finding Jesus

Although we smiled and nodded and bumped into each other quite a few times in this lifetime, it wasn’t until Mom died when I found Him, I mean really, REALLY found Him. Alone and grieving, with my music trying it’s best to brighten my heart, there I’d be, there I’d walk. And walk. And walk. …

and Yesterday’s Gone

and Yesterday’s Gone

Yep. We did. Open and unapologetic. Boom. We soooooo went there. And because we felt we could, we belonged, we deserved we christened it Our Day To Wallow.  And as we basked in our self pity, we acknowledged there are a zillion other people in worse case scenarios, but we didn’t care. Nope. Truth be …

Hey, Jesus

Hey, Jesus

It’s just me. Again. I know I’ve been boggled down with a whole bunch of 2020 confusion lately and I often come to you with a boatload of why ??!!??  or I simply hide from the persistent negativity and say nothing except, I’ll catch you later, we’ll talk about it soon … And I know …

wow, Life. WoW

wow, Life. WoW

Venus, a couple of stars and a smile of a moon greeted me as I looked out my back door this a.m. I took a few pictures to show and share but capturing such brilliance was near impossible. Please believe me when I say humbly gorgeous it most certainly was and if that ain’t THE …

The Puppy Wall

The Puppy Wall

Our high school graduation pictures don a wall at Dad’s house, all six of us, spruced up in our 8×10 inch frames and smiling oh so bright and although I cringe every time I glance at mine, there they’ve been, there they will stay. YaY Youth ! ♥ ! A doorway separates us elders from …

Stinky

Stinky

  Truth be told, they get an automatic pass because of their name. Stink Bugs. errr. how embarrassing I see them, like clockwork, every, single April and they really don’t bother me at all.
