Thanksgiving day and Mike and I are home with the dogs! It’s really a good feeling to have my adult children be in their lives and present within their groups.

Christmas time is here
When I think about Christmas time, I think about the Peanuts Gang standing around the tree singing Vince Guaraldi's "Christmas Time is Here". It makes me feel very nostalgic. As a little girl I loved sitting in my jammies, with wet hair down my back from my bath, watching a little tv with rabbit ears, … Continue reading Christmas time is here

It's Thanksgiving week. Yep, another Thanksgiving will come and go and I will try to get excited about all of the gratitude that I feel!

I have given a lot of thought to the friendships in my life and I have come up with the differences in "friendships of old and friendships of Facebook". This is a horrible time in our history in my opinion. I have … Continue reading Fallout
No More MLM Pills
Topics this week have been tough for me to nail down. There are so many options; COVID-19, mask wearing, political opinions, missing children, so much news, both local and national. For instance, are the rumors true that the City of Salina is really broke?? I hear rumor after rumor with little to no information to … Continue reading No More MLM Pills

I don't know if you have noticed or not, but lately my writing has been lax. Not really just lax, but few and far between. This happens to me when I feel completely overwhelmed by life and the sheer amount of topics that are weighing heavily on my mind. There is no doubt that it … Continue reading Today is your day to think
