Goodbye 202-1
The cold is creeping in and after a 70 degree Christmas, I suppose it’s time. What better way to end/begin a year with an Arctic blast of -27 F?! The cold may just freeze me in my tracks but the “cold” can’t stop my progress!! Before I delve into this blog, I want to put … Continue reading Goodbye 202-1
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
Quick
I require a lot of hugs! I require hand holding, hugs, affection and to feel like I’m still useful. This is what fills my heart and literally fills my tank. My blood pressure goes down, my dopamine level goes up and I feel like I can take a deep breath. I feel like I’ve been … Continue reading Quick
Today is your day to think
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
CAN’T TAKE THE HEAT ANYMORE
I find notes all around my house which is actually kind of ironic given that I can seldom find any paper to write on when I need it. Today I was on the phone with my friend, Mary, and I find several notes that I had taken during one of our many phone calls! We … Continue reading CAN’T TAKE THE HEAT ANYMORE
Remind Me, It’s Christmas…
I have been yelled at twice today. I am overly cautious about the way I talk to vendors and customers on the phone. My gravelly voice is often misinterpreted for being "short or cross" so I intentionally try to corral that impression! (insert eye roll) Today I was yelled at for no reason and still … Continue reading Remind Me, It’s Christmas…
Fourth of July 1945
My Dad loved the Fourth of July. The only person who might have loved it more would have been my Grandfather. He was wild about the chance to celebrate (he was wild Irish) and even more to light explosives. When Dad was a kid the Fourth meant that they were going to "the Farm" to … Continue reading Fourth of July 1945
29 and Counting (and I don’t mean kids)
When I am working my ''real job" and the connection goes out, it gives me a chance to pester my readers with another blog!! Today began like most. It's a well known fact that I don't sleep well, so I tend to sleep with my dad's t shirt wrapped around my head and eyes to … Continue reading 29 and Counting (and I don’t mean kids)
Where is Your Faith?
God, Creator of the Universe, Higher Power, Divine, Source Energy, call it what you will, we are connected! We are never disconnected from this Love of God unless we choose to be in a living Hell. I believe this. I love this! But sometimes when life beats me up, I need a huge reminder. My reminders come from people who really do love me. Today's blog brought to you by my friend Mary. I thank her so very much for her wise words and her insight. Today she says, "It's not about getting what you want, it's about patience."
