what i learned in october 2016

November 2, 2016 by admin 40 Comments

I love this blurry image because my October was just that – A BLUR! October is one of my favorite months. I suppose it’s because I was born on the 14th or perhaps because I like all things fall. This month has been a whirlwind with Write 31 Days and a very intense time of… [Read More]

i worked for “the donald”

August 26, 2015 by admin 30 Comments

First and foremost, this is NOT a political post! I have strong political opinions but I will never share them here! Donald Trump, let’s face it, is a big thing in the news today – regardless of your political persuasion you must admit he is getting a whole lot of attention! In the mid-1980’s I… [Read More]

the gray matter(s)

  Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things. Philippians 4.8 50 Shades of Gray. I was not going to “go here” because I have not read the book nor do I have… [Read More]

I wasn’t sure I would participate in this but left a section open in my awesome new 2015 planner and notebook just in case I wanted to jot a few things down. When you hear a writer say something oxymoron like I just said, ignore it – just read on! Emily Freeman, a fellow North… [Read More]

WONDERfull!

Brian Hazeltine, a photographer in Palm Beach, Florida blesses my socks off with his awesome photography. I first met Brian, although I have never met him in person, when he posted photos on Facebook of surfers and my son, Michael, was one of the featured. I purchased a few photos from him and we have… [Read More]

muse

May 12, 2011 by admin Leave a Comment

Definition of MUSE – a verb 1: to become absorbed in thought; especially : to turn something over in the mind meditatively and often inconclusively 2: to think or say reflectively I am a serious muser (is that a word?). I’ve been accused of “thinking too much.”  On this page of my site, I want… [Read More]

So, this happened yesterday at home. Hubs was tend So, this happened yesterday at home. Hubs was tending his garden bed out in the corner of the common area and almost stepped on this Momma lake turtle, laying her eggs. He went away and returned hours later and found she had dampened the area and laid sticks on top! He framed it out in pic 3. 60 day incubation and then all those wee turtles will find their way back to the lake!!! How cool is that? #lakelife #tinyhousebiglife #fromfarmtoflat2tinyhouse
Yellow doors scream, "You are welcome here! Come i Yellow doors scream, "You are welcome here! Come in! Rest and peace are found within these doors!" 5 years ago this month we left this house, our home for 30 years. We raised one son here, and for A LOT of summers, the old squeaky screendoor opened and closed with the joy of grandkids. Fireflies,  a front porch bat, pussycats, dogs, goats, turkeys, and oinkers grazed the 14 acres. The ring of a blacksmith's anvil clanged for years as my husband designed and created beautiful ironwork. The best goat cheese hung from cheesecloth in its kitchen. Puzzles took shape on the old dining table, and Mexican Train domino challenges snaked along its patina'd surface. Blueberries were picked. Grapes  simmered and bubbled into homebrew! But seasons change. Kids grow and leave home. We grew and left. Happy memories.  Love grew there, and for that, we are forever blessed. Sweet, sweet memories.
