  • What Are The Chances?

    I’m not exactly sure just how acquaintances become friends but I do  know how they don’t become friends and as fate would have it, I ran into two of those people that didn’t make my friend list this past Saturday and each situation had me a bit baffled, asking myself, “What are the chances?” I…

  • The 1482 Mile Journey

    Don has had a rather interesting week.  He left early Monday morning for a job north of town and then took off for Wyoming that same day.  He got to his halfway point by Monday night and then finished the long drive to his destination on Tuesday only to find out there were some issues…

  • Betsy & Buzz

    I just finished mowing and trimming the lawn.   Did you notice there was no comma after the word lawn?  Today my blood pressure stayed normal.  I don’t have a headache.  I harbor no resentment towards the equipment I used and it took less than an hour of my time. I’m sure I have all…

  • He Is That Man

    Amidst a load of clean laundry ready to be folded and a doll that needs a dress and a very tired me, I decided to take a trip down memory lane and read an hour and half’s worth of emails Don and I sent to one another when we first met and I fell in…

  • Womanhood: The Graphic Version

    Often times I find myself entering into conversations that are fueled by a continuous string of thoughts  and after the fact, as I relive the highlights,  I find myself wondering if the subject originally presented had anything to do with the direction things headed when all those thoughts and memories came running up to the…

  • Missy, Molly, Max, Macie Pearl & Punky

    One of the most difficult parts of my divorce was the decision to leave and leave without Missy,  Molly, Max, Macie Pearl and Punky.  They were the only children I had but to everyone else they were just four cats and a dog.  I was planning to live with my mom for a while and…

  • I Waited For The Movie

    A few years ago I began reading “Fifty Shades of Grey” but it didn’t take long for me to  see where the story was headed and I lost interest.  I think it’s still sitting on the night stand in the bedroom I stayed in when I was living at my mom’s house.  Perhaps my life…

  • Washing Those Shades Of Gray Away

    Back when I was in my early 20’s I would venture to say I tried at least 5 different hair colors.  I got pretty good at the process but the day I chose to perfect “Auburn” is the day I said goodbye to hair color for 26 years.   It’s a rather sad story as…

  • Andrea’s Precious Soul

    I wasn’t able to birth babies but the bond I share with three of my nieces is one of the most amazing experiences I’ve ever enjoyed and I believe that what we share is the next best thing to actually bringing them into this world.  I’ve decided to share a story about each one and…

  • The Optimism Option

    My day got off to one of those starts that was, in my opinion, comparable to the feeling you might experience when a brick wall appears out of nowhere and stops you dead in your tracks.  You’d be kidding yourself if you said you didn’t have those days.  Everybody does and I’ve learned over time…
