Did you notice? That is crazy cold outside. I just wanted to get that off my chest as I looked out this morning as the early dawn began early. The paradoxical feeling of brrrr and delight. For, I really love this time in January when the daylight begins its slow trek to longer daylight hours.Continue reading “Did You Notice”

You Just Never Know
I am constantly in awe of the world around me. Taking a walk with Maggie a few days ago, the day was beautiful. But so so brrrr. That’s a word, right? Brrr. Or is that just the ability to take the English language and alphabet knowledge and string some letters together. It does not matterContinue reading “You Just Never Know”
N O is not spelled Y E S
Or vice versa. How many times does one say no in the day. If I am by myself, do I? Well I do as my dog seems to need a no or two. She gets into things while I am gone out for a bit and I come back and find garbage bag contents strewnContinue reading “N O is not spelled Y E S”
I Can See Clearly Now
A few weeks ago I went to the eye doctor. It had been quite a while since my last check up. I guess you go along and put things off until such time as you cannot see. Literally. The fine print which seemed to be a good enough size for me to read off aContinue reading “I Can See Clearly Now”
Most Wonderful Time of Year
It is easy to get caught up in the hulla balloo as Christmas draws near. Maybe that is why the prep before the crazy wonderful insane frenzy of Christmas mourn is something to consider.

Its a Good Day

Okay So Don’t
Okay so don’t do it for goodness sake. What one might ask? Well it goes something like this. I did not have my glasses handy as being over 60 there seems to be a disconnect between small print and my eyes. I have to be real….it is not just the fine print any more. SquintingContinue reading “Okay So Don’t”
Seasoning
Going out with my sister was a blast. She is a story teller like our dad as she shares her life with me. She also is a crazy foodie like most of my family seems to be. I tend to go on the side of caution and bland. Mabe a bit of salt and pepperContinue reading “Seasoning”
Silence is Calling
It has been a long long time since I have felt silence. You know the kind where you are in the dead of winter and you step outside your door to the deck or porch to a sound and symphony of silence. Its like the quiet sound from the winter blanket of snow and frozenContinue reading “Silence is Calling”
Thinking Ahead, Just Chill
Holy moly. If you can only take a step back, maybe read a book or five, take a chill pill. Hold the train. Something. Anything. The thing is when you think ahead, the fret tree takes root and the worry and brooding becomes the fruit of the vine. The mantras and the Word made fleshContinue reading “Thinking Ahead, Just Chill”
