Moments in Time
As our children grow and become young adults, then parents themselves, there are moments of beauty that surface. My Shane was always an inquisitive sort. He loved to tear things down and see how they worked. I remember helping him carry a piece of equipment down to the basement, when he was about 11 yearsContinue reading “Moments in Time”
Gratitude
The sun is shining this morning after a very clear sky night! I was up about 2:30 and truly was amazed at the shadows in the yard. The moon was so bright once again, as it can be when the sky is clear of clouds, and it always stops to cause me ponder. I stoodContinue reading “Gratitude”
Am I becoming a cat …. ?
Each morning, like molasses on a cold winter’s day, I move slowly, thickly and carefully, warming up my sleepy body and waking from deep unconsciousness. I spend 20-30 minutes in bed nourishing myself emotionally, spiritually and mentally in bed before rising. I take this time to prepare myself to “be” in the world and liveContinue reading “Am I becoming a cat …. ?”
Patience
Dr. Wayne Dyer once shared how he believed he had a conversation with the divine source before his soul entered the vessel. He referred to this source as “God”. So, he says, when God asked his soul, “What do you want to learn when you go to earth?” Dr. Dyer says he answered, “resilience”. HeContinue reading “Patience”

The words seem to be pouring out of me lately, and my fingers are hungry to find the keys to the new laptop and splay these words on the page. As I am hungry to write, I am reading and listening/watching voraciously to books, podcasts and videos where I can learn from others what theyContinue reading “Creating your own shed show”
The door to the east…
Each day I learn and grow deeper into myself, and it is beautiful. Do you sit in the canoe on the surface of the lake and wish you could dive into the depths of your own heart? Today is the first of February’s three gatherings at the local libraries where I have set up andContinue reading “The door to the east…”
Empty Hangers
Empty hangers … Today I was looking in my closet for a certain piece of clothing. I was going walking and while it is brisk, I did not want my rain pants because they make noise. I wanted warmth without the noise. So I travelled along the hangers. No, no, no …. And then IContinue reading “Empty Hangers”
Alcohol free life
Today, is the day! The day where I can once again appreciate and love my life. I wonder when others rise from their beds do they jump up, using Mel Robbin’s Five Second Rule. This rule is simple and so effective. The premise is to count down from five to zero and then take action.Continue reading “Alcohol free life”
The New Year!
January 2024 …. I am stunned at this date! I remember well the turn of the Y2K and it’s baggage and concerns. I remember the 90’s with the padded shoulders and the 80’s with the hair beginning to grow bigger. My little Honda Civic that was so cute and my very first new car! AndContinue reading “The New Year!”
