It is easy to lose hope, and feel discouraged. Sometime you feel you’re hitting a wall at every turn. Raise your hand if you relate. Miracles do happen. I wasn’t born last Tuesday…obviously since I’m at least 29… *sigh* but if you’re not careful, life can blur into a haze and you’ll forget to see…
My phone buzzed and when I answered, I heard the voice of one of my sweet nieces on the other end telling me that her boyfriend proposed to her the night before, on Valentine’s Day! I shrieked and happy danced and exclaimed and generally expressed my excitement and happiness. (the happy dance may or may…
Remember way back on December 31st when everyone was ringing in the New Year? Everyone was all like: 2020 vision and new decade-ish and sending out the old and bringing in the new. Excitement was high. I admit, I didn’t feel a lot of excitement. I really felt kinda hopeless. *sigh* 2019 was HARD. Sometimes…
Raise your hand if your house looks just a little bit “naked” after Christmas! Oh good! Me too. I mean, seriously, it’s like somehow Christmas got in the shower but forgot to take a bathrobe for the trip back to the closet.. like bare!

I left that bad boy at the door. We broke up! I mean I really didn’t have much to do with the break up and certainly couldn’t stop it when he turned and waved audios…at the stroke of midnight. 2019, was his name. And he wasn’t really nice to me or you either for that…
When we lived out at the farmhouse, each Christmas tree was decorated with a theme, but I never put decorations on this particular tree. Just lights, only lights, and I loved the cozy glow. In the night, in those pondering hours, all the colors, the sparkle, the different facets and reflections of light, made me think of the days gone by and…
Life’ll pick ya up. And gnaw ya around in the gnarly clutches of its’ jaws and then just spit ya right back out…quivering and helpless. It’s unfair and unjust… and when you’re at your limit…well, there ya are…at your limit! My brother shared a story at my nephew’s funeral about a man who was struggling…
“Do you play an instrument?” I asked. “No, I used to play guitar, but I forgot all of it, so I just sing.” she said. And THAT got me thinking…we ALL play something… ALL of us are an instrument…and we get to choose the sound it makes… positive, negative, loud, soft, mellow or steady like…
