Now I could have said Mother’s Day, but just couldn’t bring myself to do it. I’m been overwhelmed with the need to talk about some of the strong women I know. Sure, there have been famous ones blogged about by me and other authors like political figures, astronauts, doctors, presidential wives, even a celebrity or two,Continue reading “Happy Strong Women’s Day”

Edit, Polish, Fix, REPEAT
I hope everyone had a wonderful and warm holiday season, and you have thawed out. As you can see, we’ve had our share of cold already. So we are welcoming a little warming spell right now. But we’re not easily fooled down here. We know winter will return, but maybe not as harsh as aContinue reading “Edit, Polish, Fix, REPEAT”
Thankful . . . & LOVE AROUND THE TABLE
It’s already November. I have to be honest and say I’m glad to see the leaves fall. I really had kind of a rotten summer. Word to the wise: If you’re planning on having rotator cuff surgery (with complications, I might add), a little warning–it’s very painful and a much harder recovery than I ever expectedContinue reading “Thankful . . . & LOVE AROUND THE TABLE”
A Little Dreaming and Author, Linda Joyce
The other day, my husband, the talented pianist, was practicing a song from La La Land, “The Fools Who Dream.” I identify with that song. I am still, even at my age, one of those people who sees hope that all my dreams will come true. There was a time in my life when IContinue reading “A Little Dreaming and Author, Linda Joyce”
Remotely Controlled
CONTROL—everybody wants it. My husband, God love him, is a little bit of a control freak (she said nicely and with love), but in a good-hearted way. Me, I might be borderline, but hey, I know what I want and I usually want it right away. 🙂 My sweet dog, Bella, is even on thatContinue reading “Remotely Controlled”
Perspective – The Spice of Life
Happy Memorial Day! Please take time to honor all our Veterans who died for our country and the freedoms we enjoy today!! I just returned from a great vacation. Now, I have visited California twice before in my lifetime. The first time was the summer after my sophomore year in high school. My mother had the bright idea that separatingContinue reading “Perspective – The Spice of Life”
Talkin’ Mothers & Welcome, Erin Bartels
With Mother’s Day approaching, we spotlight our mothers whether they are still living or have passed on, and remember fondly how these women have impacted our lives. My mother who was a unique yet troubled woman, taught me life lessons I will never forget. I, being a mother myself, can only hope that I’ve been able toContinue reading “Talkin’ Mothers & Welcome, Erin Bartels”
I Choose, You Choose . . .
April is such a great month and quite eventful! This year, there was Easter, and of course, my birthday and coming up, my wedding anniversary. How cool is that!! We can also include Professional Baseball opening days (like the Braves in their new stadium). On the other side of the coin, there’s Income Tax Day and aContinue reading “I Choose, You Choose . . .”
For the Love of It!!
In my neck of the woods, nature has truly sprung! AAH CHOO! Yes, and there’s the green gunk all over the car. In the South, we deal with it. We don’t always embrace it, but we deal. Flowers are blooming, trees are greening. I’m blossoming, too—are you? To blossom means to bud, to flower, toContinue reading “For the Love of It!!”
March Madness
March is National Women’s History Month. Did you know that out of the 13 honorees in 2017 under the Theme of Trailblazing Women in Labor and Business, 5 of these women are from the southern states of North Carolina, Alabama, Virginia and Mississippi? Now these are some Strong Southern Women. When I think of March, I think of basketball – TheContinue reading “March Madness”
