JANUARY 17, 2022 So, how’s the weather at your house? Ah, cold enough for you? Brrrrrrr. At my house, down here in the south, snow fell on us. We do get a bit of the white stuff every now and then. The schools close because the counties won’t let buses try and maneuver on theContinue reading “BLAST OFF!”

What a Character!
Hi there! How’s your Autumn going? Mine is great and busy–a lot of sitting in front of my laptop. Right now, during this month of Gratitude, I’m so thankful for my family’s health in this time of strange viruses. I hope and pray your family is healthy. I’m also thankful for the new piano studentsContinue reading “What a Character!”
SIMMERED FOR FLAVOR
Thanks for sticking with me through this long, hot summer. In June, I underwent a hip replacement, which put me out of commission for a while. I’m doing well and back on track with the publication of my book, RELATIVE CONSEQUENCES. Now that I’m ambulatory, as they say, I’m actually cooking again. My poor husbandContinue reading “SIMMERED FOR FLAVOR”

Tearing off the Tag
I was born in Savannah, Georgia. You just don’t get much more southern than that, right? As a child, I was expected to act a certain way. It was like I came out with one of tag like the one attached to a pillow (you know that says you’ll be prosecuted under the law if you yank itContinue reading “Tearing off the Tag”
A Heartfelt Welcome to Normandie
Happy Valentine’s Day! Do they still make those little candy hearts with the sayings on them? I never got into those, even as a kid. Personally, I thought that candy should taste good no matter what. And, I didn’t like those hard-to-bite-into types. First of all, they weren’t made out of chocolate and we allContinue reading “A Heartfelt Welcome to Normandie”
Part One: Another Strong Lady, Straight from the South
I’m back… I’m sorry I was gone for the last month and a half. As I mentioned before, I was in the process of packing and moving. We, that is, my husband, my dog, my cat and I are temporarily housed in a “suites” hotel and things are cramped. Actually, the animals have better copingContinue reading “Part One: Another Strong Lady, Straight from the South”
Part Two – Interview with a Strong Southern Lady
So, are you hot enough? I can’t believe we’ve had no reprieve in two months here in the South. I’m ready for fall. Bring on football, gold and reddish colored leaves, and cool nights. I’m in the middle of downsizing. Yes, it’s horrible. I think maybe it’s human nature to hoard everything, memories, stuff weContinue reading “Part Two – Interview with a Strong Southern Lady”
Why She Writes About Women – Welcome, Amy Rivers
So, to quote a former late night television personality, “How hot is it? It’s so hot, chickens are laying hardboiled eggs.” Yep, I don’t have to tell you that it’s hot down here in Georgia. Even my pup, Bella, won’t stay outside very long. She lies in the mulch where it’s cooler on her belly forContinue reading “Why She Writes About Women – Welcome, Amy Rivers”
