Don’t you just love the month of April? The greening of everything? The pinks and lavenders in neighborhood yards? A blossoming tree capturing your attention as you turn a corner? My yard is coming to life as I speak. Every morning my dog, Bella, and I check to see what’s new. April is my favoriteContinue reading “An April Salute”

The Real Joy in Achieving a Dream
February is almost over – it’s too SHORT. My goals were too lofty for this little month. I do hope your checklist looks better than mine. But as I promised myself, I will be blogging twice a month and including guest bloggers once a month into the summer. Today, I am happy and grateful to introduce aContinue reading “The Real Joy in Achieving a Dream”
The Heart of the Matter
This February is full of special days–Groundhog day, Super Bowl Sunday, President’s Day, Valentine’s Day (can’t you see the line of husbands at Publix holding bouquets and a heart-shaped box of not-so-great candy), and next week Mardi Gras and beginning of Lent. So it’s a pretty cool month. (No pun intended). Thinking specifically about loveContinue reading “The Heart of the Matter”

SoContinue reading “Gratitude Ya’ll”

C is for…
Meet Buzz, named him after the Georgia Tech Mascot. He’s my Russian Blue, but he was born in Atlanta so he’s a very southern feline. He’s my constant. Do you have one of those? A constant (not necessarily a cat)? I’ve had pets throughout my crazy life. They have always been a part of me. Sara, theContinue reading “C is for…”
