Love=Happily ever after…or happy for now? (Part Two)
Hello all… back again with the topic of happily ever after…vs happy for now. I have studied many books on this topic. I have over-thunk it so many times… I keep coming back to the same thought. Happy for now is just not good enough. You as a reader have invested all that time and […]

🎄Favorite Christmas movies and favorite memories…❤️
Every year we watch certain movies that evoke Christmas for us. It does not feel like Christmas until we see and hear them. My favorite book of all time is “A Christmas Carol” by Charles Dickens… it is such a beautiful story about redemption and second chances… My favorite version of this book is a […]

Crazy times….for Black Friday sales or something?
It has never made sense to me why people trample each other for socks sales? I am all for good deals…at the expense of someone else’s life or injury…not worth. I can honestly say I haven’t been to Black Friday sales since I was a twenty something…I have since shopped on line for years. I […]

Happy Thanksgiving…be thankful for everything you have…🍁🍂🦃
In a time when chaos is everywhere it is nice to know there is a national holiday that encourages you to eat, drink and spend time with family. My second favorite holiday! Last year we were unable to celebrate due to my family being inflicted with covid. They were times last year I wondered if […]

Sarcasm…sun…and stories!
I learned early in life that I could defend myself with words. Particularly when using sarcasm. Work and home have been incredibly stressful lately. I find myself pissing people off at work everyday with vigor and enthusiasm. I probably should stop that. Laughter is the best medicine in stress filled situations at least it is […]

💕Love in the little moments…and snowstorms.
My daughter reminded me tonight of my first Valentine’s Day with her father. It was a snowstorm similar to this in 1994… I made him a mixed tape… of love songs that reminded me of him…I agonized over it. Then the phone call…praying I would say the right thing. That he would like me for […]
