It Is a New Year!

I am not one to make resolutions. How about you? My goal for the new year, and for every year for that matter, is to promote peace. If each of us can shine a positive light and be kind in our own little part of the world, then it is simple to see that this […]

Puppies!

Most people who know me would never think I would decide/agree/press to get a puppy. Over the years I have said it would be ok to get one, but don’t expect me to do all the care/cleanup/etc. Well… Bear… Bubba …We went for one and came home with two!!! They are Chow Chows, no less! […]

OMG…so much life!

LONG TIME since posting. This was going to be my diary…so much for that! It seems as though life gets in the way of keeping track of my life! Looks like I did a couple of posts in 2023. It also looks like I was trying to remain positive and did not mention here about […]

it’s really not that hard…

Today is Random Acts of Kindness Day. Say hello, send a note, give a hug, share your talents, share your time, share your wealth, just listen, smile at someone, hold the criticism, open a door, and remember to be kind to yourself too! How will you BE KIND today? Give it a try….you might just […]

l-o-v-e

The holiday season comes and goes. We spend so much of December celebrating, starting with Thanksgiving in late November. Then we are so exhausted, or perhaps excited, about the new year, that January comes and goes in a blink. Well, we can’t do one thing to change the past, so now we are at the […]

hmmmm….

Ahhh…..the holidays. I hope you have been enjoying them. Too much hustle and bustle? Too many good things to eat? Too many feelings of sadness? It gets all jumbled up, but we continue to celebrate…as we should. As the days on the December calendar wind down, I was thinking this morning about fundamentals. What might […]

keep your balance

Life is like riding a bicycle. To keep your balance, you must keep moving. – Albert Einstein I wonder how you feel about the statement above, credited to Albert Einstein. There are so many questions this quote brings up for me. Frankly, I write this blog in hopes of inspiring others to think and also, […]

Happy thanksgiving!

The quote below was part of an email I received today and it directly relates to Thanksgiving for me. This is my first Thanksgiving without my husband and that will be rough. However, there is so much to be thankful for and still hope for the future. Choosing to have joy is not naively thinking […]

Do you review?

Today’s question…do you write reviews? Why do I ask? Today someone replied to a review I gave that basically said if I really did like what was reviewed, they would appreciate more than 3 stars. This took me back. First of all, 3 stars is not bad. I get that it isn’t exactly good either, […]

talk about time

TIME…different things to different people at different times and places. Of course, you won’t wonder what made me think of time today. This is the weekend many dread….turning the clock back. Falling back into fall. A slower season, a time to relax a bit more, share time a bit more….but again, I digress. Of course, […]
