I’ve never really thought of myself as gullible. In fact, I’m one who over-analyzes, questions everything, and NEVER shoots from the hip with a knee-jerk reaction. If something is questionable, I sense it more than know it and that kick starts the whole “think-everything-to-death” process. That, in turn, means that I am rarely surprised or… Read More An April Fool
Life can be hard! Sometimes it feels like everywhere we turn we’re met with negativity and challenge and are left wondering if the sun will ever shine again. It doesn’t help when we are continually bombarded with things that perpetuate anxiety, anger, and a sense of hopelessness. Even the strongest person will be affected over… Read More Clean Your Glasses!
I met Peter when I was all of seventeen years old. I had just graduated from high school and started my first job at our local university. He worked there too – in tech services, which at the time included managing events involving sound systems, visual presentations, and electronics. We ran into one another quite… Read More Teach them well
There is this amazing place I like to frequent. It’s open 24/7, totally free, conveniently located no matter where I am, and custom designed just for me. I love that I can pop in any time I like — for fun, to relax, for information, or for no reason at all. Its doors are always… Read More Pinterest & Me

Sure, there are many things… Read More My (Un)Bucket List
Call me a nerd – a geek – a throwback to weirdness. Whatever… I LOVE the old horror flicks and never more so than around Halloween. Now, the word horror is pure conjecture where the classics are concerned as there is very little to be horrified by. In fact, hilarity may be a better… Read More My Top 10 Favorite “Spooky” Halloween Movies
Of all the seasons nature brings, my soul is drawn to one. I feel my senses spring to life as Summer comes undone. My eyes behold a palette bold of trees in gold and red that burst with joy for one last song on leaves as yet unshed. Color is… Read More Autumn Senses
Its been a year now and I’m ready to tell the story. It’s rather lengthy, much like these past months, so pull up a stump and I’ll tell you a tale… Labor Day Weekend – nothing grand or exciting in our home. We sometimes plan a cookout or a backyard bonfire, but mostly its been… Read More The Labor Day Incident
Dear Lord I thank you for this beautiful day. It really was beautiful today, wasn’t it? And that breeze…fabulous coming through the windows. But, those WINDOWS – UGH – they need a serious washing! I’m out of ammonia. Sudsy ammonia – Gram always said to use sudsy. Trip to… Read More Bedtime Prayer from an INFJ Mind
Raise your hand if you DIDN’T have a childhood that included Little Golden Books! I would guess that very few hands are in the air, as generations of children can count them among their earliest memories. In the early 1940s, the idea to develop a line of children’s books that was colorful, affordable, and readily… Read More Little Golden Books
