I grew up with Mr. Rogers. And I am not ashamed to to tell you that the gray in my hair means I watched his show back when there was no gray in his. I loved Mr. Rogers. I loved everything about his show from his silly opening song to his cardigan sweater and sneakers to the…

TToT – In The Silence
It is silent. Right now, my house is utterly and completely silent. It is a different kind of quiet than the one that exists here during the day when I’m working here alone. Then I hear the construction noises from the new development across the field. I hear cats doing cat things. I hear cars…

The Best Thing I Did Lately

FTSF – Time Enough for Important Things
I am a fairly cranky person. You know that character in Steel Magnolias – Ouiser? I’m her. Given that, you might think this post would come easily. Wrong. I sat for an hour last night trying to figure out what would work for this post and came up totally blank. It’s not because I’m…
