Dinner With An Old Friend
Do you have one of those friends who you can pick up with no matter how long it’s been since you visited with one another? The one that feels like a well-loved cozy sweatshirt? Meet an old and very favorite friend…

A Triple Headache
Say hello to my three little headaches, fondly known as Rotten Cats One, Two, and Three. Kidzilla and I are attempting to grow sunflowers and Gerbera daisies. The Rotten Cats think they are kitty snacks. The Rotten Cats are wrong. Very wrong. On a positive note, please notice the vacuum cleaner marks on the side…

Snack-Sized Wisdom
I love quotes. I love words in general, but quotes are the best. When I was a kid, I read every single “Quotable Quotes” section in the Readers Digest every single month. Loved them. I still love quotes. They are like snack-sized bites of wisdom. Need a quick fix? Have one. Need more? Keep going…

On Burdens, Strength, and Balance
No, I have not abandoned my blog. Honest. I have not left the country, joined the French Foreign Legion, won the lottery, or found a vacancy in a colony on the moon. Kinda feels like it, though. I’ve been feeling a bit like Dorothy, whirling about in the cyclone of life.

Relatively Useless Skills
It’s been a week full of the stuff of life around here. Pretty exhausting stuff. I’d love to be transforming the many things in my head into fantastically entertaining posts, but the demands on my brain have been elsewhere. As you can plainly see, I have not even attempted to come up with a more…
