September 6, 2013 The other day, in my post on Creativity, several of you weighed in via Facebook, and 1 comment to my post itself, identifying what you felt were areas in which I was creative. I’ve also been contacted separately by two individuals, one my brother Bob who pointed out my writing. And theContinue reading “Thank you again”

Monsoon
Life in New Mexico is, for the most part, settling down. Each room is close to being how the “final product” will look. There are pictures to hang, of course. And a few frames to purchase. And in spite of our best efforts, we brought too much stuff with us, so we’re going to haveContinue reading “Monsoon”
Taking a Break
Last time, I wrote about the current of time accelerating. Since then (May 17) Scott and I’ve been swept along like twigs on a river, heading for the cataract! On June 3, Scott and I both worked our last day at our respective employers. June 4th we began the mad dash to both pack ourContinue reading “Taking a Break”
Family
What a wild couple of weeks it has been since last I wrote. And the title of today’s post summarizes the past 3 weeks; these weeks have me thinking of family today. My life has been blessed by family. I have friends who never speak to their family. I have friends whose families can onlyContinue reading “Family”
It’s Time to Catch Up
I see that any pretense at posting regularly this year is shot! Over three months since my last post; and before that last post it had been 44 days for the one prior to that. It’s hard to believe that even part of me still harbors a desire to be a writer. Yet, I do.Continue reading “It’s Time to Catch Up”
Tactical Moves and a Request
Hello all. It’s been about a month, now; a busy month. Scott and I have been struggling to get the new bath done, and we ARE making progress (I tell myself), just very slow progress. And it’s tiring progress. It’s amazing how much each weekend takes out of me. The foot is slowly recovering. ThisContinue reading “Tactical Moves and a Request”
Up to speed
Hi. It’s been an eventful two weeks since my last blog entry. No deep thoughts for you all this time around. There is a ligament that runs most of the length of the bottom of our feet called the Plantar Fascia. When this ligament is overtaxed in some way, it becomes inflamed, and this conditionContinue reading “Up to speed”
The Serenade
God knocks, calls, serenades us, but doesn’t necessarily intrude unless we desire and consent to intimacy. -R. Jay Pearson I get a mental image of God standing outside my window, singing me love songs… and me sitting all aloof in my room, ignoring the noise outside. Wondering why God has withdrawn intimate contact. Wondering why I’m strugglingContinue reading “The Serenade”
Spirit-Journey
Is there anyone who is not aware of the metaphor that our life is a journey? That metaphor pops up so many times that really it’s lost any punch for me. “Yeah, yeah, yeah”, I think to myself. Tell me something I DON’T know. Or perhaps, I hear statements like “The destination is the journey”.Continue reading “Spirit-Journey”
Wacky Cake, Revisited
Well, I think I’ve done it. This evening, I set out to try baking a Wacky Cake again, and I think maybe I got it right this time. We’ll know soon, when we have dessert! There were SOME issues with this one. To begin with, I couldn’t find a 9″ X 9″ cake pan, onlyContinue reading “Wacky Cake, Revisited”
