September 10, 2013 It rained last night! The morning air was cool when we set out at 6:15 for our morning “longwalk”. But also very humid. Today promises more rain. We’re at the tail end of monsoon season, and in fact, probably past it, but here it is! Every day we go for several walks,Continue reading “Keep those doggies walkin”

Monday Morning
September 9, 2013 Whoa! This morning’s post almost slipped me by! It’s my brother’s fault. Blame him! To be honest, there’s not a lot to say this morning. The house is a mess, so I guess I’m going to be spending some time today working on cleaning it up. I need to get some moreContinue reading “Monday Morning”
Tortugas Won
September 8, 2013. As I mentioned the other day, yesterday Scott and I joined a friend to hike up “A” Mountain… otherwise known as Tortugas Mountain… that’s Tortoise Mountain. The mountain itself rises about 600 feet from the land around it. But it starts at 4300 feet, and peaks at about 4928 feet. We setContinue reading “Tortugas Won”
Short Note Saturday
September 7, 2013. Mom died six years ago today. I have missed her everyday. Scott and I are off hiking today. (This post was written yesterday, and scheduled for delivery this morning. I’ve done that a few times this week.) Not sure how far, but the climb is about 700 feet. Watch for photos! PrayerContinue reading “Short Note Saturday”

I’ve also been contacted separately by two individuals, one my brother Bob who pointed out my writing. And theContinue reading “Thank you again”
We Have Contact
September 4, 2013 Thought for the Day When the Bible declares that we are made in the “image and likeness” of the Creator, it is affirming that cretivity is at our core just as it lies at the core of the Creator of all things. – Matthew Fox Well, this morning, I slept late. KindContinue reading “We Have Contact”
Lessons Learned
September 3, 2013 Gorgeous morning here in the Mesilla Valley. But the mosquitos are SWARMING. After my last comments on being eaten by them, I took certain steps and as a result have had much less trouble. Until today. And of course, this morning, as I pulled the door shut I realized I’d not unlockedContinue reading “Lessons Learned”
Creativity
September 2, 2013 Thought for Today Unless we are creators we are not fully alive. …Creativity is a way of living life, no matter our vocation or how we earn our living. — Madeleine L’Engle I sometimes wonder – in what way I am creative? I have mentioned before that I have no real gifts,Continue reading “Creativity”
Happy Birthday
Today is September 1, 2013. Mom would be 88 years old today. Happy Birthday Mom! My first thought today was of Mom. Well, ALMOST my first thought! My first thought, as I fought tooth and nail against consciousness, was “Shut up, Nikki, I want to sleep.” It was, after all 5:50. Then my second thoughtContinue reading “Happy Birthday”
