Happy Sunday, Journeyer, This past week I opened the microwave door to find my lunch bowl of oatmeal boiled over. Already running late, I could easily have gotten all upset about the necessity to now do a little cleaning before I returned to work. There might have been a second of irritation before I noticed the artistic patterns that formed … Read More
At the Intersection of Something Old’s and Something New’s
Happy Sunday, Journeyer! This week I’ve been a bit quieter than normal on all of my social media outlets, but I can honestly say it was for a great cause. One of my younger cousins got hitched on Friday and Warren and I came out last week to vacation and help my aunt and uncle with the preparations. Though there … Read More
Life is Too Big for a Bag
Happy Sunday, Journeyer! Today I come to you from atop a mountain that overlooks the beautiful Lake Michigan. Yep, we’re on the road again; this time a pleasure trip to visit family and attend a wedding. Yesterday my relatives took us to some local street fairs where we picked up numerous homegrown and handmade goods. You know the type of … Read More
I’ll Be Home for Christmas
Happy Sunday, Journeyer (said in the voice of Frosty’s “Happy Birthday!”) This afternoon I come to you from the passenger seat of a car that Fave and I rented for a quick road trip. But first, let me start from the beginning… As you know, I spent last Saturday and Sunday in a hotel, waiting for my son to make … Read More
Delta at Dawn
Happy Sunday-Monday, Journeyer! I type this post from a packed plane on Delta flight six-two-nine, headed for Atlanta. This day begins at an ungodly hour for me; my alarm set to go off even before the sun rose. But that isn’t the only fatigue that has settled into every pour of my body. Do you know that good tired we … Read More
Heating Things Up & Slowing Them Down
Phew! Is it ever hot and muggy on this Tennessee morning! Though I knew it was wishful thinking, I hoped that those dark clouds blowing in last night would have brought with them a little cooler air. Um, no. This morning’s air is stifling, muggy like a swamp. As I walked across the parking lot, wiling my mind to think … Read More
It’s a Small, Small, Microscopic World
I’m not sure how old I was the first time my family went to Disney World, but I do recall taking Fave and Beauty when they were toddlers themselves. Just like my parents had done many times over the years, Warren and I had taken our children to visit relatives living in Florida. I have fond memories of running through … Read More
Leading the Way
I took this photo of the staircase in Independence Hall, Philadelphia Phew, Journeyer, has it ever been a whirlwind week! Traveling has a way of putting sails beneath our time, and I’ve been hitting the highways and skyways for sure. After returning from Hay House’s writing workshop in Denver, I spent Tuesday finishing last week’s Happy Happens piece, getting it … Read More
Super Moments
The Superbowl. “Which team are you rooting for, the one with the white helmets?” That would be me, inciting chuckles from the avid football fans at this year’s SB party. This year we broke from tradition of hosting the gathering at our house, and though that is my favorite part of the season’s event—entertaining and having opportunity to break out all … Read More
Designs, Destinations, Devices, and Delight
We’re on the road, again. (queue music…) Our family minus one…soon to be minus two, once more… Beauty returns to college today. Big Guy has a soccer game two hours from home, a quick jaunt compared to our usual destinations. And as luck would have it, the field is on the way to the college, nearly half the five-hour … Read More
