What Do You Put on Each Day?
Throwing that question out, might make you wonder what I mean. You might think I’m asking about putting on your clothes, your glasses, your deodorant, your cologne or aftershave, your jewelry or shoes or hat. This blog today was inspired by a dear friend who is one of my faithful daily blog followers. Not only…
The Chapters of My Love Story
The first chapter of my love story began when I was a little girl seeing the adoring love that my mom and dad had for each other. I witnessed their sweet affection for each other. In fact, my dad couldn’t keep his hands off my mom. “Roscoe, QUIT!” She would cry out when he was…
Lunar New Year 2023 – the Year of the Rabbit
“Happy New Year!” That’s what we said to our hostess at Pao’s Chinese Restaurant on Sunday. The moment we said those words, her eyes brightened. She said: “Oh, I have something for you!” When she returned, she had red envelopes for each of us. She explained: “This is tradition!” In my inquisitive manner, I had…
Goodness! Gracious!
My regular turkey and cheese sandwich goes to the next level with a little honey mustard. It goes from being average to really good. I don’t take a bite and think, “Wow, what great honey mustard! No, I take a bite and think, “That’s a good turkey and cheese sandwich!” The honey mustard is there in the background, making…
Let’s Be Different
Just go to social media or the news if you enjoy hearing ranting and raving about this or that. We’ve gotten so used to it that we consider it just “normal”. Me? I exit out of that atmosphere quickly! How “different” are we from what is “normal” to others? Some say that “It’s NORMAL to…

You’ve got to try a little kindnessYes show a little kindnessJust shine your light for everyone to seeAnd if you try a little kindnessThen you’ll overlook the blindnessOf narrow-minded people on the narrow-minded streets God repeatedly speaks about being “kind to one…
Win All Day
Pictures speak louder than words, but since I, being a widow with excess words to deliver, will provide this blog with words AND pictures. This first photo is of my beloved son by marriage (Staci’s husband) and his best “other” friend than Staci – his John Deere Tractor. His dream come true. His baby. His…
There’s Nothing That Says LOVE Like Chocolate
I have a confession to make. I LOVE chocolate so much so, that I should be a member of Chocoholics Anonymous! So of course, I chose the chocolate cake slice instead of the white cake slice that was lovingly distributed to our community in honor of Valentine’s Day. This love celebration started with a precious…
Well, What Do You Know?
That’s a phrase we might say when we’re surprised about something, like a vowed bachelor announces he’s getting married. If someone asked me the question: “What do you know?” It wouldn’t be because of a surprise factor. I’m not surprised at all that I KNOW God loves ME! I know that God is NOT dead.…
Consider Yourself Spurred On
Just after our warm summer morning of pickleball play at my community, we cooled off in the comfort of the huge trees close by. We had several good rounds of competitive play. It felt good to just sit and give kudos to each other for games well played. I love this community. Most are patient,…
