Why Am I Still Here?

Other than a few cousins, it occurred to me, yesterday, these two gals have known me almost longer than anyone else. The three of us hung pretty tight, yesterday, on Mom Lydia’s 95th birthday. We were ready to throw her a big birthday celebration –after all, 95 years on this earth is worth celebrating —…

No Fear! You Only Live Once

It was the yellow Mustang convertible that I would have for a week while my car is being repaired, that energized the idea of the 3-generations (Me, my daughter and granddaughter) to take to the road. “The Road” was only around here in Frisco and over to Arlington TX, but we sure had a “Girls…

Welcome Home, Love!

After two weeks away, I was back home to T-Town, and saw that my yellow rose bush was blooming. I know it’s Spring, but, in my own little world, I like to think that it being in bloom was a special gift from my Sweetheart in heaven. Yellow roses were a big deal for us…

Happy, Happy Nan

Yesterday, Braden Wuerch, my 23-year old, first born grandson, flew into Austin to spend some time here with us. Happy, happy Nana! . Floods of memories, and lots of catching up on his amazing life.
