My friend Jan
I haven’t told you about my friend Jan yet…
It’s all her fault…
Jan did it! (finger pointed away from myself, at Jan)
I can hear our husbands laugh and shake their heads now.
OK, here’s the background story… Read more

My Favorite Things…
Yes, I am singing Julie Andrews version…”These are a few of my favorite things…”.
I just loved that movie.
For a multitude of reasons, really. Here’s just a few…
#1…my sister Carol brought me to see it when it was released and it was the first movie I’d ever gone to in a theater!
#2…the singing….oh the singing…to be so carefree! Of course, I was really young and the levity of the story didn’t sink in, I was too enthralled by the singing!
#3…the scenery…mansions and mountains and cobblestone streets!
It’s all so lovely. Julie Andrews is lovely. They made life feel lovely.

The mouse, the Fudge Fluff, and Ronald
I’m a cheap date.
I really am.
Would I like the whole expensive dinner, dancing, a little blingy gift type of date?

I have a plan…
A plan is being hatched…
It involves my mother-in-law Barbara, myself, Tim’s truck, coffee and our local landfill.
I called her this morning and told her I needed a partner-in-crime.
OK, so it’s not really for crime…however my husband might equate it to a crime for me to bring home some of the treasures I find.
Does he complain? Well, no. But I get the look.
And if he’s being particularly patient, I don’t get the look, but I know it’s still underneath that kind face.
Deep down there’s an eye roll. I just know it. Read more
Winter Wishes and Snowflake Kisses
Boy does that sound like a sappy title or what? Yes, well, sometimes you just have to go with it.
The snow has been falling beautifully all day, adding up to a couple of inches on the ground. It makes me want to go out and make a snow angel.
Almost. Read more
