On Your Mark…

     What? It’s 2015? Wait, wasn’t it just summer, just fall, just the holidays… In the whirlwind we can miss it… The uniqueness of each day gets lost in the 365 that turns into New Year… I’ve turned over the garden bed, turned over… Continue Reading “On Your Mark…”

Joy…Full, Joy…Full

     There is a song now 107 years old that starts off Joyful, Joyful we adore Thee, God of glory, God of love… With Christmas just six days away is our joy…full? Even in the absence of happiness, joy is to be our heart’s… Continue Reading “Joy…Full, Joy…Full”

Take My Breath Away…

     How can we find the hush even in the rush… Find quiet for our souls… Let our breath be taken away??? In the excited face of the impoverished child opening a gift – let us give that his face can shine… In the flurry of snow caught… Continue Reading “Take My Breath Away…”

EXTRAordinary…

      Ordinary doesn’t exist – I have never seen an ordinary sunrise, an ordinary dragonfly, or ordinary child… Have you beheld an ordinary starlit night, heard an ordinary thunderstorm, gazed into ordinary eyes, felt an ordinary kiss? How about an ordinary ocean wave, black bear, or geyser? Even in… Continue Reading “EXTRAordinary…”

Interior Decorator…

     Many years ago, when I was much younger and starting out with a home of my own, my husband and I were invited to dinner by a co-worker of his. As we pulled up to a very large and stately home, I couldn’t… Continue Reading “Interior Decorator…”

The Anniversary…

     31 Years is a long time, a short time. Sweet are the memories – young years spent planning, child rearing years spent smiling, remaining years spent hand in hand… Last year the longest married couple in America celebrated their 81st anniversary – they… Continue Reading “The Anniversary…”

Pick Me, Pick Me…

    I volunteered to work once a week at the ‘pumpkin patch’ – to raise money for kids for camp. Pumpkin patches aren’t really something you see in south Florida – we just import the pumpkins and pretend we live where its fall. Heck, we’ll… Continue Reading “Pick Me, Pick Me…”

Use the Good Stuff…

     Sipping iced tea from a wine glass makes it even better… Recently I served tea to my girlfriend and I in wine glasses. She thought it was wonderful. It reminded me of something: my grandmother always ‘put away’ her nice things to… Continue Reading “Use the Good Stuff…”

X Marks the Spot…

   We walked the beach at end of day – the time when light lingers long enough, but night is not too far. Purposing to see everything the shore had to offer. Not to just walk and come back as though it were checked off… Continue Reading “X Marks the Spot…”

Love In The Cement…

Some ordinary days turn extraordinary – especially when you have a dust rag in your hand… My afternoon was humming along, checking off the list: bathroom clean , floors vacuumed , laundry folded , dusting (underway). My hubby was being helpful by getting the… Continue Reading “Love In The Cement…”
