Broken Bones, Broken Hearts and Broken Promises…

After a bit of encouragement today from a lovely group of bloggers, my mind started to once more formulate something to write. It has been three months since my last post. I broke a promise to myself to be more consistent in writing. I was determined and I did not see it through. I realizedContinue reading “Broken Bones, Broken Hearts and Broken Promises…”

Crumbs…

You know that pathetic plate of Christmas cookies that linger on your counter top on the 26th of December?  You know what I mean…  those hard sugar cookies that still look edible, but, you know you could chuck them into the woods and knock out a bear one hundred feet away?  Yes, those cookie crumbs. Continue reading “Crumbs…”

Looking Back…

In November, I had great plans for writing about our Thanksgiving visit with Little Man and his folks.  I took pictures and I may still use them and write about them, but, somehow, time flew by and nothing was written. I had a wonderful holiday season.  I was so busy making memories that I didContinue reading “Looking Back…”

It’s a New Year…

Yes, it’s the third day of this new year.  No, I haven’t been celebrating for the past four days.   I am just now getting around to reading blog entries and deciding to write. I have read blogs talking of new starts, new hope, blank slates.  All of them poignant and encouraging.  To be honest, thisContinue reading “It’s a New Year…”

Looking back…

Many of the news outlets, media outlets, magazines are doing a review of 2013.  The most read stories, the most followed celebrities, the stories that shocked us, the cutest animal photos, it goes on and on. Even my Facebook page has a button to push for my year in review.  It shows the photos that IContinue reading “Looking back…”

Out with the Old…

We live in a small neighborhood, there are two roads in this subdivision and there are 37 houses here.  So, when I walk the dog we walk the entire neighborhood. This morning as I walked onto the porch I could hear the wind.  I love days like this.  The neighborhood has tall pine trees, oakContinue reading “Out with the Old…”
