Less for More
This thought came to me while I was in the shower this morning. I am old enough to remember when purchasing a bar of soap meant it was a rectangular full-size bar of soap. The middle was not scooped out on the top and bottom of the bar so the company selling the bar could…

Makenna’s Post
SPiNNiNG ViSiONS is one of my favorite blogs. The way this 21-year-old blogger weaves her words together to form beautiful descriptions of deep thoughts, feelings, and opinions has me looking forward to the next post, again and again. The wisdom if her words is far beyond her years. Thanks, Makenna, for creating a blog that…

Tails up?
What was the hardest personal goal you’ve set for yourself? This is probably not the hardest personal goal, but it is a challenging one… to journal and/or blog every day. My full-time job gets in the way sometimes, but I hope to write and blog as often as I can…. My sister works in the…

Bad Day, Good Day
I woke up late this morning, rolled slowly out of the king-sized bed in my 4th-floor hotel room, and took my time getting ready for the day. It was a slow stroll down to the restaurant for the breakfast buffet, which I was looking forward to eating before heading over to the hospital to spend…

Why? Evil.
It is difficult for me to write about anything uplifting this morning as I listen to the news this morning. The families of hostages taken from Israel are pleading for their loved ones’ return. A son-a happy, caring young man; a 66 year old mom; a mother-a nurse; an army son serving on the border…

Shortcut – How did that work out? 😳
It is a good thing Google Maps took us a shorter way to get to the hotel tonight. It usually directs us to get off at exit 304 and meander our way through town until we finally arrive at the hotel up on the hill around the corner and several blocks away from the hospital.…
