More Time…
with my Dad. That is not possible, so I just marinate in the memories. Two years before Dad died, which was last January, he got Covid 19. It robbed him of his ability to smell and taste everything except tomatoes for the rest of his life. He was not in the best of health for…

Happy New Year
What are your biggest challenges? Apparently, one of my biggest challenges is remembering to take pictures with my family on the holidays. It is regretful. Next year, there will be no photo that will pop up in my memories on my phone from a year ago. No photo memory of today – January 1, 2025.…

Personal Struggles
What positive events have taken place in your life over the past year? It is not easy to find much positive in my life this past year. My dad died in January. He was the glue that held our family together. In March, my husband had his 8th knee surgery and spent two months in…

Back in 1990
Name the most expensive personal item you’ve ever purchased (not your home or car). Our first desktop home computer that my husband built was the first most expensive item we ever purchased together. I was so impressed by his ability to “build” a computer. And I was equally impressed by the cost. *GULP* Over $5000…

Time is of the Essence
Do you need time? Yes! In fact, I was late to work this morning because I was not going to miss my opportunity to vote! I was the fourth person in line to vote at my precinct’s assigned voting location. It was a very chilly morning! Coats were appropriate attire It felt so good to…

Possessions
What would you do if you lost all your possessions? Popcorn is a favorite snack of mine. The smell of popcorn makes me want to watch 48-Hours, the True Crime Show. And, eating pistachios makes me think of The People’s Court. My husband and I went through a phase of popping popcorn and watching 48-Hours…

VP Debate
What skill would you like to learn? How to handle an unfair situation like what is taking place on CBS tonight. 😉 These moderators are anything but unbiased. What a joke! What ever happened to unbiased journalism? One of those men pretends to care for the American people. The other one really does. Common sense…

Virtual Fulfillment?
In what ways does hard work make you feel fulfilled? I despise (maybe too strong of a word… “dislike” is better) laziness. It is sad to see the potential of loved ones slip away in place of laziness. There is a difference between disorganization and pure laziness. A person’s house can be rather sloppy and…

Little League Soccer :)
What things give you energy? I’m sitting here this morning with my huband, mom, and daughter, watching my grandson and his teammates chase the soccer ball from one end of the field to the other. The ball slices through the cool crisp air until another young set of legs stops its drive. It brings a…
