An American
I may have been offline for not quite 24 hours recently, yet over the past weekend I have had a lot of time to think. I mentioned seeing my Aunt’s gravestone. This is a cemetery I have not been to hardly at all just in passing I believe in all reality. There are a lot…

My Intuition
Sunday I was able to post a few articles. I don’t know what it was in the air that day, though it was a different kind of day for me. I am not trying to quote Elizabeth from ‘When Calls The Heart’, but a Sunday was a big milestone for me and my boyfriend. When…

The Cruise Ship… Sinking
I find it fascinating that the year I was born some intriguing historical events happened. Including when I was about 5 months old Robert Ballard had used some amazing technology and found actual wreckage of the Titanic. Talk about big news and it was something I was yet to know until I began learning about…

Grief Subsiding
If Sunflowers mean embracing a new chapter and finding happiness in life among loyalty and love then yesterday must have proved that for me.

Our 3rd Anniversary

A Week of Uncertainty
Life is uncertain. People, jobs and money all come and go throughout our lives. Ecclesiastes talks about this: another book written by Solomon in the Old Testament. Sometimes I feel adaptable and other times that I can’t even do anything for myself because of that very concept. Anyway it seems like a lifetime ago already…

Flowers
Until this week I didn’t realize how much Sunflowers were tied to love and weddings. I would never have thought this particular flower should be one to truly think about in my own bouquet or at least in the 3rd wedding Anniversary which may be something I may have to nudge in his direction if…

A Little Trip
In the next week my family will be taking a very short meander eastward of the state. It will be a nice welcome respite. However, once my niece heard we would be gone before she got here her face has stuck in my mind. We will see her before the weekend will be completely over…

The RMS Titanic
There are so many facets to my education of the Titanic in different fashions during my thirty some years. One of the early manifestations of learning about this ship wreck was a movie we watched up at the Alsman house. I specifically remember watching my Uncle Tony make one of my brilliant birthday cakes while…
