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…

Cobra Time
This week I have found some time to get back to my original project of the year. Yes it got hijacked a couple of times for some baby things, but it was worth it. Now I am working on some other charts for fun and to see what happens. It still has a bit more…

Deli-Style Food
A year ago when I was training for DaVita there was a restaurant behind our hotel I really wanted to try. My fellow trainee and I were in Illinois and it was the night before our last day there. We had made the deal to try that place for our supper. While I took a…

Imprinted Dates

Perhaps the believers watching thought of God’s divine intricacy and design of the heavens and the stars, but how many non believers thought about Him specifically! The lady lost me when she said millions…

The Eclipse That Brought A Country Solidarity
Have you noticed something today? The news was almost entirely at least for the first half of the day if not most of the day about the Eclipse. The divisions that have stirred the states were tempered down quite a bit. First thing this morning Trump reiterated his stance on abortion early. He had promised…

The Total Eclipse In Southern Indiana
RIght now our light is getting dimmer and it’s also getting cooler. It’s just about time for our Totality. Vincennes is where the totality of the 4 minutes will be seen which is 45 minutes south of where we are here. I have not noticed the traffic this weekend, but today will be the day…

Basement Finds
Lately I have been working on some cross-stitch pieces not baby related. These will possibly need to be framed unless I can figure one more option out. Until then, though, framing them may be easier. Upon my graduation from college my parents gave me a mat cutter. I had to learn as I did each…
