Martin Luther King Day
This is a day meant for reflection of this man’s life. Growing up I did think of this day as a Birthday present for myself. It has been on my birthday and around it most years. I enjoyed the days off from school. Dr. King’s “I have A Dream” speech has been ruminated ever since…

A 6th Birthday Card
This card, fortunately, actually has a year written on it; 1995. Aunt Carol wrote it down when she signed for most of the family. Jeff is ironically not on the card, but he’s in the photo down below. He served in the Navy for a time, I’m not sure what years, but could have been…

I’ve Noticed…
During Christmas I made the Cookies and Goodies. It’s fun to do and it’s also a tradition. It makes Christmas feel more Christmassy.

A Funny Frustrating Night
Last night ended up being chaotic and a tiny bit funny. Unfortunately a little fur creature was in the bathroom yesterday. We have three bathrooms and I can say it was not mine. Dad had apparently declared it ‘boiled’ when he himself left for work. Once he was gone it was quite certain the thing…

Not Everything Is Okay
Do you have trouble admitting you don’t have all the answers? I’ve never proclaimed to know everything. Yet there are times like this week I feel drained. I know how to combat depression, but the other part of the problem is what is more depressing. Writing is my purpose and it has been amazing seeing…

Are Christmas Cards Irrelevant?
Last year I wrote letters to my Sunday School teachers and the other couple in the class. Since at that point that’s what our class was for most of the time. Not long afterwards a floodgate arose and several came into the class closer to Christmas. People don’t give cards out like they used to.…
