Thoughts on Making A ‘Truce’
When I first came upon this article this afternoon I had to look at the title a couple of times. What was the context that a truce was needed? Especially after having watched another clip of Riley Gaines with the West Virginia AG talking about Title 9. So I had an entirely different idea at…

Saying Goodbye… Is Still Difficult!
Last year my Grandma moved out of her house that she had lived in since 1965. It was no simple or easy task to go through this house with thousands of memories and treasures within its walls. The fortunate silver lining about this experience is the fact Grandma is still alive and we can still…

Dining in Columbus, Indiana
On Thursday afternoon we were starting to lick our chops, ready to think about our first food destination. As we had already charged past our ultimate destination in order to go shopping not far away we looked on both sides of the highway. The question was asked what do we want to eat? The usual…

Sunday Morning Thoughts
Honestly, after the past few mornings yesterday was another hard day to get up. My phone alarm works so I just kept pushing the snooze button. However, my second alarm has bitten the dust.

A Low-Key Spring Trip
We didn’t need to leave really early on Thursday morning. Check-in at our hotel, of course, wasn’t until 3 pm. Yet leaving to get there would only take a couple of hours no more than that. However, we also decided to go to Edinburgh to visit and spend some time at the mall. Knowing all…

The first was actually the day of the Total Eclipse with one of my Mom’s cousins. Then together there was Grandpa’s and Lilly’s and then there is another lull until Uncle…

Our 3rd Anniversary
Yesterday was a day of poignant thoughts and memories. Grandma Rosie died in March of 2020, but her words follow me even now. She told me I would fall and fall hard for my Mr. Right. She was absolutely on the mark; I was the one who was skeptical. Three years ago on the 13th…

Last Night
When I drink sweet tea at a restaurant after 3 pm I guess I am asking for a miserable night. The caffeine and sweetness are too much. Yet it’s like I have brain fog and I forget. I couldn’t sleep a wink finally I got up did some exercising thinking that would help, it didn’t.…

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…
