Why Sewing Matters
Growing up in my family on both my parents sides were not just the agile crafters, but women who had essential skills to provide for their family. Crafting and making pretty or simply functional clothing is not an extravagance or something that is not useful. Sewing was a skill in the American past that was…

Fiery, Passionate Love
Last year I wrote out my feelings about my nieces birthday and motherhood or lack of experience being a mother. Becoming an Aunt was an experience though and I went through all of that in this article from a year ago. Today is slightly different. Have you noticed something about recent crimes lately.

The Day Before
Today was a nice day. It was good for our walk this morning and then this afternoon it turned. A front came in and it has been raining since, whether lightly or somewhat harder. I know it’s not completely the same, but I think about 1944 and what that day was like. It was a…

Parent Time
Today I spent the morning with my Dad. Both of my parents had appointments in different directions. My brother was all too happy to go with Mom and so I went with Daddy. Mom just had therapy, but Dad was having a checkup on his eyes. This morning I was unsure what to expect of…

Troops Left Behind
Why on earth does this White House hate our own military? Every American can see it in the actions and inaction of the past 3 years. Foreign Policy has never been Biden’s strong suit ever. Obama’s Former Department of Defense has even said I am paraphrasing that he has been wrong on every foreign policy…

Birthday Wishes
Wishing on candles never did quite work out as they do in the movies for me, at least. As a little girl though, it was so much fun to do. My parents did throw in one year the candles that don’t blow out as easily one time. God doesn’t work in wishes though does He?…
