Technorati Tags: Wishing,blessings On Sundays I often count my blessings. Not that I’m not aware of my blessings on the other six days of the week, because in general I think I’m a grateful person. But, on Sundays, it is quiet and peaceful, and I think back over the years of my life and I [...]
The family room carpet looks awesome!!! Double digit, awe inspiring awesomely clean! I will have to take the samples back to the carpet place now and tell them I changed my mind. I just saved $1100.00 that we didn’t have. Oh the joy! AND … that isn’t all … !!! My favorite lazy-boy recliner is [...]
I’ve been thinking about “patients” and “patience”, both of which describe my man at the present time. Patience is definitely his virtue and not mine. Oh, I am sort of patient. It just doesn’t always show, because I like to whine about things and be a little bit annoying while I am being patient. I [...]
That mean old March wind gusted fiercely the other night and uprooted a sweet little tree that blossomed beautifully in our neighborhood every Spring. With its roots broken and exposed, it didn’t have a chance of recovery, but in one last burst of energy it gave the neighborhood one last gift of delicate, fragrant blossoms. [...]
The other day the clouds were so beautiful we had to stop several times on the way home from town to look at them and take pictures. There is something about even the darkest of clouds that make me feel close to God. Like this one makes me remember the song “Look for the Silver [...]

This is our celebration week … Our 43rd anniversary and Lynn’s 66th birthday. I can tell we are older by how we celebrated. Year’s ago our anniversaries included a huge vase of beautiful roses and a quiet, romantic dinner. This year allergies have called a halt to the beautiful roses and heartburn has taken away [...]
There is a drive down to the beach that has road base until you are fairly close. Those who have 4 wheel drive vehicles … or those who are very daring drive their cars closer. Most of them get a big run on it and go lickity split through the deep sand to where the [...]
To my delight I woke today to a bright, sunny day. Although we have enjoyed the wonderful, cool weather here on the seashore there haven’t been very many days of sunshine. Having come from the desert where the sun ALWAYS shines I have missed it. So, this afternoon we, of course, drove down to the [...]
Lynn and I went bowling today. He bowled 129 and I bowled 111, which for me is probably the highest score of my life. It reminded me of our second official “date”. We grew up together in the small town of Draper and our best friends were siblings so we spent time together all our [...]
