I am under a lot of stress.
My daughter-in-law has stage 4 cancer.
I started a new job recently which is not going well. I lost my job…
It is cold outside.

A Debt to Pay Gladly
The frost performs its secret ministry, Unhelped by any wind.*
It is so cold today.
I am inside wearing a heavy sweater as I type.
I sip hot coffee and enjoy dark chocolate as I start my day. Continue reading “A Debt to Pay Gladly”
Thoughts on Blogging
What has been will be again
What has been will be again, what has been done will be done again; there is nothing new under the sun. *
I blog about my experiences.
I reveal my fears.
I share my happiness, my sorrows and my insights.
My concerns are nothing new to mankind. Continue reading “Thoughts on Blogging”
I Could Have Felt Sorry for Myself…
There was no Christmas tree.
No mistletoe.
No twinkling lights.
A Christmas Tree?
Making everything merry and bright!

In six weeks, I would be out of a job.
Then to add insult to injury, the company decided to close on December 14th. Continue reading “I lost my job…”
Pain Point 1
I never took shop.
Until a few years ago I did not know a flat head screwdriver from a phillips screwdriver. Nor did I care.
Now as a widow, I find that knowing a bit more about all of the things that make my house stand up and my car go are worthwhile.
When a problem arise, I do my best research and then at some point I go for it. Continue reading “Pain Point 1”
Naked Came I
Naked came I out of my mother’s womb, and naked shall I return thither.*
An estate sale
My friend called to tell me about some wonderful sheets that she found at an estate sale near my house. As you probably know, good sheets are terribly expensive. Well worth the price as they last forever, but still a shock when first purchased.
Thinking that it would be great to find some inexpensive but nice sheets for my two adult sons and their families, I went to the estate sale. Continue reading “Naked Came I”
Belle
Belle is an old dog of unknown heritage, beloved by my son.
