I live in a small town where I went to school and graduated high school. You get to know people when you've been around them for a long time. Some people I know by face only...no name, but I have seen them out and about for decades. We stop and visit once in awhile...even though… Continue reading BACK TO WORK
MORE CHANGE….WHAT NEXT?
January is nearly over...just 11 more days and it will be February! But after a long period of inactivity and little going on (except, of course a visit to my daughter and acquiring two kittens and two puppies), it seems like my world is suddenly getting shaken up. I started back to work...just two days… Continue reading MORE CHANGE….WHAT NEXT?
I NEED SOME NEW PHOTOS!!!
I need some new photos, but I haven't been anywhere lately; and it's cold, it's damp, and it's dark and dreary! I get depressed when there is no sunlight for days on end; comes from being a California girl. I was born and raised in the middle of California's interior desert, in a little town… Continue reading I NEED SOME NEW PHOTOS!!!
CHANGE IS IN THE AIR!
Halfway through January and already things are changing! I just went back to work....part time for those extra dollars that will allow me to have all those extras in my life that I enjoy; dropping things that cost extra but aren't truly necessary, moving forward with remodeling areas of the house that need upgrading, and… Continue reading CHANGE IS IN THE AIR!
BACK TO THE DAILY GRIND
Funny how so much gets put aside when the Christmas holidays come around. It's a month long time of celebration and rejoicing that we all do in our own way. We start with Thanksgiving and end with New Year's Eve, then bam! daily life begins again as if there were no interruption. When the Christmas… Continue reading BACK TO THE DAILY GRIND
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
And now it starts....a new year; new resolutions, new plans and hopes. Christmas decorations are put away to wait until the end of the year, we begin to look forward to spring. Gardeners start looking through garden magazines, all us ladies start looking for new clothes for the coming spring and summer. Just one day… Continue reading HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!
LAST DAY OF 2019
Last day of the year. Tomorrow is a new day and a new year. I was on Facebook earlier and watched the midnight countdown in HongKong. Strange to realize that it's already a new year in some parts of the world, but several hours away here. We always knew it was a different time and… Continue reading LAST DAY OF 2019
THE DAY AFTER CHRISTMAS AND ALL THROUGH HOUSE A COLLECTIVE SIGH CAN BE HEARD….365 DAYS UNTIL CHRISTMAS COMES AGAIN!
I love Christmas! I love all the decorations, the music, the colors and lights; and the way people seem to be more joyful....nicer to each other. But I do not love the commercial side of it. Of course, it is a time when we all go out and buy gifts for all our friends and… Continue reading THE DAY AFTER CHRISTMAS AND ALL THROUGH HOUSE A COLLECTIVE SIGH CAN BE HEARD….365 DAYS UNTIL CHRISTMAS COMES AGAIN!
IT’S CHRISTMAS
This is a post I wrote last year but never published. Somehow it seems appropriate to publish it now. I hope you enjoy it. It's Christmas, the best and biggest holiday of the year. For me, Christmas is a time of reflection, a time to think on the past year. It's one week until a… Continue reading IT’S CHRISTMAS
THE CHRISTMAS SEASON AND THE END OF THE YEAR
Christmas is the time of year that we stop to remember the birth of Jesus, Son of God, Messiah; Lord of lords and King of kings. People like to argue about the date on which Christmas falls, as if it is important. And, of course, the date on which we celebrate Christmas isn't really the… Continue reading THE CHRISTMAS SEASON AND THE END OF THE YEAR
