It's Halloween weekend, and you won't find a single witch, ghost, goblin, or scarecrow on the premises…there's not even a pumpkin on my porch, much less a jack-o-lantern. No, I'm not against Halloween. I love it! It's always been one of my favorite holidays! (And I do not believe that means I'm a bad Christian.) I hated when…

I hoped to put my morning walk off until later, when the sun was higher (better light, better photos) and I had finished my work-out (the longer I put it off, the less likely I am to do it! It's better to catch myself before I'm fully awake!) But Belle spotted me through the window;…

There was something different about my walk yesterday morning. It felt magical, like I was in a Disney movie… everything washed in a golden light. No humidity. No bugs. Just perfect. Dreamlike.

I'm packing my days so tight these days that if this week was a suitcase, I'd be sitting on it right now trying to zip it up! So Tom shouldn't have been surprised that I neglected my half of dinner-duty today. Yes, it's true. I forgot to take something out to thaw. That's okay, though,…

Gray skies. Gray thoughts. Thinking of disappointment on my walk this morning, for some reason… how people who are close to us may disappoint us – our friends, our family – but how easily and often we also disappoint them, with our words, actions, or non-actions. The government disappoints us, like our episode with the…

Dost thou love life? Then do not squander time, for that's the stuff life is made of. ~Benjamin Franklin I don't think I'm guilty of time-squandering. Even with my tennis shoes on, Time is outrunning me these days. Another weekend has snuck up on me and I haven't really mentioned the last one. Maybe I just…
