Oh, What a Night!
Oh, what a night! In my mind, I have too many irons in the fire. Students, that is what my Daddy would tell me when I wanted to do a dozen tasks at once. I can still hear his voice from beyond the pale. It warms my heart that we stay connected in eternity. Yes…

Flutter Pickles, Fairy Dust, and Crunch Crunch Berries
In my mind today I am thinking about flutter pickles, fairy dust, crunch crunch berries, and all the great times I have had with my grand girls. I cannot believe another season is upon me and my older Grands are a senior and a freshman. Where are the days that were filled with such Garden…

Nuggets
In my mind today, I have been feeding my brain with literature. I am studying again! Don’t moan back row, students. Be joyful that I am looking for God. It has been a while since I have had the strength to read and focus. What threw me out of my stagnating reverie was YouTube. Yes,…

The Grief That Stole Christmas
The Grief that Stole Christmas In my mind today of course I am thinking about Christmas. Looking at Christmases past on social media, remembering how much I put into Christmas before ALS.
