    Gotcha! I have not been changing teams to the dark side! Recently I had a great time with SOB. It made this old girl in the scoot get some self esteem back. My daughter was with me along with Lauren and Zuri. I know front row students are aghast. Ms. Alley is taking a walk…

    I think I am figuring out why I have been losing medulla as in oblongata. I’m desperately seeking a Papa Smurf, Ratz (I was his Paparazzi and he was Ratz), Poppy, or MSH (My Sweet Husband.) Also, I am in another ALS decline. I don’t wanna look the Beast in the eyes. I have to…

    The times are a changing. My wonderful father died at 11 pm on my birthday, June 3rd. This time of year I am weepy and emotional and then I remember why. He comes to my mind every May and June. I think of him even more than the usual once a day. The wonderful memories…

    In my mind lately I have had long periods of time not feeling well in my body and spirit. ALS has plateaus and valleys. There are no longer any peaks.

    I am struggling, Lord. This Lent is pulling at my heart. I am weeding it as we have been talking about and my heart is so tender. When I pray, the tears come and my breath catches in my throat. My God Goggles see so much beauty and goodness and tragedy of this earthly life.…

    We all crave it.  It is a precious commodity.  It creates security.  It fosters fairness.  It influences temperance or moderation.  It seeks to serve the helpless and hopeless.  It builds reliability.  It generates kind-heartedness.  It promotes relationships and community.  It designs authenticity.  It forges modesty and produces chastity. It brings patience.  It fabricates joy.  It…
