    Life. It is such a gift from God. There are so many seasons. This season of being a grandmother is such a special time. All through your life you have different titles: daughter/son, student, wife/husband, mom/dad, employee, grammy/poppy, etc. Time goes by so fast.

    Is God with you? Do you notice when you look at your life how things look so bleak you feel hopeless? There are hard decisions to make and you feel like there is no good choice. Then you remember “ I am your refuge,” “ I lift my eyes up to the Lord, “ and”…

    Well, we survived last weekend’s adventure…but I still have to tell you about the IHOP stop! Abbey and I were dreaming BIG about having a meal in peace and uninterrupted. Remember how we were parched after the water was sadly dumped in the fancy fountain at The Orpheum? That life-giving (and keeping Sal’s UTIs away)…

    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…

    I woke up today in one of the best moods I have had in awhile. I was downright giddy. I had friends coming and a sunny day to roll outside INDEPENDENTLY with handsome sidekick Hugo, my dog. I had a friend who is creating a garden of Eden for me. My hip, beautiful, and ultra…

    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…
