I decided to do something new this week. I have felt some fear and trepidation, some frustration, and a lot of stress. In all of this, I think I lost track of the really important things. So this week, I began noting on Facebook (each morning) the things for which I was grateful. I wrote…
It’s easy to get caught up in daily minutiae. Laundry, grocery shopping, bills, traffic, and scores of other relatively insignificant issues and events. It is even easier to become preoccupied by health problems, potential heart surgeries, and minimally torn rotator cuffs. How many of these things will really matter in 10 years? How about in…
It’s Father’s Day and a time to remember. Some of my most vivid childhood memories are of my father in the pulpit. You see, my dad was a Methodist minister until I was 7 or 8 years old. If you have never experienced such a thing, maybe this will help you to understand. Imagine a…
Once again, I was alone in a new state. But this time, I had our Maltese to keep me company. I accepted this job because it offered an opportunity to work with my mentor and to be closer to my daughter and mother. These things were the high point of my time in Georgia. This…
As I sit here preparing to write today’s blog, I notice that there is a double rainbow outside. What wonderful symbolism this is for today’s topic: change and renewal. My divorce was final in March 2000. In June of that year, my beautiful daughter graduated from high school. In late August, I graduated from Auburn…
Sometime in 1995 (my mid 30’s), I began to change. Mind you this was not an overnight process. Rather, it was the beginning of a process that continues to this day. My husband and daughter went to northern Alabama with the church. They were going to help build and repair houses. I stayed home, probably…
Most people have one mother. I was fortunate enough to have four women in my life that filled that role at one time or another. The first woman in this life was Norelle. She passed in and out of my life in less than three years including pregnancy. She and my dad graduated from high…
I finished boot camp and went to San Diego for “A” and “C” schools (Radioman and Morse Code). Imagine, I had a great new figure, income, and was 19 in San Diego. I had a wonderful time. I attended classes during the day and danced and drank all night. And I didn’t even have to…
After ‘majoring’ in disco for 18 months, I decided that I needed to do something else with my life. I knew that my dad was borrowing money for me to go to school and I also knew that I was not taking it seriously. I am not sure where I heard that the military was…
Of course I was not at Grandma’s house all of the time. At home, there were different food rules. For instance, we did not have sugar coated cereal in the house. I recall wanting Honeycomb cereal so badly because it had Winnie the Pooh character pencil toppers in each box. I begged and pleaded and…
