I spent Easter with Cinderella’s extended family and friends this year. We made cookies and colored eggs. Here is Butterfly and Cinderella busy decorating cookies. And the result of our labor. This was just a small portion of the cookies. The Easter Bunny definitely paid a visit. The joy of finding Easter eggs. Especially for [...]
This marks the last week I will reside in a town where I have lived for the last 28 years. I came with a whim and a prayer all those years ago. I packed up two small children, moved to an unfamiliar place, and soon was pregnant with another. So young in those days. So [...]
Yesterday I went to a memorial service for a woman I met probably over twenty-five years ago. She is Lady Red’s grandma. She lived ninety-three years. She had children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren, and great-great grandchildren. Amazing. What is more amazing is her life story. She had a hard childhood. She went on to marry a wonderful [...]

On Saturday, my best friend, Lady Red came down to stay with me. I have known this girl for a long, long time. Our youngest children were infants when we met. I guess you can say we sorta grew up together. We have experienced so much together and we do not judge each other. We [...]
Last weekend I visited with my son Hippie Guy, his wife Flower Child and their twin sons, Fuzzy and Wuzzy. We had a BBQ and watched the boys who are now seventeen months old. We played, read books and they toddled everywhere. Everytime I see them I am not quite sure who is who. One [...]
Cinderella and her family came down so Grandma M and Grandpa DingDon could meet the newest member of our family DD. We ate Sloppy Joes or Taverns as Grandma M calls them and had a wonderful visit. DD is only five weeks old, but you would think he was older by the way he acts. [...]
