We Are Rich!

December 23, 2011

The gifts are wrapped. We’ve visited Santa. We’ve enjoyed Louis Hamilton. The snowmen are on display even though it has been warm enough to wear short sleeves for the past two weeks.  Our house is festive. We’ve welcomed family and friends into our home for holiday get-togethers. The nasty burnt stinch is gone from the house [...]

NEVER EVER say NEVER

September 11, 2011

Today, like millions of Americans, I am thinking of that day… that fateful day that changed America forever. The day that changed the lives of thousands of Americans everywhere. And, although it wasn’t nearly as dramatic or tragic as the terrorist plot that was taking place, that day was for me, the start of a downward spiral that [...]

A Movie Starring Me

August 9, 2010

A month of so ago, my URL friend Darcie over at Such The Spot did a post about moments in her life that would make up the movie of her life. She called it Movie Moments and at the end of the post, she asked us to share the moments that would make our movie. Then, I started [...]

Smiles

July 27, 2010

I am having a blast at the beach with McDaddy and his big honkin’ family. We are spending lots of time in the pool, participating in a family shuffleboard tournament (which McDaddy and I were eliminated from just minutes ago), and the beach. Our dinners are being catered by a fabulous lady which I’ll tell [...]

An Ordinary Day

February 18, 2010

Thirteen months have passed, yet it still seems like yesterday. Unsuspectingly, I drive by the sight and feel a boulder emerge in my throat. I bite my lip in an effort to hold back the tears. Unsummoned, I feel the tears coming. I look up in my rear-view mirror to catch a glimpse of a [...]

To The Beat Of A Different Drummer

September 23, 2009

Yesterday evening, I sat on hard bleachers trying to keep my bum from going numb, watching the eight high schools in our county compete in a band and majorette festival. First, may I say that in my opinion, the Charleston Daily Mail is playing fast and loose with the ‘majorette’ part of that title. Because [...]

Thursday Thirteen — Random Songs On My iPod

September 16, 2009

Welcome to another edition of Thursday Thirteen. This week, I thought it might be fun to share some of the songs on my beloved iPod. (I just realized I use the word beloved a LOT here on the blog. I’ll try to watch that in the future.) If you have the time to waste, you [...]

Memories

May 25, 2009

Today is a day set aside to remember those who have passed away. My heart is heavy thinking of three sweet people in my life. I am thinking of my friend, Jonathan who was killed on January 10th of this year in a car accident. His death has been very difficult for me and I [...]

Mercy and Me!

January 23, 2009

If you are one of my eight loyal blog fans, you may remember that I’ve mentioned Mercy here, here, and here. Mercy, as wonderful as it is, is not exactly what I am writing about today. Today, I am writing about a different kind of Mercy. You see, this Mercy, is a little girl from Malawi. [...]
