Monday Morning Musings: 3 months and 79 years ago
I have never made a trip to Young County without going by Grandma’s house and when she was still living in it–to go see her. In the first years after they could no longer live alone, I could still drive … Continue reading
Saturday Night Special: It’s not what you think it is.
On the way home from Texas, we spent the night in Monroe, LA. We were planning on dinner at the Waterfront Grill, on the river by the University of Louisiana Monroe…but even though the website said it was open, it … Continue reading
My own personal funeral service for my mother: Awesome!
Mother died February 9, 2019. I was 12 hours away by car and even if I flew in to Dallas from Memphis and rented a car, I could not have been there in time for the funeral. We had previously … Continue reading

Reimagine
Ever have one of those days when what you intended to do was not what you did? Me, too. I had an agenda all planned yesterday of things I wanted to accomplish. I have been dragging my heels on finishing … Continue reading
When life is a walk in the park
Yesterday was the kind of day I needed. It was a pretty day, not raining for a change, and I headed to Lamar Park. The park was full of families picnicking, playing with their kids, fishing, walking, and just lying … Continue reading
