I woke up crying and still crying...and it's not even noon yet. I decided to jump out for a run before 9 am. Sun was shining and my heart craved that Vitamin D. When I run, I listen to a live country station out of Nashville. Of course, I know it's Father's Day. DJ was …
Tough morning. I was really missing the ones I love. I worked in my garage to fill the void. That was short-lived. I have it just about completely organized. I received an email that paperwork to put my dad's house on the market was ready, but am I? I'm selling it simply "as is". I …
Friday I had to drive over and pick up my dad's death certificate. I know he's gone, but seeing his name with the official seal stings a whole lot! One of the memories I had about my dad was many years ago, we used to drive to this small town in Kentucky. (I would drive; …
I haven't written in a while. I still cannot find the words to write what I would love to write so I'll just tell you about 4:30. Long story short. I closed on my house. My dad died. All in a matter of a few days. My world has crashed. My dad was my world. …
Last fall I wrote about seasons of change and how leaves die off, only to reproduce new growth in the spring. Well..here it is now spring.

Today has been 13 years since Chubs died. Will this be a lucky year? Chubs was the first to pass from our immediate family. There are times when scents or songs take you to a moment with your loved one gone. I know when I smell Chantilly powder, it takes me right to my sweet …
Are we hours away from 2020 being over? Can we say "Hindsight 20/20" and really mean it? I'm over this year. This will be my final post till 2021. If I were a betting woman, I would bet 100 out of 100 people would say they are over this year, as well. How could a …
How do I sum up my Christmas this year? I would have to say it's as close enough to perfect as it could be compared to the year I have had. My niece, Miss Priss, as I have called her since she was born, and I reunited this year with my brother's (her dad) cancer …
This insane year is only 18 days from reaching its end. The entire world can agree how awful it's been. This has been the year of Murphy's Law. Bad news after bad news. This blog is not a resolution, but more of a realization. As I took my Gracie Mae for a walk today, I …
I can't believe tomorrow will be three weeks since Jim passed. I miss my brother more than I ever imagined. We talked every single day for so long. Even last night I saw something I wanted to ask him about...I went as far as pulling out my phone to text. As soon as I saw …
