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 …

Holding On…
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 …
Looking Back…
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 …
Back to Grind
Took a few days to step away from reality and escape to the mountains. Escape can be good for the soul. While I know reality was still on my mind, I felt I wasn't in the eye of the storm at the time. I kept sending my brother daily texts to make sure he was …
Still Carrying On
It's been over a month since I wrote my last blog post. I feel guilty for taking so long, but life has been a tad crazy. I don't know about any of you, but I'm so over 2020. This truly has been the worst year ever. During the month of July, I felt like I …
Treasured Gifts of Mom
I hate when Mother's Day approaches being a motherless daughter. This year is a double whammy to me. My mom's birthday falls on Mother's Day this year. My heart just can't take that. I was going to wait on writing a blog for that day, but figured I would get my thoughts out now and …
Juggling life
My word what a past couple days. I have not been in a blog writing mood. I couldn't wrap my head around everything I'm juggling to put my thoughts into words. That's just life. It's reality. Any one of us could easily look up and say, "Why me, Lord?". Instead, I remind myself to look …
Chasing Sundown
First blog of the new year, new decade. I have wasted no time in getting back in motion. Of course as many who have ever dieted or exercise, it doesn't happen overnight, even though we mentally expect that. Weather around here is insane. Temps have been unusually warm with beautiful sunshine. However, this weekend is …
Twas the Night…
I write this in the late afternoon of Christmas Eve. One thing that is very much in common with my hunka hunka and I from day one is our families celebrate everything on Christmas Eve. Then Christmas Day is just the two of us to relax. I thought about waiting to write this blog tomorrow …
As the saying goes…
The title of my blog will hopefully make sense by the end. Here's a picture my dad pulled out after I lost my mom. He absolutely loves this picture. He tells me he gets up often to sit and stare at it. Many times he says he talks to my mom. The picture hangs on …
