What’s Your Worldview?
You gotta love philosophy – full of questions, wonder and oh, so many words!! My old friend Marlee called me early this morning- time for a catch-up. On our respective phones in front of our respective monitors, we visited the Homestead Website and poked through some old blog posts. From there to the business of…

Happy Anniversary to Me !!!
Yes, indeed, I’m one fortunate woman, sharing my story and my joy with y’all today. Four years ago right about now, a neurosurgeon and his team took a buzz saw to my skull and then a scalpel to my brain. Later he visited me in the night and delivered the news that the tumor they…

Kentucky Sunshine
This is a wonderful place to be. Wrapped in warmth and not from a furnace – the gentle warmth of sunshine, surrounded by blue skies and soft breezes. The birds are singing all around me; made it hard to hear the You-Tube video I’m thinking of putting on this post – bluegrass – not my…

Bunnies With No Heads???
Do not be dismayed, this post will give you hope and encouragement, I promise 🙂 As often mentioned in these pages, I’m a traditionalist; I believe tradition is the glue that binds us together. Today I’ll tell a quick story about a mother who used to buy the best solid chocolate Easter bunnies for her…

This isn’t a problem; it’s a feature …
As my dad says, “There you have it,” My title for the day – a statement I heard from an unnamed source. I just love it; in fact, it gets better. The speaker went on to say it was a “feature” strategically placed to help the listeners learn a lesson. I cannot wait to actually…

This, too, shall pass…
A quick google of today’s title finds it defined as a proverb; not a quote from the Bible – you gotta love a phrase that has its own wiki 🙂 It may be based on the oft-repeated phrase, “And it came to pass,” first used in Genesis chapter four and depending on your source and…

Seasons …
Here’s a switch, music from Vivaldi’s Four Seasons, this piece being Spring; not my usual rock’n’roll, but it fits the title and I am a pianist/musician so enjoy! We’re rapidly approaching a new season on the calendar; Spring is a week away and definitely in the air. But in the last week I’ve had a…

No Good Deed Goes …?
Surely some of you know the rest of that aphorism. Because of my belief in the power of words, often stated here – words matter – I won’t be finishing the statement; in fact today we’ll do a test run on a new ending, give it a new spin. And I do love spin 🙂…

TA DA! and TA DA! again…
A two-TA DA! evening – quite a way to end the weekend!! Not time-for-sleep end as I still have a transcript due in the morning, but the challenging part of the weekend is successfully completed. Top that off with a fun conversation with a special niece and a “night-night” phone call with my ErinLee and…

Cows on the Loose and a Mouse in the House
How’s that for just another Sunday afternoon on the farm? All I was trying to do was get a head-start on the trimester of school that begins tomorrow. Way too simple a plan for the day apparently. The mouse was and still is more unpleasant than the cows – smaller, but more intimidating. Who wants…
