It was brief but filled with lots of love. We stopped at Sully’s for lunch before checking into our hotel. Then we met up with Kadyn and Lauren for sushi night. I spent the entire day Thursday with Lauren. Drinking coffee and doing nails. We watched Kadyn’s soccer game but she wasn’t in it dueContinue reading “My Trip to Raleigh”

Getting Old Isn’t For Sissies
When I was younger I took my ability to move, jump, dance, climb, and everything else for granted. I’d run up the stairs in my house. In fact, the house I owned in my 40s and 50s, and 60s was a tri-level. None of the stairs had banksters. I ran up and down them neverContinue reading “Getting Old Isn’t For Sissies”

When my 17-year-old granddaughter visits, we usually get a boatload of sushi, sashimi, and rolls. There are several good places near where I live but IContinue reading “I love sushi”
10 Years From Now
Where do you see yourself in 10 years? Oh boy! That’s a hard one. I will be in my 89s if I am fortunate to live that long. In all seriousness, if I am in good shape I hope to be active. Hiking, traveling, doing the things I do now. Maybe I will travel lessContinue reading “10 Years From Now”

Because even when life is a little touch-and-go, God has my back. All I have to do is spend some quiet time in prayer and meditation to bringContinue reading “5 Things That Bring Joy”
A Positive Change
Describe one positive change you have made in your life. One major change which I believe was cataclysmic to my being who I am today is that I stopped drinking. During my youth, my 20s and most of my 30, alcohol had been my best friend and then my worst enemy. It came before myContinue reading “A Positive Change”
Exercise!
What’s the most fun way to exercise? You know I’m one of those people who always love to exercise. Whether it’s doing a class at a gym, using weights, or power walking, I find it all exhilarating.
