The View From Here
Do you remember the Village People? I sit out here on the back porch sometimes and think about them. I wonder where they are and what they’re doing and if they are still wearing cowboy hats and Indian headdresses and staying at the YMCA. Did they end up starring in their own videos or ABC movies or start anContinue reading “The View From Here”
I Don’t Know Where to Start
I don’t really know where to begin with this post. It’s inside my head. Thoughts and ideas and questions and stuff mixed up and rolled into a jumbled mess. And I don’t know where to start. Actually, it all started with this incredibly thought-provoking post and these comments on Beth’s Facebook page. I read itContinue reading “I Don’t Know Where to Start”
Julius Caesar Would Have Been Proud
As my Latin teacher used to say: Venimus! Vidimus! Vicimus! “it’s a Cinch” projects that is. I really wanted to say “amazing” in Latin, but it didn’t translate. I don’t think Julius Caesar was really up on the “amazing” lingo in 44 BC. I guess he was too worried about the Ides of March. Even if Julius Caesar didn’t say it.

Happiness is a Monogram

PS I Found You
I love writing this blog. Truly. I think some days I love it more than a hot fudge sundae with whipped cream and sprinkles on top. More than walking along the beach with sand between my toes and finding the perfect piece of sea glass. Some days I love it more than finding a yard saleContinue reading “PS I Found You”
The Twirly Whirly Skirt
One of the twins had to have a twirly whirly skirt. I guess twirly whirly skirts are alll the rage if you are nine and Hannah Montana is your fashion icon. I saw her outside one day. Arms lifted to the sky. Blonde hair floating in the wind. With a smile on her face. And her twirly whirly skirt wasContinue reading “The Twirly Whirly Skirt”
