When my youngest was pre-teen, we took an RV trip, just him and me, down the Oregon coast. We had some left-over bread that we thought would be a nice treat for the few seagulls we saw soaring so gracefully along the ocean breezes. We pulled over at a coastline rest area and after gathering... Continue Reading →
The Ultimate Sense of Peace – Death?
I dream a lot; I've said this so many times over the years, but today it bears repeating. This past year I had a dream about the ultimate sense of peace, an enveloping, calm, stillness that padded me in a peace that I have never experienced in real life, ever. I dreamed I was in...

At the Hairdresser’s (not really)
Hubbin is coloring my hair at home - for the record, he does a great job at applying color, and I'm reacting as if he's my hairdresser, one I've not seen in ages. "So, here's what's been going on since the last time I sat in your chair," I remark. He laughs but I'm more... Continue Reading →
Another Rainy Day in Oklahoma
Yesterday morning it rained and Hubbin brought me my first cup of the day, before I opened my second eye; I cannot remember the last time I've had that luxury. This will add to the list of just why I love rainy days, "coffee in bed" is now on my list. This morning I'm reflecting... Continue Reading →
Daily Prompt 2050-The furthest I’ve ever traveled from home: I went to Hell
I went to Hell in 1999. It gives new meaning to me about partying like it was 1999! I can tell you, yes it was hot, I can also tell you there was nothing fancy about the journey - no Grim Reaper, no picture of Death. Think rattly old bus with windows that didn't stay... Continue Reading →
A Pig Rescue
I help out. It's not something I brag about; it is just who I am. This morning I was scrolling through FB and saw that my former boss had posted yet another picture of an animal that needed a forever home, which reminded me of the time she had found a small pig online that... Continue Reading →
Memorable Church Services – Top 10
This morning I was reflecting, over my first cup of coffee of course, on church services I have attended over the years. Here are my top ten: 10. The service I attended when the minister compared the cross above many churches to the "Golden Arches" of McDonald's and if you saw a cross on a... Continue Reading →
It’s Tuesday. No, It’s Thursday…
Somewhere in this week I lost a couple days. Looking back, I did not believe I'd been that busy but thinking about it, *sigh* yes, I have been. Easy to lose track of the days, I think, when I've got nowhere to be on any given day. A lot of busy work doesn't make it... Continue Reading →
Riding Until I Can Breathe
Yesterday was one of those almost-perfect days for riding; not too hot, not too cold so we took the Can-Ams out for the morning. We got suited up and I usually follow Hubbin, but yesterday he let me lead. I headed west until we got so rural that the road narrowed, then we turned south... Continue Reading →
