As I sit before my screen to organize some sort of blog this morning, I'm tempted to write again about the very thing that is utmost in my head - the journey I'll be taking with open heart surgery in less than two weeks. Instead, I'm writing about some of the other mundaneness that filters... Continue Reading →
My ‘Broken’ Heart – Pre-Surgery
The dream I had: I had a medium size box I was carrying that contained things that mattered to me: phone, money, and a bunch of other things, I cannot remember what those items are. I had about fifteen grand in various envelopes and I was taking this box along for my journey. Well, the... Continue Reading →
Dating Nightmares, One of Many
Before I met Hubbin, I was part of the online dating world. This post, though lengthy, is about a particular guy I 'met' who might have been on his way to getting me locked up, simply because I wanted to believe the lies. I shouldn't have clicked on his profile. I had subscribed to multiple... Continue Reading →
Nothing Ever Happens Here (A Short Story)
(One for the littles) “Nothing ever happens here!” Ali and her twin brother Alex complained in unison. They came in and flopped down on the floor next to their mother’s rocking chair in the living room and gave a loud sigh. It was the second week of summer break, and they were already bored with...

Dream Interpretation; What’s Really Going On
Okay, who all believes that dreams may have a deeper meaning to give insight to the dreamer? *raising my hand* Having said that, I do not believe that events or people or items that one dreams about have the same meaning to all who dream, nor that all dreams come from the One above. The... Continue Reading →

It is Xanax-worthy, and even to this day, not even my pest control people say the "S" word in my presence - if they happen... Continue Reading →
My First ‘Wolf Whistle’
Daily writing promptIf you could go back and witness any historical event, which one would you pick?View all responses Okay, so going back historically to receiving my first wolf whistle sounds pretty self-centered, even for me. I mean, after all, who wouldn't want to witness the signing of the Declaration of Independence, or birth of... Continue Reading →
If You Had Only One Day Left…
Yesterday's appointment with my heart doctor left me with only a few questions. I feel this guy is totally competent and answered every question I threw at him about my condition, but I reserved a few of them for pondering over with my coffee this morning. They are ones I don't think he'd have the... Continue Reading →
What Is A Husband?
What is a husband? I don't want to hear Webster's version; I want to know what my definition is. I have had two failed marriages, so evidently those qualities do not fit my definition. My third, well, he's my best friend, so that must be important to me. Hubbin is... Well, I started this post... Continue Reading →
“We May Never Pass This Way Again…”
Good morning, World. The title to my blog is in quotes because that was the main song at my high school graduation, and a big thank you to you, Seals & Crofts, for writing and singing about what we were going through back then. I listened to it on my Nano yesterday, while painting the... Continue Reading →
