Legends, Lore, and More
Four weeks from today, I'll be retired. For several months, I've teased my co-workers that I'm going to sit on my front porch that first morning, take a photo of the sunrise, and text them with the message, "This is what I'm doing today. With my luck, it will probably be pouring down rain, but... Continue Reading →
Hey, everyone. Today is the last day of 2020. If you’re like most people there aren’t many words more welcomed than those. This has been a trying year in more ways than one. It was what I expected to be a great year. 2020 had a nice ring to it. We were twenty years into... Continue Reading →
Hey y’all. It's time for this week's Thursday Thoughts. Like many of today’s writers, I also hold a full-time job. I leave the house around 6:30 each weekday morning and get home around 4:30 unless I have errands to run. My husband works on Saturdays, and I try to use that day as my primary... Continue Reading →
Hey, y’all. Yes, I’ve gone from rarely blogging to a regular schedule. I had planned to leave Thursdays open, but yesterday an idea came to mind - Thursday Thoughts. I don’t know if I’ll write these each week, but I do plan to have a Thursday post at least a couple of times per month.... Continue Reading →
Hey, y'all. Time for another weekly wrap up. If you read last week's post, you know I took a mini-vacation. Last Friday, my husband and I hit the road for a day trip. Call us crazy, but we traveled three hours to a "Ghost Town" for the sole purpose of eating lunch. Okay, we also... Continue Reading →
Hey readers. I know I said I planned to blog more often, but life has been super busy of late I know. Life is ALWAYS busy. I’m reminded of a line from the Lord of the Rings, “All we have to decide is what to do with the time given us.” There’s a lot of... Continue Reading →
I promised myself I wouldn't write about the weather this week since my last two Friday posts talked about my favorite season. It's been a busy week, and I found time almost got away from me. TGIF, but where did the week go? The Steve Miller Band released a song back in the 70s which... Continue Reading →
Fall-like weather finally arrived this week and it was more than welcomed! As you can see the temp when I arrived at work yesterday morning was a comfortable 54 degrees. Made for a great start to a beautiful day. Listening to Bob Seger also helped. 🙂 This has been a busy week and once again,... Continue Reading →
Hello, Readers. I don't have a Friday link post this week, and some of you may have noticed I didn't have one last Friday. I plan to get back to that but in the meantime, wanted to share the reason. Forgive me, if I seem to go about it in a round-about way, but I... Continue Reading →
Last Saturday, my husband and I attended a reunion. A very special reunion. Attendees came from all walks of life and were of various ages. All were there to celebrate a special anniversary. For some, it was one year, others five-ten years, and still some celebrated twenty-plus years. Confused yet? In October 1993, my husband... Continue Reading →
Changes are inevitable. Some are expected, others are sudden. Just as we have four seasons, there are seasons in life. My husband works evening shift during the school year and that means I have to adjust to him not being here. Most of the time, I don't have a problem but this time I did.... Continue Reading →
Not far from my home is a local park where locals often gather to watch their kids play soccer. There are also tennis courts, picnic tables, outdoor grills, and even a covered pavilion that can be used for large gatherings. The park has several walking trails, one of which circles the perimeter of a small... Continue Reading →
It's been a quiet week for the most part. The dust isn't as noticible, the triple digit temps have somewhat subsided, and I'm looking forward to a four-day weekend. It appears a third cat has found himself a home with us. I began seeing a black cat hanging around. Acted like he was at home.... Continue Reading →
I hate having to attend early morning meetings. It's not the meeting, per se, but the fact I have to be at work an hour earlier than usual. I don't wake up any earlier but I miss the time I have in the mornings to collect my thoughts. That seems to throw my entire day... Continue Reading →
I always look forward to Fridays. The end of the week, the start of the upcoming weekend. However, I hate to see this week wrap up. Why? I've been on vacation. My husband and I have spent the past three days in a cabin near Broken Bow, Oklahoma. Not our fanciest vacation and certainly not... Continue Reading →
