Two friends and I met for lunch this morning to enjoy some time together and catch up on life events. As best as we can remember, we last saw each other in May or maybe even April. We had a lot to talk about over lunch and lingered well after Frappuccino's were finished. During our … Continue reading What Have You Been Doing?
I had this Sunday brunch inspiration while driving home from early church. Remember to find time to relax and enjoy life; it’s too short to miss out on moments of peace and happiness!
Frantic at 40 quilt by Robyn Lieberman, Tyler Texas Have you ever felt like this? I think that's how I feel right now, but not frantic. I'm fragmented.

I know about it, but haven't devoted time to learn to use it. I still switch back to Classic Editor. However, today Classic was MIA and … Continue reading Deciphering Changes That I Don’t Want To Make
Winter appears to be almost over where I live. We've had 3 snow falls and record breaking cold in spite of the fact that it was predicted to be a La Nina winter with warmer temperatures and dry conditions.

One more day and August 2020 will be finished and we will turn the calendar to September. As we all know, nothing will change and we will move through another month just as we always have done.

Being informed is a virtue. It helps us make better decisions and encourages us to take action. Getting hooked on an endless scroll of media inputs is not the same as being informed.
