I made it!
Soon I’ll get to see Sunshine! Sunshine is the nickname I gave to Beth’s girlfriend Erin because Erin has a beautiful smile and personality. She really lights up the room when she walks in it.
I’m in Bossier City, Louisiana sitting in my room at the Super 8 Motel. I drove a […]

Just a quick post to say “Thank you!” to Franz, Chris, and Mari for letting me crash their Thanksgiving bash!
What started as plans for a quick meeting between Franz and I turned into a day of fun, laughter, and new friends for me.
Here are a few things I was reminded of yesterday:
Steal a few […]

Do you believe in ghosts?
I do. Not many people know that about me and many are probably surprised to learn it. But it’s true. Although I’ve never had a ghostly experience myself, I have several friends that have.
Last night, in fact, when I was visiting my mother-in-law for the last time before I go to […]

With only two and a half weeks left before I leave Maine for four months, I’m spending as much time with friends and family as possible.
Today I had the pleasure of spending the day with my good friend Dot. Dot loves geo-caching. If you who aren’t familiar with this treasure hunting activity visit […]

Saturday was an amazing day!
The morning was spent running errands with my husband, the noontime hour was spent sitting on my front steps reading a good novel, and the afternoon was spent having tea with friends.
Ahhhh…
Wait a minute… I don’t drink tea. I don’t like tea. What was I doing spending a Saturday afternoon […]

Last night I had the priviledge of viewing my friend Peggy’s art portfolio from a class she took last semester. She’s made it clear many times that she’s not artistic. I believed her until last night.
Now she’s taking a creative writing class and she was positively gushing over how talented she is! […]

I’ve written and talked about sharing your dreams (goals) with people who will help you achieve them. And by help I mean people who will support and encourage you as much as people who have actual talents or resources to help you accomplish your goals.
But today I’m going to encourage you to share your sleeping […]

Oops, I did it again!
The other day I fell for the old I’m-not-talking-to-you-I’m-on-my-cellphone trick. I was in the grocery store and approaching a woman who smiled and said “Hey, how’s it going?”
I smiled back and said, “I’m great! How are you?”
The smile disappeared from her face and she practically growled at me. “I’m not talking […]

A weird thing happened to me today. I was working on one of my major 2006 goals “Do a whole house cleaning” and found a sealed notecard on my desk. It had the name of a friend written on the front of the envelope. I knew I hadn’t written the notecard within the past few […]

Have you ever forgotten to do something? Have you ever promised to get information to someone or ask someone to do something?
If you’re like me, more often than not something slips through the cracks and gets overlooked.
I really appreciate it when people send me a note or give me a call with a gentle […]
