Thank God for my computer calendar. Really! I mean that literally. If it weren’t for my computer calendar and the reminders you can send yourself, I would have missed a meeting this morning at the church office. I don’t think God would have appreciated that.
When I woke up this morning, it was a rainy, raw [...]

I need IV caffeine or something . . .

Since we got home from Colorado last week, I can’t seem to find my energy. I’m starting to wonder if the airlines lost it in some luggage.
I suspect it has something to do with the adjustment to altitude in combination with my fibromyalgia and weight. I had a difficult time adjusting to the higher altitudes [...]
More Noise Complaints

That scraping noise you heard was me, dragging out my soap box so I can rant a bit about the noisy neighbors.
I was sitting here at the computer in my living room, reading news and responding to e-mail. It was a quiet, peaceful, relaxing morning on my dead end street – until about 20 minutes [...]

What on earth could you have been thinking when you wrote what you did in your book? Could you really not have known what kind of response there would be – especially if you have dear, old friends who have a child with autism? Or was it your hope to gain added book sales from [...]
Rat Race, Here I Come!

What do you think of when you think of the ideal vacation? I personally think of sitting in a comfortable chair, with a terrific view, reading a great book. This one is possible for me. The second thought I have is hiking through a beautiful forest or meadow to emerge at some fabulous vista, where [...]
Was I ever high yesterday!!!

Okay, all you pot heads and druggies – sorry to disappoint you, but that’s not the kind of high I’m talking about. The only time I’ve been that kind of high was about 35 years ago when a doctor gave me Tylenol with codeine and I felt like I was floating above my body. I [...]
I Should Be . . . .

I should be writing about my vacation so far. It’s been really great!!
I should be writing about our day spent in Aspen, CO. I’m a long-time John Denver fan and wanted to visit to connect with the place that fed his spirit. I enjoyed the market/street fair that was going on the day of our [...]
Delta Delivered!

Usually, travel days are tough on me. I usually end up feeling exhausted and frustrated by all the hoops necessary to air travel these days. Just the fact that an over-sized woman like me has to take off her shoes and put them back on in the midst of a crowd is unpleasant. When you [...]
Leavin’ on a Jet Plane

Finally, after months of having our flights changed by as little as 2 minutes, we are getting of the ground later this morning.
We’re heading out to Colorado, a place loved by singer John Denver, so I thought the title appropriate. In fact, on our way through Aspen and Snowmass in a few days, we’ll stop [...]
