I do not know at what velocity I hit the post with my head. Alongside the stars, I saw the cus words flying in front of my vision. They also spewed out of my mouth. Interesting how pain causes nano-second responses. Living with someone with PTSD, I never know when or where or how … Continue reading Time to heal

Spring day perspective
I am not quite sure about this… it is kinda steep, I might fall over or come careening back down at an undisclosed speed and end in a big lump at the bottom and mess up all my pretty markings. Come on! You can do it, dig deep we are almost there. Up, up, just … Continue reading Spring day perspective
You opened my letter
I remember as a little girl, my Aunt Vica in Kansas and my godmother Joanne would send birthday cards and with money! Some would have animated pictures of balloons or animals, and they all seems so sweet and made me smile. As I got older I understood the value of sending thank you, birthday, congratulations, … Continue reading You opened my letter
Idyllic Living
That sounds so idyllic. Moving to the country, the fresh air, living off the land, no traffic, fewer taxes, etc. My observation is yes, less air pollution but not always so sweet smelling if there are animals or some neighbors in the vicinity. You never know who might be spraying what, or watering brown liquid … Continue reading Idyllic Living
A dream
I don’t usually remember my dreams, but I love when I occasionally do. My all-time favorite came from my sweet mother who left this earth five years ago. Mom was almost 94 years old. After an aneurism and quick stay in the hospital, when it was her time, she died quickly with five of us … Continue reading A dream
The Musical Cats night happened as a result of a terrifying act.
It was 9:33pm and thankfully both our cats were safely inside, lounging on our bed. There was a horrendous ruckus outside the bedroom window that sounded like howling, yipping and screaming as it finally faded to the distance. It is almost a full moon, maybe that has something to do with the nocturnal escapades. And … Continue reading The Musical Cats night happened as a result of a terrifying act.
New Mouse
I had to buy a new mouse today. What was wrong with the old one you say? I don’t know if it was dust bunnies or crumbs in the head, But I was ready to throw the old one under the bed. I don’t want my frustration to make me cry, I like things to … Continue reading New Mouse
Life scenarios
Sally and Johnny went for a walk down the long country road. Her hand in his and his hand in hers. The sun was shining bright as the two made their way towards the creek. Two lanes were well worn from the tractors that had been working all summer making the silt fine as powdered … Continue reading Life scenarios
Ashes
Our friend Terry died. My husband had known he and his wife Kim since high school. Kim and Terry had been high school sweethearts. And then the Vietnam war happened and life. The two married other people, had kids and lived separate lives. But, in the last 5 years, they reconnected and had another passionate, … Continue reading Ashes
Put your mask on first
You know how we are instructed on airplanes to put our air masks on first, well the same is true for our health - be it physical or mental. When we are strong, besides being more resilient and energetic enough to get the task at hand accomplished, we are also great examples. You never know … Continue reading Put your mask on first
The Journey Begins
Thanks for joining me! Good company in a journey makes the way seem shorter. — Izaak Walton
Safety Security
I do my best to control my surroundings, my bubble of personal space that I do my best to fill with love, peace and rock & roll. Truth be told I am more apt to have meditation, soothing music or smooth jazz versus rock and roll, and my point is to have a nurturing atmosphere … Continue reading Safety Security
