It's just a little past St. Patrick's Day, and every where I look, I'm starting to see signs of happiness.

A New Chance

So, everyone is celebrating a New Year. I'm celebrating a New Decade.
I can't even begin to explain the kind of stress that I've been under for the last 10 years. Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining- just taking an assessment, if you will. It...

There've been so many times that I've wanted to write, but my hands have been swollen since last July.
I've been to the doctor(s); one told me to "learn to live with it", another prescribed a mega dose of prednisone. I took the prednisone, and it...

Rainy Summer Day in June

The day is gentle, today. The sky is overcast, and the badly needed, much anticipated rain is coming down slowly- at times, as a mist. We haven't had any rain here for over a month, and the earth was starting to look parched and wrinkled. The robi...

This won't be long-trying to type one handed is for the birds! Takes too long, too many mistakes, etc.,etc., etc.!
I've still been here, cruising around and looking at different groups, and some profiles. Can't wait to write about some of my obser...

All day today, all I've done is think about Dad. It's been a bittersweet day. I have to say that writing about him all week this week has helped my quite a bit.

So many things happened during the 50+ years of knowing my Dad. Not unlike alot of people, the memories are mostly good, a few bad. It's funny how, as time passes, it's harder to remember the bad, easier to recall the good.

I was about 17 years old, and I was home with Mom, working on clearing out and packing up the contents of our attic, as our house had been sold. After years of hearing all types of equipment, motorcycles, and cars go past our house, I knew the sou...

Yesterday, I started blogging about my Dad in honor of his birthday this Friday. Hopefully, this won't be as long-winded as yesterdays post.

I thought I would dedicate this week to stories about my Dad. I lost him in 2004, and never have I missed anyone as much as I miss him. He would have been 90 years old on February 13th.
