    It’s about Moderation

    We could all do with a reminder that it is not eating that is a sin, but gluttony. Not one beer but many that make you drunk. It’s not saving as much money as you can but greed that is dangerous. Moderation in all things, humans. Make it your life rule.

  • Waiting

    Waiting

    Sometimes you have to wait. Waiting is not fun if you think it’s not fun. It’s all in your head. Patience can be fun if you set your mind to it. Now once you figure that out, let me know how you did it. I am not patient at all.

  • Change a little

    Change a little

    If we want something to change we can do small things to make it happen or we can wait. Waiting might be the thing to do for a little bit, but if you can do something to improve your situation, even a small thing, do it. Control what you can in your life to get…

  • It’s not about the stuff.

    It’s not about the stuff.

    Life is not about things. Things are replaceable. It is the love and memories that we should pass down. You should be living life as if every day is a reason to pull out the good dishes. Why are you keeping all that stuff put away to use once or twice a year? So what…

  • Why so Snappy? Pt 2

    Why so Snappy? Pt 2

    Why do we snap off at the people we love most? Sometimes I wonder why we speak so short and rudely to our family members. It’s like we don’t care that they have feelings. I don’t mean to bark but I do. Always after I use a harsh tone of voice I feel so bad.…

  • What’s that?

    What’s that?

    I’m old? You better be careful, teenager I’ll wash tour mouth out with soap. Ok, not really but old? I don’t think I’m old. Don’t look at me like that! Just because my hair is gray and my skin is lined doesn’t mean I’m old. And don’t say a word about my behavior! How am…

  • It’s a Concern

    It’s a Concern

    Humans don’t realize how fragile their health can become over time and as we age. It’s concerning when the doctor says “I have your test results.” For a brief second my heart flutters and my stomach leaps. All we can do is what is in our reach to do. Eat better. Move your body. Get…

  • What’s my name?

    What’s my name?

    When the days are rough and you are so exhausted that you can’t even remember who you are, it’s nice to have that one person to come home too. My husband always has dinner waiting and arms to wrap around me when I come home. He knows me like no other human knows me. He…

    I’m over 2020

    Certainly there have been worse years, but I can’t think of any. 2020 has been enough for 2 years. Personally my life is amazing and happy. It’s the external things outside of my family unit that won’t leave us alone. Covid, other illnesses, surgeries, the big C word, lawyers, book sales, finances and teenagers with…

    I just don’t want to hear you say you can’t.

    Stop it. Yes you can. Get up and do the things you need to do. Then do the things you want to do. Yes…you can.
