Day 26
“Hold on to your slip, darling.” Life is changing at a rapid rate. One minute you’re comfy in your circle skirt and Mary Jane’s; the next minute you’re comparing mortgage rates and hiring a realtor. Seems that is how life is though. When important things happen they happen fast. A big part of adulting is…

Day 24
When life pulls the rug out from under you and you land on your butt, look up….God has you. He will stand you up, dust off your butt and point your feet in the direction you need to go. I must hold onto this truth right now. If I don’t I will be a sadness…

Day 14
I am feeling a bit overwhelmed. I look at all the authors floating through my newsfeeds and say, “I am lost in a sea of headshots and book covers.” What makes me special? All these storytellers and word spinners think they are special too. We are all correct and terribly wrong in the same moment.…

Day 13
Life is a cake walk for some and digging ditches for others. I’ve been at both ends of the line. Today life is amazing, less ditches and more cake. If I could telepathically send all my life experience and common sense to my children and grandchildren that would be great. How do you share experience…

Day 10
I have noticed that I could probably wear a different dress or skirt for a month maybe longer and not wear the same one twice. My husband has about 1/4 the amount of pants in comparison. Where as we both have enough shirts, T-shirts, business casual shirts, to wear for about three months without a…

Day 7
I am so very sad today. Not because of who is my President. I alone can’t control that. I am not even sad about the crazy behavior at the US capitol. We, Americans have been known as rebel rousers since the beginning. Even with our reputation of anachronism, we are Americans first. I have always…

Day 5
I became a librarian nine years ago. I have been at my current job for exactly five years to the day. I was in management for years in a job I hated. The stress was literally physically and mentally killing me. So I simply put my health and happiness first. I quit my 64k a…

Day 4
Today I’m at work. Well, I love what I do so is it really work? I’m around books all day. The worst part of my job is my commute. Life is much better if you are doing something that you enjoy during the day. Wasting days in a miserable relationship or job will make the…

Day 2
Laundry and tea. Turmeric Bliss tea to be exact. Dirty laundry is a private matter altogether. No one wants to see your dirty underwear or socks. I do not understand why people take to social media to air all their dirty laundry. Not just when they have a disagreement with some other human but when…

Day 1
I don’t like cooking. Baking I find enjoyable. Today I cooked a huge meal. On the menu: Glazed ham with cherries and pineapple, turnips, mac & cheese, cornbread, potato salad and blackeyed peas. White cake with fluffy white frosting. I have always said cooking is an art and baking is a science. Baking is all…
