I think if I was alone, I would move to coastal North Carolina and live in a small town. I can thank Nicholas Sparks for that thought – he’s my favorite author. I just love all of his romance novels. They’re good, but not trashy, which is why I like them. I just finished ‘The Choice’ [...]

I had an awesome weekend!!! Saturday was my Birthday, and I spent most of it hauling wheelbarrows full of dirt from my drive-way to our front retaining wall area. I told Dwight that I’ve never had to work so hard on my Birthday before! He rewarded me by getting a babysitter & taking me out [...]

1. Catch up on laundry.
2. Food shopping. Take-out is getting expensive & sucking a hole out of our budget!
3. Make sure Nick & Jess have all their soccer equipment ready for the weekend.
4. Mow the backyard – it’s a jungle after all that rain!

Rainbow Connection Lyrics
Why are there so many songs about rainbows
and what’s on the other side?
Rainbows are visions, but only illusions,
and rainbows have nothing to hide.
So we’ve been told and some choose to believe it.
I know they’re wrong, wait and see.
Someday we’ll find it, the rainbow connection.
The lovers, the dreamers and me.
Who said that every wish [...]

…makes me feel fine, blowing through the jasmine in my mind.” Actually, the summer breeze put me to sleep in my chaise in the shade today. I can’t even remember the last time I allowed myself to just rest & enjoy the day! Of course, it helped that Jess was out on a play date [...]

My front porch is a 12′ x 10′ slab of concrete with an overhang. It’s one of those places I go to be crazy, especially during a thunderstorm. Since I live at the end of a cul-du-sac, there is virtually no traffic on my street. I can sit on my porch at night in solitude. [...]
