Come To Your Senses – #2 “Listen Up”
Our electricity was turned off yesterday for several hours as they were working on some things at our house. I was running errands for what I thought was going to be the time we would be without power. But when I got home we still had no electricity. It was so quiet...
Come To Your Senses – #1 Sight
After writing my last blog about “Pappy” slowing down and taking in the sights, I began thinking about all of our senses and how we are so busy we just don’t enjoy life the way we should. This morning I decided to turn off the radio, not talk on the cell phone and...
Just Taking a Leisurely Stroll

Heaven-a-rama
Have you ever been to a Home-a-rama event ? I've never been to one but want to try to go this year. From what I understand it is a tour of very nice homes where people can "dream" and get ideas for decorating their own homes. The majority of the time, I think the...
Let Your Flame Flicker Brightly
I love to burn candles. I love the little bit of light that it gives off in a dark room. I love the smell of a Christmas Cookie or Buttercream flavored candle. When I am ready to extinguish the candle, I just place the original glass lid on the candle and it...
