Time for a cuppa (Virtual Tea Party November 2020)

Here we are once again, and it’s time for a cuppa at the Virtual Tea Party hosted by Su Leslie over at Zimmerbitch. Wow, where does the time go? This month I’m going for quick and easy, which admittedly is what I do most days. Even after running my business from home for approximately five …

Silently seeking hope

There’s so much stress, anger, tragedy, and noise going on in the world lately, and of course, it’s all turned up to a deafening roar online. It’s overwhelming to me. It feels like hope, acceptance, and support are only a dim light at the end of an infinite dark tunnel. And admittedly, it’s getting to …

Man’s bullshit

Every piece of this is man’s bullshit. They call this war a loud over the land, but they made the weather and then they stand in the rain and say, “shit! It’s rainin!” Ruby Thewes from Cold Mountain as played by Reneé Zellweger I enjoyed the movie Cold Mountain and was impressed with Reneé Zellweger’s …

Maybe it’s time to decide

So, maybe it’s time to decide. Is this the life you want to live? Is this the person you want to love? Is this the best you can be? Can you be stronger? Kinder? More compassionate? Decide. Breathe in. Breathe out. Decide. -Amanda Ricks As part of my current reassessment of my life, including all …

thank you for lending me, you image quote

Thank you, for lending me, you (Quote)

“If I could sit across the porch from God, I’d thank him for lending me, you.” I first read a quote very similar, if not the same as the one above, on a greeting card when I was in my twenties. I bought it and gave it to my then-long-time boyfriend. He was my first …

Debbie Jones shared a lovely poem about being kinder to ourselves.  I was immediately drawn to it and felt that the message was a universal one that everyone could benefit from hearing.

The Tree of Life with Benchman ( with Trev Jones @puntoman )

In 2014 I shared a photograph that I thought was not only cool but also a beautiful representation of The Tree of Life. Recently, I shared the photo again on Facebook, and my friend Trev Jones offered a comment that Benchman would look great in the picture too. I quickly agreed. Although I’m a bit …
