Keys of Life

Does anybody else, like me, keep keys that you don't know what they go to - but you're afraid to get rid of..... If I could just find the right one, I could get rid of this static & get on with my life......

T Day ....

...... a pause in the madness of life - kind of. I'm observing most people to be in a dream-like state - just another way to avoid life's realities. Still, pauses are good - enjoy yours!

Rugs & Life

What will it become?
I have decided Rug Making is like life - or at least like mine. Northern winters do not mesh with me regaining balance & strength. So, I am searching for my next life adventure & resting place. Where will it be? Enjoy your adventures!!

Car Wash Dyslexia


It’s a well-known fact that my visual perception (especially driving & parking) leaves much to be desired (because I should have been left handed – but that’s a story for another day) – Getting lined up on those car wash rails is always a challenge, however, following humans pointing I do quite well, until….. this young man kept pointing right & I tried as best as I could, but the tires were making this awful noise & I kept saying “I’m trying, I’m trying.” Finally, he got it & casually switched pointing directions & gave me one of those “you crazy woman" looks. I gave it right back, well, not really – I have a soft spot for people with dyslexia. I will, however, find a different car wash place, or maybe I won’t, I do have that soft spot……

Old Friends

With life-long bending restrictions, I have resorted to slip-ons. Good bye my old friends.

HBD

Happy Birthday to my daughter - treat yourself - you deserve it. I am having a piece of cake in your honor - chocolate of course - or make that a brownie with fudge icing & mac n cheese, the adult version!

Time Out......

Happy Bones

Just ran across, "Make me to hear joy & gladness, so the bones which you have broken can rejoice enthusiastically" (Ps 51:10).  I am still grinning - picturing my my bones, in particular my leg, rejoicing. May all your bones be happy today!

Sunsets

Some muted with soft pastels
Some with bright red hues poking through dark clouds
Some barely perceptible
Some no clouds, just the sun sinking
Some not observable
Some breathtaking bursts of red, yellow, orange

Sunsets - all different & all beautiful - like people. Enjoy yours today!

The Lake

I've been on Lake Michigan where temperatures were in the 60's & 70's - unheard of in November. Ecstatic to know I can walk on a beach - a little scary being off balance & knowing if I fall, I can't get up (I don't have one of those magic buttons that bring help). Looking forward to the day when I can walk normally - I want to dispel that look of pity from others. In short, I want to stop acting my age and get back to being normal.

Time Out

I've been on a self-imposed spiritual retreat, walking the beach, listening to the surf, soaking in nature, reading from all genres. Truth can be found anywhere & it is incumbent upon us to explore - take what is useful/ truth & disard the rest.

Perhaps seeking Spiritual is what happens when one is faced with unexpected significant life alterations. Whatever the case, I've resolved to take two weeks of vacation every year. If you haven't had yours yet, I urge you to do so, before you hear words from medical professionals you thought you'd never hear.
