  • Dinner

    Story Building Memories Chris came for dinner tonight.  Spaghetti and meatballs. His favorite.  For a moment,  It was like he was home,  Not living far away,  One of mine,  At my table,  Sheltered by watchful eyes,  And listening ears,  Ready to speak words,  Of affirmation and,  Healing if need be.  My son.  Just loved talking, …

  • Year of the Bullet Journal

    I started out this year with a writer’s retreat. A few solid days of blissful writing away at a spacious bed and breakfast with a small group of likeminded writers. What a gift to spend hours writing without anyone around who was wondering when I be done, or if I would like to go out…
