Moving day.
Have you ever had a time when you were going to re-do a room so, you think, ‘this is a good time to sort things’? I don’t consider myself a hoarder but, I do tend to hang onto some things that have sentimental value and, after a while, you have a lot of ‘stuff’. …

Hello November.
Well as November slides in you might think that it would get colder but, it isn’t, it is 15 degrees warmer. I am glad I am not a weatherman in Kentucky. You never know what it is going to do, even with you high-tech equipment. Do you like flowers? I love them, especially wild ones. …

The nature of things.
Nature has always fascinated me from my early years to now. I am still amazed by something in nature nearly every day. There are so many patterns and mysterious things to observe. Do you know what this is? It’s fennel, used in cooking. When you cut up vegetables or fruits do you look at what…

When you were a kid did you play cowboys and Indians? I can’t even calculate how many miles I rode on my stick horse. I don’t remember killing any Indians but we had so many experiences and a lot of fun. We would race around chasing each other and firing imaginary guns. We got so…
