Diary- August 5, 2008 Fourth Entry
Tuesday, August 5th, 2008I really look up to Robin McGraw, who is married to Dr. Phil.
Robin, at her husband’s request, sits every day in the studio audience of the show, ” Dr Phil”.
Robin is also the author of a wonderful book titled, ” Inside My Heart.”
Robin seems to have discovered the art of being an ever supportive spouse […]
Country Camp Quilt
Monday, August 4th, 2008We were on the road by 6:30, not quite the 5 am departure time he had originally said.
But that is why I had told him to call and wake me up when he was actually leaving his house.
Unfortunately, I woke up every hour on the hour, anticipating that it was time for his call.
At 3:30, […]
There is an “I” in LIFE.
Wednesday, July 23rd, 2008The world today is not an easy one to live in.
I find that it is so easy to lose heart and hope in the midst of hard work and in the name of success.
Even when I am not in the midst of an all out identity crisis, I always have questions.
I try so hard to keep in mind who I am […]
Pray: It works.
Wednesday, July 23rd, 2008“People may refuse our love or reject our message, but they are defenseless against our prayers.

Suddenly I See
Thursday, July 10th, 2008Life happens so very quickly.
It seems like just yesterday I was a nine year old girl, presiding over a pretend wedding in my backyard; with a pillow case on my head and a humble bouquet of tattered dandelions in my hand.
Now, when I look at wedding magazines, I have moved past the wistful wondering stage to a point […]
Something About Summer
Wednesday, July 2nd, 2008I have spent eight days away from this site and the absence was longer than I like.
I am still without a home computer. I have not replaced my old system- still.
Only at times like this moment when my I miss and wish to communicate with all of you, my Readers, do I miss my […]
A*Maze*Zing!
Monday, June 16th, 2008Though the term “aging gracefully” is a term most often applied to those approaching significant milestones of a numerical kind, I am discovering it to be a practice necessary for all stages of life.
The daily circus that life so easily becomes often requires that we have the focus, balance and agility of a tight […]
The Motherload
Saturday, May 10th, 2008“Mother May I?” was a favorite pastime of mine when my siblings and I were children.
My older sister, Patricia, was the bossiest and so usually got to be “mother.”

The purpose of mother is not only to […]
