Home



“Home is where you go to find solace from the ever changing chaos, 

to find love within the confines of a heartless world, 

and to be reminded that no matter how far you wander, 

there will always be something waiting when you return.” 

― Kendal Rob


Coming home again after being gone
for a few days is always a good thing:
your own bed, your own pillow,
your own routine.  
Sadly it was back to work the next 
morning in too few hours!

Always nice to visit family; 
mom is well, we had a blast doing all
the things that girls do:  lunches out,
visiting, watching movies, and shopping! 

We were good bargain hunters and got
many bargains!  My suitcase was stuffed
twice as full as when I left!  Thank goodness
when I pack, I pack light.  I keep essentials,
a few clothes and a spare pair of tennies
so those things don't take up room in my bag.

It's weird going 'home' - my parents have lived
in the same house since 1966.  When I'm home,
I feel like the girl I used to be.  And yet, I'm the
grown up and take care of mom.... 
going home can be a strange feeling,
and one I wouldn't change - ever!

Just Jeans


I have often said that I wish I had invented blue jeans: 

the most spectacular, the most practical, 

the most relaxed and nonchalant. 

They have expression, modesty, sex appeal, simplicity

- all I hope for in my clothes.

Someone said
"Denim is a way of life"
and to be frank, it's my
go-to nearly every day.
Nothing else says comfort and ease
(and who doesn't love all the pockets!) 
Just sportin' an old comfy pair on this
Superbowl Sunday while I zip around
getting chores done. 

If you're into the game, 
I hope your team wins!

Be Happy


“The real things haven't changed. 

It is still best to be honest and truthful; 

to make the most of what we have; 

to be happy with simple pleasures; 

and have courage when things go wrong.” 

― Laura Ingalls Wilder
