And now, the end is near. We traveled each and every highway... Not literally, but figuratively, and we did it our way! Wow. We had a great and a not so great trip. Life is the same, right? Some parts are great, and others... well they aren't so great. TJ and I tried to only… Continue reading Drifting Along Like a Tumbling Tumbleweed…

Come Fly With Me (& TJ)
Yesterday was Independence Day! Happy birthday to the USA, & also to our personal firecracker, Sonja, our daughter. We had hamburgers & birthday cake. Then when they left (the family) TJ & I hunkered down with our dog, Ruby. I had to give her some Calm medicine, then cover her with a weighted blanket so… Continue reading Come Fly With Me (& TJ)
Honey, I’m Home & I Had a Hard Day
Thanks for the title, Shania Twain! We went to Montana to see Granddaughter #1, taking Granddaughter #2 with us. They are half sisters. We also saw our friend, Barb McNey, whom some of you know from when we all worked together at General Dynamics. We walked with Barb along the Bitterroot River in Hamilton, Montana.… Continue reading Honey, I’m Home & I Had a Hard Day
Come Saturday Morning…
(I'm going away with my friends (in two weeks)) I can hardly wait. TJ & I are taking Princess #2 to see Princess #1 in Montana. I can hardly wait. We haven't seen her and Prince Charming for about a year and a half. I think. Princess #2 misses Princess #1. A lot. Prince Charming… Continue reading Come Saturday Morning…
Ooh, I’m Drivin’ My Life Away
I'm not a big partier. More like a person who likes peaceful routine. I do enjoy family get togethers, but afterwards, I need quiet to re-energize. With regards to being a partier, I haven't always been this way. I am, after all, and ENFJ-A personality. I am the protagonist/antagonist person. But since the cancer, quiet… Continue reading Ooh, I’m Drivin’ My Life Away
I’ve Been Everywhere (Man)
We finished out Spring events with a bang. Going to Cottonwood for the Verde Valley Comic Expo is a blast every year. They haven't updated the website for the new photos, yet, but I'm sure they will soon. We had a wonderful time. Ruby Sue came as Under Dog. She was very well behaved, sitting… Continue reading I’ve Been Everywhere (Man)
I’m a Traveling (Wo)man…
We had a fabulous, successful time at the Tombstone Festival of Western Books, last Friday! I wish some of you had been able to make the trip. I want to thank Doug Hocking for inviting us the last two years. The big photo is the Chiricahua Mountains where Cochise's stronghold was. Because Tombstone is almost… Continue reading I’m a Traveling (Wo)man…
I’ve Got Sunshine on a Cloudy Day!
The clouds are unlikely anytime soon, but I am praying daily for God to let the rain come down abundantly... sometime soon would be great. That being said, TJ & I have an event this Sunday! AND the event is in Chandler. Also, it's inside! Chandler Library Local Authors Event: 22 S Delaware Street, Chandler, AZ… Continue reading I’ve Got Sunshine on a Cloudy Day!
How Great Though Art
I usually post generic blogs but my heart wants to sing about how merciful God is. Psalm 8 speaks about how great the heavens that God created, are. Even in Phoenix, when I look up at the stars... the planets... I realize something greater than I is at work. My whole being wants to praise… Continue reading How Great Though Art
The Wind Blows Memories
The year is over tomorrow night. The wind blows memories across my mind. So many things have passed us by this year. We have new things happening as we go forward in time. A lot of good memories. Some bad memories, but this year, TJ and I got off pretty much unscathed. We were healthy.… Continue reading The Wind Blows Memories
I’m Dreaming of a White Christmas
I love this featured photo. I used to have this lovely wreath, all tinsel and balls. But as time wears out our bodies, so time does to our stuff. The Bible says Jesus told His disciples, in Matthew 19-20, “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moths and vermin destroy, and where… Continue reading I’m Dreaming of a White Christmas
The Heat is On – Aye, Arizona!
Have I ever told you how much I love Arizona? This state is beautiful. You can drive from Mexico at the southern end, to Utah at the northern end. The time would take about eight hours. In the south, the deserts reign, wild from the border up to around Prescott or Payson. The mountains climb… Continue reading The Heat is On – Aye, Arizona!
All of Me, Why Not Take All of Me?
I love that song. My Dad used to sing all these old songs when I was a kid. My voice isn't the best, but I still sang along. We all did. Dad, Mom, me, and the barfing kid. Dad would take us on road trips for a few hours. We would drive into the desert,… Continue reading All of Me, Why Not Take All of Me?
When Will I See You Again
I love the autumn. I love the colors, the cool weather, the excitement of the holidays coming up. I am able to go outdoors during the day without feeling as if my skin is searing off in the nuclear sunshine of Phoenix. Many, many people love the heat, but not I. I want weather where… Continue reading When Will I See You Again
