The New Year, 2026 is only ten weeks away. That's crazy talk, isn't it? When we were eighteen and nineteen years old in the 70's, we never even looked into the 2000's. They didn't exist, but now? Now we are twenty-five years in. (gasp) I love our life. We've been through the good, the bad,… Continue reading Moving Forward (Free Chapel)
I left off the last blog by telling you (confessing) how whiny I was. Poor TJ. I have to admit, a lot of this was because I was tired. One night when rain was coming at us, I became afraid to close my eyes to sleep. I made a mistake and looked at the weather… Continue reading Drifting Along Like a Tumbling Tumbleweed… Part 2
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)
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
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)
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 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
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?
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
Hi! Did you all know that the song Down in the Valley has another name? Apparently, because the last verse references Birmingham jail, the song's secondary name is just that. Birmingham Jail. Those are the kinds of fun things you'll learn as you read along with me. Trivia. You'll be the Trivial Pursuit champion learning… Continue reading Valley So Low…
I'm bragging a little, today. I got a lovely email from a woman in the UK. She bought my Memories of War series. She told me ... well this is what she said in her email: I just wanted to drop a quick note to say how much I loved your Memories of War series.… Continue reading You Put the Song in My Heart
She isn't 5'2" yet... But she's the sweetest child. Elektra. Plus that silly dog, Ruby Sue. This photo reminds me of another with Elektra's sister, Simone. I have to push a photo of them together because they are super similar. Simone walking another of my cocker spaniels... 20 years ago. As soon as I do… Continue reading Five Foot Two…
There used to be be this little toggle on WordPress blogs. You could choose to publish your posts at the top of your page. But in the genius minds of software folks, they've moved the option to someplace next to impossible to find. Apparently, you have to publish the article first, before you can assign… Continue reading Please, WordPress, Make My Life Harder
Hi, everyone! Yes, I still blog on TJ's and my website, the Mirror Gate Chronicles! I'm also using Substack to reach more people. You can join Substack for free. Then you can follow me and TJ through all our antics. I am hoping to hear our trailer is all fixed up next week. Then all… Continue reading Pack Up All My Cares…and woe
Right at this moment, I'm having a small issue with WordPress. You used to tell them to put your blog at the top of your page by clicking a box. They've changed the language so there's a toggle called sticky. You toggle it on to keep your blog at the top of your page. Good… Continue reading Hot Fun in the Summer Time
