I sit here realizing summer is almost over. Parts of me are relieved. This has been a rough year. Too many family losses. Too many friends gone. We still have several months ahead of us. For that reason, I want to honor God and my Uncle Edgar at this time. Edgar Ajamie was born July… Continue reading See You in September

The Heat is On!
So yes, this is Phoenix, Arizona. The heat is oppressive. We're expecting from 110° to 117° for the next week. If I say kill me now, I'm not being literal but seriously, this is too hot for human beings. We walk our dogs most mornings. We go about a mile, depending how everyone is feeling.… Continue reading The Heat is On!
Hot Fun in the Summertime
We know summer has arrived in Phoenix when the temps pass 110°. Before the summer solstice. Fortunately, the high pressure system has passed for the time being. All that being said, the temps soared to 122°, June 26, 1990. I hope never to see those temps again. I had the worst migraine that day. The… Continue reading Hot Fun in the Summertime
I Get the Blues
I feel like I should apologize for being absent, but on the other hand, life's been a little awful, a bit complicated for a couple of months. To begin with, TJ brought home a puppy. He said she was his. (LOL) She is mostly his, but babies still need a lot of night-time care that… Continue reading I Get the Blues
Why is it so Easy
I write lyrics.. Why is it so Easy is a song/poem I wrote. If only I played an instrument, I could add my own music. I tried one of the AI music forums, but they cost too many $$$ for our budget. (sigh) This doesn't matter, I just thought I'd mention that I do this.… Continue reading Why is it so Easy
I Won’t Be Troubled
Good morning, March! Did you know March 1, is the meteorological date for Spring? This is the date the weathermen use. The rest of us are looking at March 20~. Pretty funny, right? Well, I started my blog with the title, I Won't Be Troubled, because we are into the bombing of Iran by two… Continue reading I Won’t Be Troubled
“Thankful n’ Thoughtful”
Two weeks until Thanksgiving (in the USA). I've been pondering, thinking, considering everything I have to be thankful for. Mostly, I'm thankful for Jesus Christ. He died on a cross as a sacrifice of redemption for our sins. For my sins. The concept is beyond grasping. Next I am thankful for my parents who, even… Continue reading “Thankful n’ Thoughtful”
Don’t Know Why There’s No Sun Up In the Sky…
Wowza! The southwest has been under the gun of the Pacific hurricanes! Two weeks ago, or was it three? We got pummeled here in Phoenix, receiving 5 inches of rain in our rain gauge. Now that being said, the rain was blowing horizontal, so there may have been much more than that. This week/weekend we've… Continue reading Don’t Know Why There’s No Sun Up In the Sky…
We Fall Down, We Get Up…
I'm going off course today. This isn't a travel blog, or a book blog. This blog is about us: TJ & me: I love football. This has only a little to do with my testimony, but this needs to be said. We are heading into football season. Go Cardinals! So... I love football. Although the… Continue reading We Fall Down, We Get Up…

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…
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!
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
Blue Skies Smiling at Me!
TJ and I do Trap, Neuter, and Release (TNR) on the feral cats in our neighborhood. I thought I'd mention this, because we end up on the release end of our ferals with about sixteen of them in our yard. We have this routine each day: wake up, feed animals, take the dogs for a… Continue reading Blue Skies Smiling at Me!
