Out With The Old

…in with the new, as the old saying goes. Yesterday I took the tree and decorations down. Some will think, but what about the Twelve Days of Christmas leading up to the Feast of Epiphany? A twelve days of Christmas celebration never took place in

And here we are…can you believe it? It’s the finale of First Sentence Friday, and let me just say, this one’s a doozy! CHAPTER TWENTY EIGHT I bet a year seems like an awfully long time when you’re sitting in jail. We are now three

Finding Pennies

I made no move to mark or signal in any way my father’s one year anniversary of passing. About three days before the official day, Mom and I went out to the grave site and swapped out the Christmas flowers for a selection of silk

Welcome To A New Look!

I’ve been working behind the scenes to transition my blog to a new and improved “website.” Across the top you’ll see the new “menu” items (The Book, About, Contact, etc.), but I’ve also chosen a theme I hope will represent this new part of my
