What are you thankful for; family, friends, good health? Thanksgiving is a day to acknowledge those things we hold near and dear to us, but did you ever wonder if others are thankful having us in their lives? Are our family and friends giving thanks for knowing us and being part of their lives? Does…
Hope
Babies are God's way to let us know that no matter all the 'bad' stuff out there, life is good. My daughter gave birth last week and I became a first time grandmother. I am in love and this new chapter holds promise, joy and hope for us all. The promise of many tomorrows, the…
Happy Birthday Mom!
October 24th is my mother's birthday. She turned 85 years old today and my family is very blessed to still have her and my dad with us. My mother is suffering from issues and at her age she is not alone, but generally she is fine. How do you celebrate a birthday when you turn…
Help! The country has lost its way and who cares? We have a government that spends and spends with no regard to balancing the budget or lowering taxes. We now learn the IRS which is persecuting and singling out conservative groups is using taxpayer money for parties, conferences and 'swag bags'. If I ran my…
God Bless America!
I believe in God and I believe I have a right to say that. I am a citizen of the United States of America and I am proud to be an American. This country has been built on the diversity of its people and the hard work of generations. What distinguishes us from others is…
Tim Tebow and the Broncos….
Tim Tebow and the Broncos season ended last night in Foxboro with a decisive loss. Tom Brady and the Patriots were unstoppable and played flawlessly and with home field advantage they triumphed. Congratulations to them and to the eventual Superbowl winners. I am disappointed the Broncos didn't go all the way, but so is every other fan whose team…
Thank you Tim Tebow
I love Tim Tebow. From when he was a Gator and my daughter Lauren was a Gator too, Tim Tebow stands for so much that is good and is my definition of a hero. I find it interesting however, how the media and most people bad mouth him. John Elway had his own reservations about who Tim Tebow…
Birthdays!
Birthdays are those special days of the year when young people like to celebrate and older folks care to forget. The passing of another year, more experience and hopefully a fresh start for the future. Birthdays are special and the tradition of birthday cards, presents and cake are meant to make this day stand out…
Yin and yang
Life is like a roller coaster. The unpredictability of it is what makes it so interesting and just like when the roller coaster goes into the tunnel and makes a quick, sharp turn so it is in life. We like to imagine what our future will be like. We plan and try to control our destiny,…
I am who I am……
I am a mother, a friend, a daughter, a neighbor, an advocate, an author. I am a teacher, a cook, a housekeeper, a gardener, a Catholic and an American. I laugh, I cry and I do the best I can do each and everyday. I am far from perfect, but I strive everyday to do something…
