    If someone said that to me, I would respond “Why, what’s going on?” I said this to P as we were leaving Short Pump Town Center. We had gone there to do some Christmas shopping. specifically for his family. As usual, it was a horrible trip. To me it should have been fun, taking our…

  • Nature’s Healing

    Lately I’ve been taking the back roads driving home from the garden. I see that Virginia is in its prime for fall foliage. No matter how low or overwhelmed I get with thoughts and problems, I cannot express the feeling I get seeing the beautiful colors of autumn. The golds, reds, browns are stunning. With…

  • Mixed Up, Jumbled Up, Lonely, Crazy Mind

    So much is going on in this brain. Right now: Son and girlfriend broke up – This has been keeping me awake at night. My little granddaughter, not even 1 1/2. She moved out and my son is beside himself. The main reason being that his home is only a one bedroom home. She has…

  • N. Carolina Trip – #3 Bluff Communities

    Today we were out early meeting our realtor to visit two more communities. River Bluffs and The Bluffs. They are closer to downtown Wilmington and both were fairly new.

  • N. Carolina Trip, #2 – New Communities

    Our first day there we had an appointment with a realtor from Carolina Plantations. He was taking us to two new communities further north than we had been looking.

  • N. Carolina Trip #1 – My Memories are All I Have

    Leaving to drive down to NC to look at more communities and houses for sale, again. Early in the drive I got in an argument with P, (husband). First let me say that I’m a pain in the ass to drive with. I get startled easy, I don’t like tailgating, I curse ALOT at other…

  • Diet and a New Supplement

    Diet. what diet? I’m still not on track. Today was my monthly weigh in and I am 141.2, so I’m up 3 lbs. again. It’s to be expected. My husband keeps bringing home these delicious treats and I keep eating them. We also went for ice cream the other night and I had a waffle…
