What happens now?
RENT A TEEN
A while ago, I realized it's time to de-handicap the bathroom. The VA, and you taxpayers, very kindly provided my Pat with the requiste rails, head and sinks necessary to live with ALS. When we started the project, I think we were both worried he wouldn't live to...
Too Darn Hot
Thanks to EVERYONE who came to the first Literary Event at our wonderful downtown Persnickety Books which happened to also be my first ever book signing. I don't know if I was "glowing" (southern ladies glow you know, never sweat) from nerves or heat, but either way...
FACEBOOK REVIEWS or They’re not ALL relations….
"A great story told in a style reminiscent of Jan Karon, Miss Read and Alexander McCall Smith. It boasts a wonderful cast of characters, each worthy of their own tale...do I see a series??? This is a not a children’s book. It deals with real life issues without shying...

One of the issues of being an older new singleton is getting out at night. Pat and I went everywhere all the time; even after he was on life support. We saw Book of Mormon one sleety February afternoon at DPAC and attended many concerts in Chapel Hill and Greensboro,...
Clean Floor=Fresh Start
Our church is nearing the end of our floor redo and I was instructed, by the senior warden, to go check out the beautiful rugs. Which I did. An empty church really brings home the phrase "sacred space" because without all the hoohah of the pews, paraments, Prayer...
We Are Who We Are
I wached the most interesting documentary on Netflix the other day. Twenty Feet From Stardom, https://twentyfeetfromstardom.com/, is about the backup singers who performed on all the classics that we boomers and our children sang along with on those long...
Memories of Dads past…or they’re never really gone
This pic was taken before Dad started taking us to NYC, where we attended big Broadway shows; Camelot and Hello Dolly as well as the 1964 Worlds Fair in Queens. Recently, I returned with our daughter Anna and her son, Harry. On our approach into LaGuardia, we flew...
