  • Spark Your Heart

    Spark Your Heart

    I’ve taken time this week to pay attention to what sparks my heart. I went into town for a haircut and walking back to my truck I pondered, “What would water your heart on the way home?” I drove straight to my happy place, Hill Country Water Gardens. Walking through this time of year is…

    I’m clearing out the draft folder as a part of my Sacred Bow for this year. I wrote about Sacred Bow in 2020 on another blogsite, but it’s so much more than one post. For me it’s a practice that starts the first of November and runs through the end of the year. I’ll be…

    The Right Way

    In a world of automation, I love making the Golden Cup and am so pleased that I bought a coffee maker to enjoy during these cooler months. This morning it’s 47°F here in Texas, (WooHoo!), and here’s a few things I’ve noticed that it doesn’t do, compared to regular coffee makers. It Doesn’t Have a…

  • Different in Me

    Different in Me

    My birthday was Saturday, the same day as the solar eclipse. I drove to one of my favorite coffee shops/bakery and ordered a Dirty Horchata to drink and of course, CAKE! Then, I walked next door to one of my favorite shops and fell in love with a candle to bring home. My truck was…

  • A Good Gasp

    A Good Gasp

    I have three pairs of sneakers used during the day and spend a lot of my morning looking for the right pair for what I wish to do. The yard shoes are strictly for working in the yard and filthy, so there’s no telling where I stepped out of them last. The indoor sneaker suits…

    Better Done Than Perfect

    I thought about turning it off before slipping into bed, but left it on. The ceiling fan above the bed is still set for summer cooling, but I’m not sure summer is still here. This morning when my feet touched the floor, it felt cool and so did the temperature of the bedroom. The fan…

  • Do It Afraid

    Do It Afraid

    One of the best definitions for courage I’ve heard is: “Courage-Going forward in the face of fear.” To be fearless doesn’t mean the absence of fear, but breaking the word in half reveals it’s true meaning: “Fear Less.” Does the life you’re living give you chills? It should. Next Saturday I’ll be 59 years old…

  • No What If’s

    No What If’s

    There’s a small, wooden sign hanging above my typewriter. As I type out those early morning thoughts by the light of a new day it serves as a reminder with the words, “Live a Good Story.” I’ve tried my best to live a life of no regrets. It hasn’t been perfect, but instead of regretting…

  • Farewell Keith McGraw

    Farewell Keith McGraw

    Who we have in mind as a life partner is probably the opposite of who God has planned for us. That’s always the trend as the words, “My thoughts are not your thoughts”, flitter across the page. After my divorce I used to joke with my daughter by saying, “I hope my person is a…

    I bought a pair of pants off Poshmark to replace my semi-existing yard pants. I didn’t realize until recently how paper thin mine had become with rips and tears at the seams. I probably need to pay better attention to what I’m wearing, but they’ve been perfect for working in the yard, so I purchased…
