Derby Day

I’m pretty sure that I shared this last year on this fun day, but hey it’s ok to share it again I think. My mom loved to watch the Derby. I think she would have loved to attend it and she would have been beautiful in one of those elegant hats and spring dresses. Oh…

A Song Makes a Difference

Sometimes just stepping away from what you are doing and jumping into some music can change everything. Have you ever noticed that you can hear a song and your entire mood change? I mean that goes for making your mood better OR worse. Case in point, yesterday I was at the gym and the music…

Waitin’ for the Babies

It’s springtime and we all know what that means, there are baby animals everywhere. My husband and I have been shewing away a pair of doves from our front door area for the last few weeks. The female is trying to build a nest and has been very stubborn about it. They finally gave up…

They get together twice a year…

Yesterday morning I went to the gym as I usually do. It’s always fun trying to get a parking space as there is a class before mine. I had to park a little further away than usual, and I noticed that there was someone in the car across from me. I hopped out of the…

Golf Bags, Kids and Memories

Over the weekend my husband and I made a trip to our storage unit to pick up my golf clubs. Yes, they’ve been tucked away there since we moved down here full-time. Sad I know, but time has simply gotten away from me when it comes to playing golf. Well, that changes next week when…

The Gift in Front of You

You all know that there are times when I draw a blank on what to write in this little blog. I’ve shared before that many times, actually more than many times, I don’t have a clue what to write. What I realized this morning is that there are days when I try too hard. There…

Simple Beauty

One of the things you learn about when you move to Florida is the orchid plant. Not long after moving here a neighbor gave me one as a welcome gift. I had seen them up north of course but nothing like I see them here in the warm climate. I’m by no means a pro…
