A Special Guy

God brings people into our lives for a reason. Over 35 years ago I was introduced to this guy at the company where I worked, he was the new accountant who’d been hired. He was nice, seemed to love to smile, dressed very professionally, (back in those days you actually dressed up for work, you…

A Special Lady

I can’t believe how fast time flies. I know there is a saying the older we get, the faster time passes, well now that I’m old, I get it 🙂 . It seems like yesterday when I saw you for the first time. You were incredibly perfect. I will never forget your first cry, your…

Remembering Our Vets

As you enjoy your morning coffee, please take a moment to remember our incredible Veterans. All gave some, and some gave all. The military has been a part of my life since I was born. I’m an Airforce kid, my dad served for 25 years after he became a citizen of this great nation. My…

Special Gifts

So, recently I shared the story about our family piano, and how it made its way from Illinois down here to Florida. It sits now in our family/living room, has been tuned, and I can’t wait to teach myself how to play, (maybe with the help of “learning how to play piano for dummies”). What…

A Day to Do

Yep, that’s today… having breakfast with a dear friend this morning to start the day, then I’m actually looking forward to getting some things done. My poor car needs a bath, (the dust from the clean-up work around the city covers everything these days), my lanai could use a good scrubbing, and I have some…

Johnny Cash

Little Notes

Before we moved to Florida full-time, hubs and I would vacation here every year. You see my dad lived in Florida for a very long time, he actually built a home on Marco very long ago, and that’s where my love for the Island started. So we would come here to visit and even after…

What’s for Dinner

Most days the question of what’s for dinner is answered before I’ve had my morning shower. There are times though when I have no clue. You’ve probably been there too, you wander to the pantry, look through the fridge, open the freezer, ugh, nothing makes you go, “oooohhh that sounds good”. Well, if you’ve been…

Sometimes it’s Just Thanks

Today’s little blog is pretty simple. As I thought about what to write I kept coming back to saying thank you. Thanks to all of you who read this little snippet each day, and more importantly thanks to Father for providing the words to make it happen. So as you start your Sunday, join me…

Canning

I’m headed out to spend the morning with some very talented ladies at our church. I’ve been working on the “gourmet canners” committee for the last few years, and this morning, it’s Red Pepper Jelly 🙂 . I’ve never made red pepper jelly, but I hear it’s really good and I’m anxious to know more…
