The Train

The newest phone scans your face to let you access it. An ai types your messages as you speak. With the touch of a button, you’ve ordered, paid, and had your dinner delivered to your front door. You don’t carry cash because with just a touch of your phone on the pad at the restaurant…

Where It Started

If you’ve been following this little blog for awhile you know that it was originally supposed to be a little book, not a little blog. Well, I have all of the chicken scratches, loose papers, post-it notes, etc. still in a binder in my office. This morning as I was struggling with what to say…

Dawn of a New Day

It is indeed the dawn of a new day. Yesterday was another day filled with emotion as we come together to help those in need in the states affected by Helene. What was so wonderful though, the connections that have been made to share with others. This person has that friend, who knows someone there,…

Do You Know Me?

We had dinner with some friends last night. We’ve known them for several years and we’ve shared about our lives before moving to Florida. We know what they do for a living, we know about their children, that kind of thing. Last night though, we had wonderful conversation, sharing even more about our backgrounds, growing…

The Change Of The Family

I’m guessing I’m like most people in that as I’ve grown older my relationship with my parents and my siblings has changed. My parents have been gone for more than 20 years, but even in those few years before they passed away my relationship with them changed. I confided in them more, grew closer to…

Take The Detour

I’m not a fan of the days getting shorter. The whole drive to work in the dark, drive home in the dark thing, nah, not a fan. However, I have to admit, the sun setting a little earlier allows my husband and me to stop on the way home from work and catch a sunset…

Be Prepared – Live Each Day

This morning, I was looking back on some of my previous little blogs. We’re coming up on the second anniversary of Hurricane Ian, and I read the post that I wrote just a few days before that historic storm. Two years later, some people are still rebuilding and not back in their original homes. I…
