It was a lovely Sunday afternoon. An afternoon that just begged for two people to take a much overdue ride. I must admit that I had always loved taking long rides in the country. Especially on a day when the sky was blue, and the grass that never really froze was still a somewhat shadeContinue reading “Ribbons In The Sky”

SALT OF THE EARTH
This is a story about an extraordinary woman who taught me about love and the true meaning of never giving up. Mary Rustine Transue was my grandmother.

MAGICAL MONDAY MEMORIES
Today was another beautiful day. Low humidity, a clear blue sky, and a sweet calmness meandered around me, filling my heart, to the brim with peace.

It is snowing, and I am feeling sentimental about a man who made a big difference in my life. A man who loved dogs, and living in the country. A man who believed in hard work and helping others.

On December 6th, I wrote a short story titled, Truthful Thankful Thursday. It was a story about my love of Christmas trees. Did you know that a Gremlin lives in my attic? Well, not really, but my husband kind of thinks the little guy exists. To him, it is the only explanation for a largeContinue reading “To a “T” Tree Thursday”
