What a lovely day it’s been. Last night we attended a birthday party for one of our musicians at Vintage 22 and didn’t get home until nearly 3 a.m. so today got off to a late start. I had to make a quick trip to the store for a few ingredients and then we had…
Happy Mother’s Day!
My kids obviously know about my passion for flowers. Lisa and Justin had the irises on the left sent to me Friday morning. Chris brought home the bouquet on the right after work that evening. Aren’t they pretty? My sweet husband bought this gorgeous journal, wrote a beautiful tribute on the first page then passed…
Weekend in the City
I just realized I haven’t posted anything since last Monday. I’ll bet you’re thinking that I’ve been so busy actually doing everything I wrote on my schedule that I didn’t have time to blog, right? Well, not exactly. I did quite well on Monday and Tuesday but then I started coming down with a cold. I had…
A Merry Little Christmas
I was determined to have a stress-free Christmas this year and I actually pulled it off! I lost about a month of prep time due to the asthma-attack-from-hell so I just scaled back my expectations. So what if the tree wasn’t decorated until two days before Christmas. It’s still beautiful: I didn’t put out every…
Happy Thanksgiving
It’s been a lovely Thanksgiving and now I’m sitting here feeling full, happy and sleepy. David made it home from his business trip, something which I had been worried about with all the bad weather and cancelled flights. I did wake up from our nap with a massive case of hives and swollen face/eyes/lips but…
Living in community
This morning we celebrated World Communion Sunday at church. The observation began back in 1933 in a Pittsburg Presbyterian church as a celebration of oneness. It was open to other denominations from the start, which is just one of the things I love about Presbyterians – the open, ecumenical practice of faith. It is now…
California Dreaming
We returned from our California trip around 2 a.m. this past Wednesday morning and I’m just about caught up. Oh, who am I kidding? There’s no such thing as “caught up” but I am unpacked. David, my mom and I flew out Thursday morning at a ridiculously early hour but at least that gave us…
What I’m Into (July 2013 Edition)
July has been a month of ups and downs, celebration and mourning, reconnecting and letting go. I am never in a hurry for summer to end but I must admit I am ready to bid July adieu. Celebrations July started out on a positive note with my sweet daughter’s birthday: Memory Lane Monday: Our Sunshine…
Memory Lane Monday ~ Uncle Ed
I had intended to share some special memories of my Uncle Ed in today’s post but this has been a really difficult day for me and I just can’t do it. Maybe one of these days but not just yet. Instead I’ll just share a few pictures. This was taken at the Dana Point harbor…
