I’ve seen several people doing these “What I’m Into” posts recently. I’ve really enjoyed reading them so I decided I’d do it, too. Here goes: Around My Home Early in June David rented three levels of scaffolding and replaced the siding on the peak on the front of our house. This is a project he’s…
Love and the City
I often wonder what I ever did to deserve the life I live. This weekend was simply wonderful in every way. David and I had planned to leave Friday morning around 10 but it was more like 11 before we actually got out of town. We spent the drive reminiscing about the early days of…
For myself alone…
I was pretty nervous about yesterday’s post. I really felt like I needed to write it but I wasn’t sure how it would be accepted. I needn’t have worried, though. The comments I received here, on Facebook and in person were all kind and understanding. I have some pretty amazing readers and I thank each…
A small-town Friday night
Too often I hear people complain about there being nothing to do in our little Oklahoma town. It’s true we don’t have all the big city amenities but if you cultivate friendships and seek out opportunities for fun you’ll find plenty to do. Last night we were invited to two parties. The first was a…
A Perfect Party
Yesterday was David’s birthday and we had such a fun party. A total of 22 of us gathered our chairs in a circle around the fire pit to tell stories, laugh and sing. A few of our favorite local musicians brought their instruments and serenaded us under a starry sky. Here is a picture of…

Today is David’s birthday and we’ve got a bunch of friends coming over in a little over an hour. We still have to eat dinner and I need to get the cherry pies in the oven (I’ve already got the pie crusts made). That means this is a good day to share this video I’ve…
Happyland Music Fest 2013
How do I begin to tell the story of the best party of the year? I’ve decided that Happyland Music Fest (HMF) just has to be experienced in order to understand it. But since that’s not possible for all my readers I’m going to try to at least share a taste of it. I think…
The Gifts of Friendship
Sometimes I get discouraged by the actions of certain folks but then I’m reminded of the many wonderful friends I have and how much they care about and appreciate me. I think the good Lord knew I needed a few of those reminders recently and I’ve been overwhelmed by the love and generosity of friends…
Pirates and Wenches
I’m still processing and recovering from our trip to New Orleans but I just had to share a few pirate pictures. I can honestly say these are some of the best people on the planet. Even if they are a bit crazy. Or maybe because of it. But truly, I cannot imagine a better group…
