Is it possible to be homesick for a place where you’ve never lived? I don’t believe in reincarnation but if I did I would swear I once lived in New Orleans. I was strangely captivated by the city on my very first visit and each time I return it feels like going home. And that…
My name is Deanna and I’m 45 years old
Whew! I wrote it and it didn’t kill me. I’m generally not all that freaked out by birthdays but they do tend to make me reflective, sort of like New Year’s Eve. I was awake rather early this morning, lying in bed trying to go back to sleep. That rarely works so I found myself…
Dinner in Dallas
David and I have been invited to a special dinner tomorrow night in Dallas. If I understand correctly, this is being hosted by the company that David buys their company fuel from. I think they are hoping that he will talk the rest of the company into using their services so I suppose you could…
Rock on!
Yesterday I drove through a local convenience store to get a vanilla Diet Coke. I had my iPod plugged into the car stereo and the song happened to be Black Sabbath’s “Paranoid”. The guy at the window was probably mid-20s and attractive in that *long hair/bad boy* sort of way. He asked for my order…
What’s in your refrigerator?
I just read an interesting thread on a forum I occasionally peruse. Everyone was sharing what is in their refrigerator and some even shared photos. I haven’t figured out the picture posting thing yet so I’ll have to settle for just describing the contents. I tend to keep most of the same things on hand…

I nearly always have more than one book going at a time. Here’s my current list: Bedside – “Le Mariage” by Diane Johnson Treadmill – “Bird by Bird” by Anne…
Thursday Three…
Three things I want/need to do in the next few days: Finish writing and editing an article I’m working on for a magazine. Bake bread. Work on flowerbeds. I know this isn’t much of a post and that I haven’t been doing a very good job blogging lately. However, I’m going no mail on my…
A New Look…
I was trying to figure out why at least two people were unable to leave comments on my blog (unsuccessfully, I might add) and decided to change my template. Like the new color? I really want a customized look but I’ll need to get my daughter over here to help me with that. I know,…

You’ve probably already seen this as it’s made its way around the Internet: The Good Wife’s Guide (from a 1950s-era home economics manual) Have dinner ready: Plan ahead, even the night before, to have a delicious meal ready for your husband. This is a way of letting him know that you have been thinking about…
