Life is weird

no doubt about it

Passing

People from my past are dropping like flies...unfortunately they are the ones who will be missed///

Life unexpected

Peter's ex is in the hospital after suffering what appears to be a stroke. Healing thoughts...

Carpe Diem

"Seize the day, trusting as little as possible in the future", and the ode says that the future is unknowable, and that instead one should scale back one's hopes to a brief future, and drink one's wine.

2 out of 3  residents in this household are going to enjoy this beautiful day...

Good bye to some more loved ones

Sometimes a relative or acquaintance passes out of this life and you don't even know about it. It doesn't make them less important if you don't attend the service...once they entered your life or you theirs, they have affected your existence forever ...Bye Aunt Skip...I will always remember you as you were when I was part of your life...
Animals are different. They are our silent partners . when they leave, they leave an emptiness that needs to be filled by something else warm and fuzzy...You'll know when...
Bye Winnie.

Just some random thoughts

Parenting may be work, but it shouldn't be treated as a job...Children need love as well as discipline.

Politics and public office...

The media has stepped out of bounds...Reporters should leave bias to the public and report facts...guilt should be proven, not innocence 

If you don't believe things can change at a moments notice, check out the weather

Love is a wave

Beautiful day

It's a beautiful morning...great day for my barn sale

I need to grow up and smell the roses

There are some things in life that don't disappear with age. Strained relationships are easier to deal with when you are younger and busier. I'm finding I have less tolerance now, knowing that there is more time behind me than there is before me.  Sticks and stones sting more, hurt more, and nick away at joyful moments. I can not expect to change ignorance and paranoia...yet somehow I always do expect to...

Tomorrow is another day

rearranging the barn...and life

We have this beautiful old barn. It's bigger than most houses and it is full of stuff! Peter and I have been cleaning rearranging and shoveling C*ap all week and it's finally beginning to show promise...all the stuff is going to be beautified (well cleaned ) and parted with. I will have my summer studio and Peter will have a proper workshop where he can manuever things longer than 4'...AT LEAST THAT'S THE PLAN
