Hasta la Vista, Bio!!
Regular readers know I’m not a big movie buff, can’t sit that long; I have a few all-time favorites, though not what you might expect. First is Gone With the Wind, followed by the original Terminator and Terminator 2: Judgment Day. It’s from T2 that today’s title is taken – that classic movie moment…

Another TA DA!!
Readers know I’m a fan of TA DA moments, have written about them here before, but just what does it mean? I think it’s something I picked up from a nephew, Colby, years ago. When Col was young, he was fascinated by magic and eager to show anyone and everyone his latest trick. He had…

TWO DAYS!!
I’ve posted countdowns over the years, usually counting the days till I’m spending time with one of my daughters; that is the case today. In approximately two days and and three hours, I will be hugging my Meghan. She’s bringing her boyfriend for his first visit to WI. Yep, meet the grandparents, my favorite Auntie…

Power Outage!
Early morning storms and those who know me know that I love BIG weather; that’s what began just before dawn. My dogs, however, hate storms, in fact, Shadow actually moves a chair to get behind and under it, where he whines incessantly. Soleil, not the brightest dog on the planet, seems lately to take his…

A Special Woman Update 2012
This post is an update of the birthday post published last year in honor of my favorite Auntie Arlene, whose birthday is today. Much of the post is not new, just made current. I spoke with her an hour ago, wished her well, told her I loved her and we’ll get together in the next…

CARRY THE NEWS!
Readers know that I came of age in the late ’60s and early ’70s and that while my beliefs have matured, I still love rock’n’roll, now in the “oldies” category. One song written by Bowie and released by Mott the Hoople in ’72 called for All the Young Dudes to Carry the News. I didn’t…

How Long O Lord?
Say it with the prophet Habakkuk! Believing as I do that our Lord has a sense of humor among His many attributes, I believe He’ll get my use of the title phrase. Sitting here home-bound by 18.9 inches of snow on March 23rd, I think it’s a fair question, don’t you? Not to mention that…

WHERE’VE YOU BEEN?
I certainly have heard that question lately and I will admit to being MIA these last eight weeks, more specifically the last three weeks. Where have I been? Finishing the first eight weeks of the sixteen-week spring semester, then last week a break before beginning the final eight weeks of this semester today. Between working…

It’s All Relative!
I cannot tell you how many times I’ve said those words since returning from my Christmas trip to ErinLee’s. In fact, I used the phrase fairly often out there, too! When we were all bundled up to take the ferry across Puget Sound or wrapped in hats, scarves and gloves to walk into the city,…

To Everything There Is a Season…
I’ve written about seasons before , how there are many seasons through which we pass on this journey known as life. My trip to Seattle, just ended, was a wonderful season filled with new memories made and great insight into my ErinLee’s day-to-day life, some things I’ve not seen before. I returned to a new…
