What Do You Like to Pay?

If you follow me on social media, you know last week was a very strange one for me. I spent a day getting my manuscript ready for uploading to Kindle. The cover always gives me fits, but I finally got it in there. It’s on their website is “preorder” status. That means you can buy […]

My Favorite Food

Pizza is the perfect food for me. It has vegetables, meat (optional), dairy, and carbs. A well-balanced meal which is what my doctor told me to eat. I like pizza that has lots of red sauce and cheese with a thin crispy crust topped with veggies and maybe a little meat. I’ve eaten a lot […]

My Old Friends

Old friends are some of my greatest blessings. When I refer to “old friends,” I’m not talking about their ages. I’m talking about how long we’ve known each other, like since childhood.

Welcome 2026!

The years truly pass faster the older you get. Seems like 2025 went by in a flash and here we are at the threshold of the new year. It’s time to reflect back on what we each accomplished during the past year. I’ve read more books this year which has been fun. Part of it […]

Heading South

Hubby and I are late getting here, but we finally made the journey to the warm southern climes. We got out of South Dakota right before the snow and single digit temps hit. It was in the mid-60s when we got to our winter home. That’s the reason we do it. I have my ultra […]
