Fill ‘er up
“Many of us harbor hidden low self-esteem. We deem everything & everyone more important than ourselves and think that meeting their needs is more important than meeting our own. But if you run out of gas, remember that everyone riding with you will be left stranded by the side of the road, too.” – Bishop [...]
Brown paper packages tied up with string
Brown paper packages tied up with string ….these are a few of my favorite things… I rec’d these questions in an email and thought they would be fun to share here in the blogosphere. I’m posting the questions (and my answers) and hope you’ll consider “playing along.” Just for grins, I’ve answered in pictures because [...]
In the details
Yesterday the boys worked through the rain to line my flower beds with mulch. Pride puffed their chests when Dad said, “Now that’s a job well done.” The grands – oh they worked hard, too – building forts and cookies with Nana. We played, we laughed, we dined and we loved. Delighted giggles filled the [...]
Beauty tips
Smile often. Smile hard. I’m smiling because I love this song and I think I love the video just as much. I loved it so much I’ve added it to my MP3 player for the drive to work today. But first I am going to stop and vote, and if that’s not something to smile [...]

I’ve caught more tasks than I bargained for in team meetings and made it through to tell the tale. I’ve caught [...]
Elton, Redford & me
So there I was, working for local Houston radio station, KFMK, when I found myself signed up to staff our booth at an industry trade show. I was about 21 at the time and you could say I was a bit green to the ways of the world. Oh I thought I was all that [...]
Genuine Sunshine & Inspirational Hugs
Over the past little bit, Dianna at These Days of Mine has been very kind and very busy – she’s been busy sharing with me the following blogging awards: the Sunshine Award, The Genuine Blog Award, the HUG Award and, just this week, the Very Inspiring Blog Award. Wowza! I am happy to be [...]
Walking distance
I work near someone whose personality grates on my nerves. There’s no conflict; I make the effort to get along because that’s the right thing to do. Having said that, her voice is the last thing I want to hear on a busy day, a quiet day, an aggravating day or, for that matter, any [...]
