Happy St. Patrick’s Day! Whether you have Irish in your blood or not, it’s always fun to wear green on St. Paddy’s Day. Not that I think anybody should get pinched for not wearing green. I don’t think that was a thing when I was a kid, and not a thing I’d want anyway. We’ll just leave the pinching off …
On my last post I celebrated my daughter’s birthday. Tonight I’m celebrating Mom’s. Tomorrow, the 16th of March, is Mom’s birthday. This is the eighth time I’ve remembered her special day when I couldn’t celebrate in person with her. She passed on in July 2015 and I still miss her. But I think we always miss our moms. I know …
You people are great caption writers! Thanks so much for coming up with some good thoughts for Oscar. He agrees he might have said them all! But what do I think he might have said? I know. You didn’t ask, but it’s my fingers on the keyboard right now. 🙂 Actually, I was with many of you who thought of …

Today was my mother’s 91st birthday. She has a hard time believing it. Every time we tell her she’s 91, she gives us a look as if we must be crazy. Like there’s no way she could be 91. She’s even more surprised and amazed if we start telling her how old we – her daughters – are. I know …
Don’t you just love Sundays? There’s even something about the word that sounds good – Sunday. What did you do on Sundays when you were a kid? We visited with family most every Sunday. One Sunday my cousins and their parents would be at our house. The next Sunday we’d go to theirs. We had so much fun. Then when …
Today is my mother’s birthday. She is 88. She was the second of four sisters. No brothers. Her father was a blacksmith and her mother was a housewife when that word seemed to carry more honor. Now we’re homemakers or domestic engineers or a lot of us are wearing so many hats we don’t know what to call ourselves. Mom …
