Pill-Box Hat

It is the first day of October, still in the vibes of the last new moon, and I am mad inspired. I have done my Lumosity brain-training and my crossword puzzle for fifteen days in a row. My first Peloton ride of the new month done (Thank you, Alex). And… I might just finish my…

God-awful Dress

  It’s not God’s speed; it’s God speed or Godspeed depending on the dictionary. Several years ago I heard someone say what I thought was, “God’s speed” and even though I’m not religious, I do believe in something bigger than myself. I was drawn to the phrase and made it my own. I type it…

Gray

I could never be a preacher. When I was in school I lived for the essay question, or short answer, because I liked to ramble on and talk about things. I liked the discussion. Definitive anything still makes me uncomfortable. It’s not that I can’t make decisions. Sometimes there’s a white and a black shirt, if I can’t…

Remember Dana Carvey’s Church Lady?

Robes of Gold

It’s graduation week. Katlyn will graduate from high school on Saturday, but before the actual ceremony, we attended a Baccalaureate Mass last night. She goes to a Catholic High School. We’re not Catholic, so it makes for some interesting events and conversation. After I got past Michael commenting that the lead up to communion took…

Easter Boots

Today is Easter and we all went for a hike after breakfast. If you’re a Christian, you believe today is the day Jesus rose from the dead.  It is a time of renewal and celebration. If you’re not a Christian it is a beautiful Sunday in April that ushers in Spring.  It is a time…

Holy Sheets!

The washing machine is fixed. It occurred to me that I never let anyone know the washing machine is fixed. I am back in business! Why are people drawn to organized religion. I have never been an organized religion type of person. Whatever that means. The Church and the idea that someone else gets me…
