The Truth (Fragmented Fridays)
This week my travels through the internet have me pondering the truth. What is the truth? Can there be more than one truth? How often are we wrong about what we consider to be the truth? I’m not sure I know what “THE” truth is, but I do know this… What are your thoughts on […]
Photos by Children
I love looking at photos taken by children. Sometimes as adults we forget about a child’s unique perspective on the world. They are smaller than we are, they see things from a different vantage point, things that may no longer be of interest to us are still fascinating to them. My 3 year-old, Put Pie, […]
Feeling Blue
My friends, I’m feeling BLUE. Not light and airy like a clear blue sky, but heavy and dark. I’m not feeling this way for any particular reason, I’m just prone to the blues. I’ve been fighting the azures for a few days now and today they won. I find myself prone to tears, far too […]

The Glass is Half-Full #Positivismo
“The best laid plans of mice and men often go awry” and “Hombre propone, Dios Dispone” are both sayings that illustrate that no matter how much planning goes into something, things may not turn out as you expect. So what is a person supposed to do when things don’t go according to plan? Do you […]
A Mother Story
My mother keeps going in and out of retirement. Truly, I can’t keep up. She was a cosmetologist for decades and then her body just wouldn’t have it anymore, so she retired. But my mother is used to the hussle. She’s not the kind of woman to stay home and work on her projects. Oh […]
What to do with Chalkboard Paint…
Ever wondered what you could do with chalkboard paint, other than paint a chalkboard of course? I have. I’ve been wanting to have an excuse to use chalkboard paint for awhile and the opportunity finally arose. I was getting ready to throw a party and I thought it would be cute to decorate with glass […]
