Girls Just Wanna Have Fun
The television was blaring and the dog was beside me bed, whimpering and wiggling. I had been sleeping soundly until that moment. My husband, too, was sleeping. But the commotion of the dog and the movie noise coming into our room from the television in the living room, at the opposite end of the house, was bringing him around, too. I asked him if he’d let the dog out before coming to bed. It’s a necessity unless you want to be up in the middle of the night when the poor pooch just can’t wait...

Never Ask Your Man To Be Richard Gere
I “fell” in love with two Mikes, one when I was 18 and the other one when I was 52. They were both romantics and knew just what to say to me; all the things I wanted to hear. I will never know if either relationship had a chance of surviving because one was too early and the other too late. I didn’t have to ask them to be romantic like the actor, Richard Gere. They didn’t have his rakish good looks, but they could have written the scripts for many of his movies. It had been a rocky Valentine’s...

Surviving the Broken Heart
"Believe ME, when romantic relationships do not work, it hurts! Learn from these negative experiences to understand more about yourself and others. Develop a realization of what is meaningful and important." The truth beneath the words.

Caged Bird
Alison Kraus, her dulcet toned voice flipping from a gentle blue-grass version of "Down By The River To Pray" to her powerful vocal backup of legendary Robert Plant, who earlier in the evening said the combination of about eight different genres of music came together and so far had escaped being labeled so far. He just called it "Smokin". Indeed, it was that, indeed it was. Surreal, actually watching these two legends together on one stage, after listening to their voices coming from my...

Dinner Out
"> As my bride of many years greeted me one evening, her voice blasted through the door, "Guess what?!" I always take a deep breath on that very leading question. "What?" I asked. "I just won a sales contest at work and the prize is dinner for two at the new fancy restaurant down by the riverfront!" Her excitement was contagious. We knew the restaurant was posh, because we could only understand parts of the menu. "See? I told you there would be a place for me to wear my new spring outfit," she...

The Dress
You may have read this story before but I think it bears repeating. Jennifer's wedding day was fast approaching. Nothing could dampen her excitement -- not even her parents' nasty divorce. Her mother had found the PERFECT dress to wear and would be the best dressed mother-of-the-bride ever! A week later, Jennifer was horrified to learn that her father's new young wife had bought the exact same dress! Jennifer asked her to exchange it, but she refused. 'Absolutely not. I look like a million bucks...

Top 10 Reasons Eve was Created
10. God worried that Adam would frequently become lost in the garden because he would not ask for directions. 9. God knew that Adam would one day require someone to locate and hand him the TV remote. 8. God knew that Adam would never go out and get himself a new fig leaf when his seat wore out and would therefore need Eve get one for him. 7. God knew that Adam would never be able to make a doctor's, dentist or haircut appointment for himself. 6. God knew that Adam would never be able to remember...

LIfe's About to Change
After this Labor Day Weekend, we start a new chapter in our marriage and lives. Jay had to close his beautiful studio and he will be home, full time, with ME! It had been a bitch trying to pay our mortgage, our rent, our health insurance on today's economy as a sole proprietor business owner. We made a lot of money, but it didn't rest in our hand for very long. It just got passed on to our debtors. In fact, the last ten years have been a real struggle. We have lived month to month, just...
