HELLO AGAIN FROM MUSER

It's been a little over a year since I said goodbye which makes my Hello again all the more heartfelt. I came straight here without looking to see who is still around, and who has moved on.

THE TIME HAS COME TO SAY GOODBYE...

I don't care for saying good-bye, so I am going to leave you with a post I wrote a couple of years ago. My greatest wish is for all of you to write your best, continue to grow and learn, and to strive always to be your best self. Some of you here especially touched my heart...you know who you are....

I'M TAKIN' MY BALL, AND GOIN' TO PLAY AT JUSTI'S HOUSE! I CAN'T WAIT!

I have had it! I am tired of waiting on folks, contractors, electricians, etc. who have put my life on hold waiting for them. Well I'm tired of that. I thought we would have a new roof by now, but at this point, it might to wait until spring. The black snakes just lucked out, and will have the... Sign in to see full entry.

WHILE GOING THROUGH A BOX OF PAPERS THIS MORNING BEFORE DAYBREAK,

I found a piece of paper on which I had scribbled a poem by Lilian Moore, a wonderful author of delightful children's poetry. I like all of her poems, but this one about "Pigeons" has always been a favorite of mine. Now pinned to a bulletin board within view, it will serve as a daily reminder to me...

COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS, NAME THEM ONE BY ONE...

Count your blessings, name them one by one, Count your blessings, see what God hath done! Count your blessings, name them one by one, And it will surprise you what the Lord hath done.

I REWROTE MY "ABOUT ME" PAGE. DO YOU EVER READ OTHER BLOGGERS' " ABOUT ME "

PAGES? It's the first thing I read when I visit a writer's Blog. Our "About Me" page is our introduction to other Bloggers...our first, and some would say our only, chance to make a good impression. I am changing my "About Me" page because I've changed since I joined Blogit.com. I still have a good... Sign in to see full entry.

WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME YOU HEARD THE WIND ROARING AROUND THE EAVES OF YOUR

HOUSE? I'm getting used to the natural sounds of mountain living again...birdcalls, wind, rain, the rushing creek below the house...it's so good to be back in my little stone cottage in the woods. It's been very quiet here today except for the wind and rain. Max and I were on the porch getting in... Sign in to see full entry.

IT'S SO DIFFERENT NOW...

I can't even remember how many times I've picked up the phone to call Melanie...of course she's not here any longer. I regret not being home when she was so ill at the end.

Max and I voted yesterday...

We vote in the dining room of our community volunteer fire department. When we walked in yesterday, the aroma of something delicious simmering in a crockpot assailed our nostrils. Thank goodness we never have to wait in line to vote...well sometimes there might be three or four people waiting in... Sign in to see full entry.

LIFE FLOWS. IT IS MADE UP OF ONE CONTINUOUS UNINTERRUPTED STREAM OF

moments...one after another, after another, after another...until... Right now my cat, Bumpers, wants my attention. We have to take care of our morning ritual of my reaching down and rubbing her ears, and then giving her a few of her favorite treats which she immediately seems to vaccuum up with her...
