First Sunrise

I hadn’t been to bed yet and at a certain point it seemed silly not to stay up for my first sunrise since returning to the lake. I do live at Sunrise Beach - I think it is called that because that is what the public boat ramp and swimming area down the way is called. Anyway, I made a cup of Aveda... Sign in to see full entry.

The World in Your Lap

When I walk by your chair, grab my hand Pull me down in your lap and hold me there Just hold me, nothing more, just that simple Let’s just be together, breathe in and out Let my head rest in against your shoulder Snuggle a little in under your neck to relax Support my back with your strong body You...

Early Morning Reverie

It's still so early; no sunrise even a hint yet. The scene out the window is inviting - dark, quiet and peaceful. No early morning joggers throwing their obnoxious energy around, no intense commuters pulling out of their warm garages to go live their other lives, away from the ones we see in the...

What Do You Think Is Cool?

I am convinced that within every woman there is a latent exotic dancer, just waitin’ to get out, if she will but let her. I just proved it about myself, once again; and nearly gave my husband a heart attack - somethin’ I do occasionally. Buddy Guy, the great blues guitarist, came onstage to jam with...

Angus Used Moonlight to Steal My Heart

I felt like I was inebriated. It was really awful....I was reeling....weak in the knees....felt as though I had been to an alternate universe. I had been doing without for so long that to suddenly have overdosed like I did...and then to have found a new one...it was just almost more than I could... Sign in to see full entry.

Finding My Way Back to Myself

There is nothing like listening to music from a certain time in my life to help take me back there and get in touch with the me of then...I’ve been doing a lot of that lately. In discovering writing the last couple of months, all of these stories from the past have come bubbling up like a... Sign in to see full entry.

The Call of the Night

I can't sleep, I've tried for almost two hours; my eyes burn, I yawn for air. I must need moonlight, I must need to soak up some night. I must have had too much daylight today...too much computer screen. I must have read too many words, heard too much noise. The cats are in the window looking out... Sign in to see full entry.

I Name Those Tunes

I just got through listening to some old music...some really old music. I am convinced that the music I listened to throughout my life was the best music ever created....of course, everyone feels that way! I have to say, however, that my music has been reworked more than any music I know of. I am... Sign in to see full entry.

Why I Dance

When I was a little girl and had my tonsils removed, Mama took me to the drugstore and let me pick out any coloring book I wanted as a treat while I recovered. I picked out one that had Debbie Reynolds in all these ballerina costumes. I wanted to be a dancer from the gitgo and I took lessons for... Sign in to see full entry.

Mama Ties Livy's Shoelaces

I just got off the phone with Mama and I have to write this before I forget any of it. I’ve mentioned my dad quite a bit in my postings, but not my mom....yet. That’s probably because it’s hard to know where to start with her. First of all, let me set the stage with the fact that she is a tested... Sign in to see full entry.

About this Blog

Just stuff I want to write. I know I enjoy getting to know my ancestors through reading their journals and like the idea of leaving a flavor of the me that wasn't just what was left in photos and records; there was a life lived and this was some of it.................All postings 2005-2015 Copyrighted © DCJames
