EVERYTHING IS A MATCH

This morning our future daughter-in-law asked if they could have wedding gifts shipped to the farm (along with having the wedding here, cleaning out the barn for the reception, my cooking for 100 people, paying for the rehearsal dinner, helping to pay for the honeymoon and watching their baby while...

I HAD A LOVER ONCE . . .

I had a lover once... well the truth is that I've had many lovers but I had a lover once who died. Before we knew what was wrong with him, we would spend many nights awake as he tossed and turned in discomfort or arose from the bed to be sick. Later when we knew he had cancer, we would spend whole... Sign in to see full entry.

HUNKA, HUNKA, BURNING LOVE

Last night my husband and I decided to meet for dinner since I left the house before he even came home. He was to pick me up in the parking lot of the spa where I work. As I was sitting outside at the small wrought iron patio set, the sound of a Harley Davidson motorcycle met my ears. Nothing sounds... Sign in to see full entry.

ELVIS LIVES

Yesterday was our wedding anniversary. One year ago yesterday, we were in Las Vegas at the Graceland Chapel on Las Vegas Blvd. with an Elvis impersonator. It was the most fun we ever had at anyone's wedding. A limousine picked us up at our hotel and drove us to the chapel. A very tall, well built... Sign in to see full entry.

THE ENERGY IS SWIRLING

The energy is swirling all around us. Nothing is really happening to us unless you count my husband's chipped tooth. We are well, happy and whole. Our children's lives are in turmoil though and we're getting caught up in the suction of their tornado lives. Two are thinking of moving to San... Sign in to see full entry.

TRUDGING THROUGH THE CRAP AGAIN

Sorry, I'm writing crap again. It's been a hectic weekend. Getting out of town is the best way for us to rest and relax. John and I have been looking forward to going to Las Vegas for five days. The trip has been planned for months - flight reservations, hotel reservations, and tickets to a... Sign in to see full entry.

IF A PICTURE SAYS A THOUSAND WORDS - NOW YOU KNOW ME

This is where we live. Long before we met, each of us dreamed about living on a 'farm'. When my husband & I did meet, we dreamed the dream together. We looked and looked. We would find the land but the house would be wrong. We would find the house but the land would be wrong. Finally we decided to... Sign in to see full entry.

MANDALA IN THE GARDEN

Beside the entrance to our house is a huge flowerbed edged with flat stones. The first spring we were here, I waited anxiously to see what flowers would show their sunny heads. There were large orange poppies with black centers, small wild geranium, oat grass, daisies and blackeyed susans but most... Sign in to see full entry.

MANY LIVES, MANY MOTHERS

To all of those with mother issues and all of you who don't, I encourage you to take a moment today and reflect on all the women in your life who have been there to nurture you over your lifetime. We are always given what we need. My biological mother is unknown. My idea of her is that she was a... Sign in to see full entry.
