Monday Musings

It will be six months in another week since my lymphoma diagnosis and while my emotions and health have been all over the place, there have been moments of happy clarity. After being told one too many times that if I don’t do this or that I’ll die, I’ve discovered that I’m not one of…

Something That Makes Me Smile

I went shopping yesterday for hats after a few months off from shopping and while none of mine equal how cute the little duck’s hat is, it definitely was a successful shopping day. My little garden duck makes me smile so much that she’s staying indoors instead of out in a flower garden, which is…

Trivial Tuesday – Cover Songs

I was flipping between my two favorite Saturday morning college football programs and had to stop on one channel for a bit while a musician was singing “Take Me Home, Country Roads” for the West Virginia fans prior to their game against Penn State. I immediately thought how much I’ve always enjoyed the John Denver…

Thankful Thursday

Now here is an item I had no idea would show up on my simplistic gratitude journey, but I am very thankful for this collection of floral folding hand fans. By the end of summer, I am very tired of the sounds of fans and being hot and these are absolutely wonderful for when you…
