And I thank You, God for ….

Happy Thanksgiving to every one of my readers, to all the friends I have made in this marvelous virtual world. I began this blog December of 2012 and, impossibly, we are coming up on the second anniversary. At this moment, there are 530 followers who want to know when I have written something. I thank […]

TAPS ~ God Bless and Keep You, Fallen One

Throughout today, TAPS will play across cemeteries in honored memory of our fallen husbands, fathers, sons, daughters, mothers, aunts and uncles, grandfathers, great-grandfathers – calling back through time to the United States Civil War. It is played every night on United States military bases signaling end of day. I am incapable of sitting during the […]

Memorial Day: Memories and a heartfelt Thank You to all Servicemen and women

I will never forget the comment an Israeli made to me about our Memorial Day. “In Israel, on the day we honor our dead, at a certain time, everything and everyone comes to a stop. All traffic just stops and people bow their head in memory of their dead. Here you have three day sales.” […]

Sound the trumpets!

Rara Update: So, I had this vision, which was visualizing Rara receiving mail while awaiting her hearing on May 23. I’ve been advised not to send anything except a letter – handwritten, typed, colored with crayons, whatever, but no enclosures of anything except a letter.

Unexpected Gifts…

I picked up my mail today. There was a card from my friend, Maureen Bernardy. I am pretty sure she never meant for me to publish it, but she flooded my heart with joy. Here’s the card and what she wrote. … Okay, so I have tried to reproduce the card here with no success. […]

Winter Solstice Eve 2013

Yes, I am posting a lot today, but I could not let this day pass without acknowledgement of Winter Solstice Eve. I knew I’d written about it last year here, and read it again with some bemusement at the changes wrought since then. Tonight’s celebration almost got away from me. Whoa, Nellie! Slow down, HuntMode, […]

Sometimes you just have to go AWOL

Years ago, I was certified by the State Bar of California to be a Minimum Continuing Legal Education (MCLE) provider. I chose to provide a four hour course. One of the rules was anything over an hour had to have written material to accompany the course. Mind, no specific amount of written material was specified… […]

Fire in the Bones

I had the ultimate luxury today. I slept, near as I can tell, 12 solid hours or so. I got up with an immediate list of things to be done today. Most of the tasks had been on the list for a while. Okay, I received the Angel Card “Honesty” today, which is where the […]
