The power of a hug. I came from a family of huggers and kissers for that matter. My mom was not huge on hugs but she was huge on them in public. You know, letting everyone think we were perfect. My Nana, who did not want affection from anyone, always wanted it from me. I … Continue reading The Power of A Hug

Thanksgiving memories 2021 I am 43 this Thanksgiving. It seems strange to write those words. I am not sure if this is a me thing but I remember my mom's 40th birthday and this is the age at which I picture her the most. So, me being 43 seemed unreal.

All About Mondays
Mondays… Why do we hate them so? I used to think of Sundays as the end of my week and Mondays as the beginning. If we look at the week from a traditional point of view, Sunday was always considered the start of the week and Saturday was the end. I think religiously it was … Continue reading All About Mondays

Summer beginning marked by the day we remember those that lost all their summers. Seems strange. Nevertheless, I … Continue reading Diary 101:Memorial Day Weekend
Here we go!
Here I am starting something new. It feels like the word 'again' should be in there somewhere. Again, I’m trying something new. I'm a bit scared, quite like that saying, feeling like a 'fish out of water' type feeling, and I'm not sure what the future holds. Many humans go through phases. We have begin … Continue reading Here we go!
