Happy Star Wars Day!
….May the Fourth be with you! Tomorrow my best friend and mentor, my life partner, JIM, will have been in his new home for eighteen months earth time. A thousand years is like a day to the Lord and so I would imaging it would be for Jim as well since he is experiencing eternity…
April 6th – Good Friday!
17 months ago Jim went to heaven, and I wish I could stop counting that anniversary, but it falls on other big days like this one. Good Friday. It is truly good because without it I have no hope for heaven. I am awed that God loved me so significantly. So completely. I am amazed…
April Fool’s Day
It is spring break in other parts of the country. It is interesting because it was never a big deal when I was growing up in southern California. But when I moved away I began to understand why! In a Word – WINTER! And that is not a season that is part of California! We…
Leap Day! An extra day to celebrate!
Today Disneyland is open for 24 hours. As much as I love the place I am not interested in those kinds of crowds! Instead I went with Clayton to the Fullerton High School soccer banquet. My boy lettered on the varsity soccer team! Woo Hoo! but even better, for the second year, he received the…
Happy New Year! 2012!
Today is traditionally the time for new beginnings, fresh starts and resolutions. Last night we spent with our friends the Terry’s and we celebrated the new year in England, Rio de Janiero, Buenos Aires, Barbados, and New York. Then Emily and I celebrated in Chicago and Scottsdale before I fell asleep! 🙂 Last night was…
Annual Update
Jim is the one who took care of the Christmas card and letter updates every year. So, now that I am in charge, you are lucky to get anything at all. Having said that, I do know that many of you have asked about how we are doing and wishing you had an update. So…
May it always be Christmas in your heart!
Merry Christmas 2011! We are trying to make new traditions, which time honored traditions to keep, and to enjoy our celebration without Jim. Last year was a blur since Jim had just left us for heaven and everything ached. This year we are still finding it is difficult since Jim left a huge hole in…

Happy Birthday to me! Happy New Year!
There is something about the fall that to me has always felt more like “New Year’s” than the first day of January. Simply put, every fall has marked new beginnings, fresh goals, new shoes and school supplies. My “internal calendar” has always found its rhythm with the school season. I am not sure but perhaps…
Floribama!
Most of you know I recently went to Florida and Alabama, while my kids were in Chicago, for a much needed visit with my relatives. It was fantabulous! Highlights include parasailing with my Aunt Crystal, a fresh shrimp boil, trying alligator (tastes like chicken), a free t-shirt (and food) from Milos, Tortugas pizza (best in…
