Another short rain storm this morning, the 26th, and I needed an umbrella to walk Kaja. I simply can not believe that we can absorb so much rain and so much heat. We are going to vaporize in the sun or melt in the rain. It is just too much! I believe that we...

Musings for July
Musings for June 2010
This morning, the 22nd, has turned out to be an incredibly foggy morning. When I started out with Kaja, my dog, for our morning walk, I could barely see the church across the street. It was not difficult walking and being able to see, but I would not have wanted...

Musings for May 2010
Today, Saturday, April 24th, is a gorgeous, fresh day after the rain cleansed everything yesterday. It smelled better outside and it was a joy to breathe the air. I made sure Kaja did her business, and I picked it up, and then we walked down into the lower part of the cemetery. It is...

Musings for April
Today, Saturday, March 27, looks like another beautiful, sunny day. It’s amazing how a few sunny days can make us feel better, help us forget the long, snowy winter, and put a new perspective on our life. Anything seems possible in the sunshine, and it usually is, if we just get out and do...

Musings for March 2010
I missed another month’s column in February, because I was careless, forgetful and busy. I have definitely decided to pull back a little and schedule fewer hours outside my home. I love doing all that I do, but it is getting stressful to be out and about so much of the time that I...

Musings for a frigid January
It’s a bitter cold morning, and I just got back from walking Kaja. She never seems to mind the cold, but then she has a lot of fur. The only problem with that fur is that she loves to romp in the snow and walk in the snow, but when she does she gets...

Musings for November
I, like most everyone else, am waiting to get back in to the yard and finish picking up the leaves, but with the rain, it is either too wet, or I am working. Jason and I have started working two different days, but had to give up because of the rain. I am...

October Musings
I’m glad the month of September is about over. It is becoming easier to get through it, but I still am reminded by dates in September of the deaths of my two sons, and grandson and the birthday of my dear late husband Jack. I try to keep busy and let each day pass,...

Musings
It seems as though I’m starting all over again with Musings, because I missed the July issue and then there was no August issue, so it has been a long time since I sat down at the computer to write a column.
One of the best parts of this summer is that it...

Musings
Another spring is almost gone, and I haven’t finished up in my yard. On the other hand, I don’t think I’ll ever finish up because I am always changing plants and locations in my yard. I have done a little this weekend and last weekend, which was Memorial Day weekend,...
