  1. Thankful – Day 12 of 365

    Today I am thankful for the beauty of nature. Whenever I feel stressed, I just walk outside and put my toes in the grass. I take a deep breath of fresh air and listen to the birds chirping in the tree. Ahhhhh! Yesterday, my husband and I did some yardwork to prepare for the big party next weekend. We planted some colorful flowers in the flower boxes attached to our fence. We had planted flowers there earlier in the Spring, but with our extremely hot summer, they withered and died. Hoping that these will last longer, now that temperatures are going down. The tags said they love full sun, so that’s what they will get. Thank you, God, for the plants, trees and flowers that beautify our world, give us oxygen to breathe, and give us respite from the stress of life.

  5. 10 At The End – August 2026

    Gratitude, Happenings, Observations … 

    1. After a crazy June and busy July, August brought slower days and sweet joys, including celebrating my pregnant daughter at her baby shower.

    2. Sunsets on the water.

    3. A wonderful, relaxing getaway with my beloved friend. Spending time together was a treasure, especially since we now live in different states. I’m thankful for friendship.

    4. Pesticide-free, fresh cucumbers from my lovely neighbor’s garden.

    5. Desserts turned out adorable and delicious for my daughter’s baby shower.

    6. My 29-yr old daughter came into town to celebrate her sister. What fun to have both of my girls together for several days!

    7. August reads – stay tuned…more details on these later this week.

    8. A walk through Sarah P. Duke Gardens at Duke University – more photos on Wednesday.

    9. August heat in Texas is comparable to January cold in New York. I was mostly stuck indoors.

    10. But thankfully, there were pleasant beach walks in coastal Carolina during our quick girls-getaway…

    Tomorrow we welcome the start of the “ber” months. September, October, November and December are always special. Each brings at least one holiday and for much of America, a coziness that accompanies beautiful seasonal changes. I hope you enjoy each one of them🍂.

    Thank you for reading and have a blessed Monday!

  13. I don't think I've been grateful to reality before, but I am now.

    I'm not clear why, yet the feeling is embodied: I feel myself smiling on the inside just because I exist.

  18. When my employer told me they support Work Life Balance, I probably rolled my eyes. I forgot about a Dr visit on Monday, emailed the boss last Friday to inform that I would be unexpectedly out half a day Monday and all day Wednesday. He actually called me to see if everything was OK. I said, “all is well, I have a Dr appointment on Monday and Wednesday is supposed to be super nice and I want to enjoy it” he said “OK, cool, glad you’re OK. Enjoy” #thankful #work #life

  28. Small joys: playing shop. Mending stuff. Threading beads. Finding stuff we need. Snuzzing cats. A bit of welcome rain. Marinated smoked tofu. Being safe to try new things. Learning stuff. Making stuff. Reading aloud. Writing new songs. Playing fiddle.

    How's your day going?

    "I'm really #thankful for the #books, they remind me of the joys before #prison and yet also provide for a hopeful desire to read, watch and enjoy these amazing worlds after prison."

    I am blessed because my life is full of these. Many, that I have never ever met.
