August 29th, 2014 Today I sit on the marsh side. For such a long time I sat on the ocean side, but today strength and wisdom are coming from time on the marsh side.
During this pause I realize the ocean side dealt with all the turmoil of a tough time. Some days it crashed – angry . . . → Read More: The Marsh Side
August 22nd, 2014 Thank you Stephanie for nominating me in the “thank you” challenge that has been circulating Facebook. Like the bucket challenge, it raises awareness. It gives us a chance to pause our busy life and stop and appreciate the things that warm our heart or make us smile each day. Of course we all list our . . . → Read More: @Stephanie Guisti Miller

Birthdays, as birthdays go for most people, are not something we like to discuss unless you’re in grade school or about to be able to get a driver’s license or be allowed to drink legally. After that birthdays are not well-received. The first feared birthday is the 30th one. This one leaves childhood far behind . . . → Read More: A Bucket For My Birthday
July 12th, 2014 Thirty-nine years ago today my husband and I got married and honeymooned here on the cape. We always knew this magical place would someday be our home. Our dreams have come true and my prince really did give me that castle on a hill that our wedding song spoke about. We have had a wonderful . . . → Read More: 39
July 11th, 2014 Ok, yesterday I couldn’t find words to describe my daughter’s wedding. Now, two days later, I realized I walked around all night long saying it was magical. Magical is definitely the word.
The magic began when “All Of Me” began playing as I waited on my father’s arm to be walked down the aisle. I . . . → Read More: Magical
May 7th, 2014 I just read a blog post by Lisa Jakub entitled Mom, Mom’s Mom, Me Under One Roof. It was so well-written and spoke so close to my own truths, I just had to use it to celebrate Mother’s Day. I bring it to you today because I already celebrated Mother’s Day with my husband, my . . . → Read More: Happy Mother’s Day
March 25th, 2014 It was a Sunday afternoon in the depths of winter (which is still hanging around deep into March) and I had read about 100 pages of Through The Widow’s Window by my dear friend, Linda E. Williams and even though the Patriots were on, I couldn’t put it down. I was immersed in her cocoon . . . → Read More: Through The Widow’s Window – It’s Out!
March 3rd, 2014 I was embarking on a major closet clean out and restyling of my wardrobe. This is not easy for me. I don’t like to part with any of my clothes – because someday I just might need that piece – but the time has come. I need to be firm with myself. My closet and . . . → Read More: 1,2,3 or 4 – Which One Are You?
December 23rd, 2013 In a recent email a friend asked me if I still liked working after four months. Instead of just replying with a quick “Yes! I love it!” I decided to give the question more merit. I thought about it as I worked double shifts this week. A co- worker told me I could give her . . . → Read More: Yes! I Love It!
December 8th, 2013 I typed that title, then erased it and typed “All Parents Need To Hear This”, then I erased it again and typed the original. I did that because, although the message is for parents, it is something we could all use in dealing with loved ones. I used to think that not having my children . . . → Read More: We All Need To Hear This
