This past Saturday, a miracle occurred. I am sure that is what it was – there was definitely the hand of the Divine involved. My daughter and son-in-law were traveling west on Highway 290 on their way from Houston to Austin. They were driving my 2004 Honda Civic coupe. It was raining and as they [...]

Posted in Friday Favorite, tagged world's softest sock on March 14, 2009 | 1 Comment »
These are the softest socks ever. I first discovered them in the Madison, WI airport and bought several as gifts. I love wearing them around the house. They are very cozy. They are called “Spa socks” but I have bought them for both men and women and both love wearing them at home with their [...]

Well, I have taken stock of my current situation and find myself in a surprising place. My house is completely cluttered. This resulted when I was spending most of my time in Minneapolis and my daughter, son-in-law and ex-stepson were all living in my house. I had to rearrange all my things to make room [...]

Ah, yes! Spring is in the air! My eyes and nose are in a perpetual state of runniness (is that a word?) along with periodic bouts of itchiness. It is so frustrating to be feeling the most miserable during the time of year when the weather is gorgeous and all I would like to do [...]

I have been away for a while because it has been really crazy. I realize I didn’t even do a Friday Favorite last week! I have been out of town for most of the past week. At the beginning of the week, I went to Seattle for my job. A team of us flew in [...]
