Booming Thunder

I was waken during the wee hours of the morning to the loud, vibrating boom of thunder. I thought a bomb had gone off or maybe even a meteor had even crashed near where I lived. The house shook. The doors and windows rattled. It caused our sensor light at the screened in porch to… Continue reading Booming Thunder

Sunday Sundaes

I spent most of the day with my mom. I hope that you did too. We went to church this morning and then had lunch. Watched a comedy on Turner Classic Movie channel. Thinking back on Mother's Day events as a child we would always wear a new rose bloom from our rose bush to… Continue reading Sunday Sundaes

Today I am going to the Memorial Service for an author who was a member of the Smoky Mountain Romance Writers when we first organized in 1997. Jane Bierce passed away at the end of April after an illness that she was unable to recover from. It is hard to believe that Jane is gone… Continue reading Play Date Saturdays

Random Thoughts Friday

I've been invited to participate in a Twitter party this evening. Never heard of one before, but I'm going to go to the url they sent to see what it is like. It will be interesting I'm sure.

Another Beautiful Day

Catch the heat and sun while you can this week, the forecasters are saying today will be our only one in the 80s this week. I've heard the rest should be in the 70s. Rain is possible so we could be moving into another little cold snap. I'm hoping not, I'd like to have a… Continue reading Another Beautiful Day

Sunday Sundaes

My friend Christy's grandmother crocheted her a cut little purse when we were probably in the 1st grade. It was white with pink edging and drawstring. But the trick was it wasn't just a purse. When  you opened it up, folded down the sides it made a baby bassinet. Inside was a pink little pouch… Continue reading Sunday Sundaes
