Many years ago I stopped allowing my kids to partake of “the lord’s supper” aka communion because they didn’t understand it. One of them got upset because her “snack” had been a teenie cup of juice and a piece of cracker. (yes, I laughed) But I made every effort to stop them from participating becauseContinue reading “wash, rinse, REPEAT”

WOW! An entire year has gone by! I don’t have any excuses…
WOW! An entire year has gone by! I don’t have any excuses. I suppose I forgot or maybe, Inwas just too upset to write anything and I do believe that it’s better to say nothing if I can’t say anything nice. Well, no more promises to write more. No more promises, about anything. It willContinue reading “WOW! An entire year has gone by! I don’t have any excuses…”

I want the Kansas City Chiefs to go to and win the Super Bowl! A three-peat! I do not like President Musk or his VP, Trump. I am sitting this one out. I won’t say what I normally say about posting more. See what I did? Wink wink I am focused on something though, andContinue reading “Sun, December 22,2024”
Tres Preguntas
1). What do I want next month to feel like. 2). How can I allow myself to be open to attaining that goal? 3). How can I make each day productive? I am always tempted to try the monetization of my posts and my stories on Wattpad. However, I am not brave enough to watch noContinue reading “Tres Preguntas”
Resolutions
Have I wished you a happy new year? Apologies if I haven’t. It’s been a long 15 days. Whew! That’s a statement, huh? I want to be able to comprehend it all in a way that doesn’t disturb me or my peace of mind. I must say that nothing out of the ordinary is wrong.Continue reading “Resolutions”
Cancelation of the Parenting Agreement
A running theme now a days is about protecting your own peace AT ANY COST. It demands that every one around you must respect your boundaries and your peace. I have noticed that this isn’t without casualties. I’ve spoken with all too many parents and grandparents who have been “blocked” from their children’s lives. IContinue reading “Cancelation of the Parenting Agreement”
Pause for a station break 🙂
I am now also on Wattpad , writing as Rupert Flagg. (“Josie’s Chronicles.”) My novel, Sitting on the Edge of a Dream” can be purchased wherever fine books are sold. (I enjoy saying that.) Check me out. Leave a comment or two.
Feliz Navidad and a couple of trumpy bears.
This year, we celebrated on Christmas eve. We had our family meal. It was a Spanish theme, tamales, arroz con pollo, menudo, roasted corn, (it was boiled, but I choose to remember it as roasted), tacos, etc, etcetera, et cetera. Now I’m chilling on the couch watching the kids graze. They eat, play and eatContinue reading “Feliz Navidad and a couple of trumpy bears.”
Ten things, er Five things no one tells you about parenting
There are times when I envy my childless acquaintances. They will never know the agony of it all. I’ve been praying. I’ve been pondering and I now understand why my mom wanted me to be a single, free, accomplished woman. I used to think that she was wrong in her disappointment of my choice toContinue reading “Ten things, er Five things no one tells you about parenting”
One ship left
I used to watch my kids play video games. Their games are far more complicated than any of the games I grew up playing, and they don’t have to leave home play. They experience the highs and lows of game play in the comfort of their own space. I suppose that that’s why the anxietyContinue reading “One ship left”
