Looks can be deceiving
It was the last leg of my journey, Houston to Atlanta, and I was exhausted. After a five-day business trip spent mostly with people I’d never met before, my introversion was wearing thin. I wanted to get on the plane and just melt in to my seat. I walked down the very roomy aisle. Only two seats on each side. Nice, I thought. There was … Continue reading Looks can be deceiving

Every Single Girl
The title is “36 Things Every Single Girl Must Do Before She Settles Down.” I was single for way longer than I’ve been married so these types of articles often catch my eye. I thought, “Hmmm. I wonder how many of the 36 I actually did before settling down?” Well, I found out that some of things don’t sound that appealing and wouldn’t have been … Continue reading Every Single Girl
Cross-Fit Nit-Wit
About a year ago my back started hurting. “No pain, no gain,” right? So I pushed through it. I’m a 57-year-old trying to be a 37-year-old so I was doing cross-fit taught to me by my 30-year-old trainer. By October when I stood up from my very expensive all-leather ergonomically-designed desk chair at work, my back would cramp up and send me toward the roof … Continue reading Cross-Fit Nit-Wit

You may have mistakenly thought it was owned by Ted Turner, Arthur Blank & Bernie Marcus, or some silent stakeholders of Coca Cola stock. No. The Cathy family. As such, there is a Cathy family restaurant on every corner. There is Chick-fil-A (about a … Continue reading Eat mor chikin
My Tiniest Friend
The most beautiful thing about friendship is the ability to communicate with one another….. really communicate. Communication to me means being able to express yourself openly and to have someone understand. Breezy, my just-turned-five-year-old granddaughter, is one of my closest and tiniest friends. She is humorous and entertaining. She is a great listener too. I simply love conversing with her. I’d rather talk with her than just about … Continue reading My Tiniest Friend
The Spark Package
We all arrived at the W in Buckhead about the same time. After we got checked in we changed clothes and went to the pool. The W has a great rooftop infinity pool. We were enjoying just chilling on a Friday afternoon. Em, Lynn and I became acquainted with two sisters at the pool. We were enjoying chatting up with them. They were loud and … Continue reading The Spark Package
Disastrous Date
I wish I had a picture of him. I had one once, but I’m not sure what happened to it. He was new at our church. He came out the front door and introduced himself to me on the sidewalk. The preacher had recommended me to him. Seriously! He was a new divorcee in our congregation and the preacher had recommended that he meet me, one of … Continue reading Disastrous Date
Texas 20
A friend from high school had it posted on her Facebook page. 20 things all Texans have done at least once. And, by and large, it rings true for me. I’m not going to run through all 20; you can read it for yourself. But some of them are worth a comment or two. Number one is “you’ve taken a road trip to South Padre.” Check. … Continue reading Texas 20
