Now here’s a holiday to celebrate! Today is National Scrabble Day and what better way to celebrate than to try to beat my husband in a game of Scrabble. I have shared before that I am an addict. Confessions of a Scrabble Addict! There are groups for those trying to overcome addiction to drugs or […]
Last year we moved to Michigan in October – just in time to enjoy the beautiful fall colors! The street we moved to had big trees up and down the block and every time we went somewhere I loved driving down our street. We were told about a place on the northern part of the […]
We Americans like to think how great and advanced our nation is – and we are. But during this cold snap I had a few scary thoughts on just how dependent we are on our great advanced technologies – and what would we do if something happened to them. The energy company that supplies our […]

I must confess that I am constantly looking for new words to use in a game. When I read a book I am on the outlook for new words. As I glance through a magazine, my eyes just seem to latch on to new words in the articles or the advertisements. During the commercials when […]
On our last road trip of 2019 we headed to the top of the lower peninsula of Michigan to see the beautiful fall trees.

Tomorrow my big sister will be 80 years old. Can’t believe that! To me she is still my role model. In her honor I am sharing this post again about sisters. If you read this Sis, Happy Birthday. (Hope you don’t mind I told everyone how old you are.) You are in spirit still a […]
I have always been interested in history – especially American and English history. My library contains biographies on almost every American president, most of our founding fathers, and other men or women who have played an important part in our country political system. Growing up I was told my grandmother was Irish. She had red […]
I like this view of worship in church – taken from one of my husband’s sermons.

My parents died in the same year – Mom in April and Dad in August. I remember my sisters and I looking at each other and saying “We are now the older generation.” Until that time we could think of ourselves as young – it was our parents’ and their siblings who were old. But […]
Many American children are looking forward to the arrival of Santa Claus on Christmas Eve, bearing presents for good little boys and girls. But most of those celebrating don’t know that there is a real man behind the story of Santa Claus, and that real man was a Christian persecuted because of his faith and […]
