I Have a Dream

I Have a Dream 12/5/21 (Written the night my former husband died, with my profound thanks to Dr. Martin Luther King for his inspiration.)

Thanks, Pete

My two angels are together in heaven. I first met Pete on a blind date in 1967 and he was gorgeous, an All-American football player, funny, adorable. We were together from 1967 until we separated in 1989, with 22 loving years in between and two miraculous daughters that we waited a long time to have.… Continue reading Thanks, Pete

Even the ones that don’t feel like a blessing, because from gratitude, we move through our grief and make sense of what’s ever happening in our lives right now.  So go hug somebody, go call somebody, go send… Continue reading Giving Thanks

No More “Should’s”

When I think of the things I’ve GOT to do I feel depleted before I’m through I feel defeated with all “to do” And then I hurt instead. What I think of tasks I “SHOULD” complete I feel exhausted and not replete. I feel reluctant and get cold feet And then just stay in bed.… Continue reading No More “Should’s”
