Hello again everyone, I thought I'd share a Q&A I did recently about "Big Sky Country".  I hope you enjoy it!...

I'm off to the airport in a few hours, on my way to Southern California for the CREATE art retreat.  Wendy and Jeremy will be meeting me, and we're looking forward to a grand time. Heartfelt thanks for all your comments about yesterday's blog.  I agree--more flags,...

To: The Greatest Generation: World War ll veterans, our own soldiers and brave Allies, you quite literally saved the world.  You stood strong against tyranny and unspeakable evil, you suffered without complaint, for the sake of humanity and for America, our beloved...

I thought I'd share today's gratitude list, just for the fun of it.  🙂 1. I am grateful for the lovely sky-show this morning.  There was a hollow place in the clouds, fringed with light. 2. My niece Kelly spent the night here before heading home to the East.  Kelly...

I guess if you're not old enough to remember the vintage blues song the title of today's blog comes from, you'll either think I'm crazy, have very bad grammar, or both.  According to the little icon on the front of my iPhone, the sun will return on Friday.  I have...

It was great!  And today is my sister Sally's birthday.  Happy, happy, sweetheart.  I love you. My niece Kelly arrived on Friday night--she's going to special classes in pursuit of an advanced degree--and we had a lovely visit at my place.  Kelly is my brother's...

I've got to get somebody to show me how to access the whole of your comments since I haven't figured it out on my own and as of now I can only see the first line or so.  Just want you to know that I do read them and I do care what you say, though I can't always...

I'm revising Chapter 2 of the new book today, and drafting Chapter 3.  I'm amazed at how easy this process has become since I started treatment for ADD!  It's almost like that old fairy tale, where the shoemaker goes to bed and when he wakes up, the brownies have...

I've always been a goal-setter, a person who visualizes and affirms and all that other stuff.  For the most part, these methods have served me well--I am, after all, living the dream that little Northport girl believed in so fiercely.  On my next birthday, I will be a...

It was a lovely one.  Mom, brother Jerry, sister Pam and I all sat down together for a quiet lunch at this very kitchen table, with only one member missing--our sister, Sally.  We did a lot of laughing and catching up, and some remembering, too.  Hadn't seen Pam in a...

Where does the time go??? A week ago today, I was getting ready to fly to Oregon to visit my sister Sally and her wonderful family.  Suddenly, it was a whole week ago???  Hard to believe. I've started the new book, "Big Sky River", and while the first chapter always...

Thanks to my hair crew, I'm presentable again.  At least for a month or so.  🙂 The weather today is so glorious, it cheers a winter-weary heart.  I've spent much of my morning quiet time just admiring it, and also savoring my coffee in the pretty new cup I bought in...
