Happiness gently landed on my shoulders

  • I’ve spent the last 48+ hours ingesting everything negative and evil in the world.  I’ve become VENGEFUL.  I was hoping this morning that I would open up the IPAD and find that France had blown to smithereens more ISIS locations in northern Syria.  I was hoping that the French and Belgium police had taken out a… Read more

  • Sunday morning rant…

    First on my mind this morning, I’m totally undecided in the presidential race.  I used to pick who I thought would be best to lead the country….I would listen to other opinions….but more than likely, I would be secure in my choice.   I even used to roll my eyes as the day before Election… Read more

  • Absorbing the shocking truth

    Totally obsessed watching news channels because of the pain in Paris Feeling totally despondent over ISIS, Daish or whatever name we have given the evil Trying to remove the fear from my psyche.  It is a human emotion and giving into their evil intention Realizing we are all feeling the same hatred for the evil… Read more

  • Happy 99th birthday

    My dad was born 99 years ago today.  He was a simple man who loved his family above all else.  I love to hear my girls reminisce about Grandpa doing this and Grandpa doing that and I love him the most because he loved them the best.  I missed you during the World Series this… Read more

  • I knew when I woke up this morning that I needed to put these thoughts out there.  I know there are a lot of people…my age….younger….older….just trying to find themselves and the all encompassing “meaning of life”.  Many are led by a belief in God (or whatever their religion calls its higher power).  I’ve been… Read more

  • Craniosacral Therapy

    I had quite the day of pampering today.  Hair cut and color and solving world problems with my son-in-law.  A trip to Hobby Lobby to get supplies and my first craniosacral therapy massage…and then dinner prepared by my daughter. Jenny’s neighbor, Rachel, has been doing massage therapy for several years and has included craniosacral massage in… Read more

  • DIY Lotion Day

    I spent my day making lotion.  I got my recipes from Wellness mama. I thought lotion bars would be the most convenient….Wellness mama and all of her followers said they were wonderful because you can just rub them on and they leave a light coating.  Probably true but not very easy to “just rub them on”.  Not… Read more

  • Des Moines, Iowa

    I am always proud when I hear good rankings of Des Moines in Forbes Magazine, Huffington Post and other news sources I read about through Twitter or on the best news source *rolling eyes… Facebook. I was born in Des Moines and made my home in Iowa’s Capitol city until I was 23 when I moved… Read more

  • Who knew. We took to the streets of Kansas City today.  Actually the burbs.  I wanted to get some oils and butters to make some lotion to mix with essential oils.  Who knew that there is not a Whole Foods store on the Missouri side of the line.  I really prefer not to give my… Read more

  • My strong suit is not in making decisions.  Let me back up…30 years as a 911 dispatcher forced me to make split second 911 decisions…so it isn’t that.  I can make decisions on the spot with little forethought or available information…decisions that must be made NOW.  I, most generally, have no problem making buying decisions… Read more
