Some additional thoughts about downsizing. I have gotten some interesting comments about getting rid of things. But, moving will usually motivate people to get started. I just am a drastic case. I started with a lot, and I now have room physically for a little. Also, I don’t have anyone who wants my stuff butContinue reading “MEMORIES REMAIN IN THE HEART”

NEW LIFE
This is one of those days when I have so many ideas for posts in my head that I don’t know where to start. The downsizing is taking on a life of its own and really a lot of fun. At first, I was just throwing things in the trash. I did that until IContinue reading “NEW LIFE”
PARIS WEEK

DOWNSIZING -26 YEARS IN THE MAKING!
Since 1993 ((age 56), I have been continually downsizing. Lots of years spent accumulating. Now, it is the other way around. I have a lot of people ask me how I am doing it because they know the big houses I have had and lots of furniture and “stuff”. Plus, I saved everything “in caseContinue reading “DOWNSIZING -26 YEARS IN THE MAKING!”
RED LETTER DAYS
I keep taking a step at a time and scaring myself each time. Haha! This week has been a “doozy” (Family expression), saying to myself, “Well, when Isis attacks Paris after the Battle of Normandy, I hope I am not shopping at Chanel that day!” I keep thinking that cooler heads will prevail. NOT. A “friend”Continue reading “RED LETTER DAYS”

Plus, I “overdid” this week and have exhausted my poor body by walking 3.5 miles (not kilometers) on Thursday and 2.9 miles yesterday. I did it, but I am here to tell you that IContinue reading “SEPTEMBER SELECTIONS – 2019”
ENLARGE YOUR UNIVERSE – – – SAY “YES!
***Cliché’s have always been a part of my vocabulary. Why? Because Daddy was ALWAYS saying a cliché, or a catchy slogan, or a joke, or a byline, or a ….. You get the picture. One of his favorites was “The grass is not greener on the other side of the fence.” And “Go to it!”,Continue reading “ENLARGE YOUR UNIVERSE – – – SAY “YES!”

Last week, I took a break! There was a LOT going on in the world. Yes, I was despondent (sigh), but I am back with renewed vim and vitality!!! Sorta. So, on Friday, the 13th following 9/11, I decided to walk to the Sea whether I felt like it or not. And, I was NOTContinue reading “FRIDAY 13TH SEATREK, FINALLY!! aka “A Day in the Life”i”

I know. I know. I said I was not going to write anything today. And, here I am. But, I have some thoughts that I want to share. Plus, writing brings me comfort.
