Last night, I was not having a good night and, as a result, I had trouble going to sleep. And, I kept reading about events happening in Paris, London, Russia, Iran, Germany, China, and in the USA. until I managed to work up a high state of anxiety and despair. And, somehow, when I readContinue reading “Taking a Knee In Support”

“It’s going to be a bumpy [ride]!”
Yes, fasten your seatbelts. This morning is full of good news and HORRIBLE news. I feel good and horrible. Just when I think that things cannot get worse in the USA, things get worse. This is the quote that greeted me this morning: “The old world is dying, and the new world struggles to beContinue reading ““It’s going to be a bumpy [ride]!””
FIRST POST of – “A Moment in Time” (Hazel)
Welcome! This is my first attempt at “self-taping” a moment in time. She is a character, named “Hazel”. Be patient with me. I am getting this rusty machine up and running.

NOW! WHERE WAS I? IT WAS 1957…… AND, I WAS IN PARIS, FRANCE, AND I……
What I have on my mind today is NOT the news. I am so alarmed and depressed about the news that I need to help myself “get a grip”.

But, here itContinue reading “EXPERIMENTS IN CREATIVITY!”

MEET LILLIAN! – Revised!
MEET LILLIAN. Who? Why? Lillian is on my mind this week. She was my aunt. My mother’s sister. I wrote about her over last weekend, but that post was too long, and Lillian “got lost in the shuffle.” So, now, Lillian has a post of her own! She matters because she mattered. A woman beforeContinue reading “MEET LILLIAN! – Revised!”
THINK ABOUT IT!!! (Revised Edition)
I have revised this post because I want to flesh it out some more. As I said before, this week, I am beginning to think ahead, as I reflect. From where I am sitting, I have a lot of questions. This one may require another cup of coffee. Settle in. The lockdown is still outsideContinue reading “THINK ABOUT IT!!! (Revised Edition)”
THE NEW NORMAL
On my mind this Sunday morning, as I sit in my Studio in the heart of Paris, I am reflecting and rambling (and defrosting the refrigerator at the same time haha). Take a look at the photograph featured above. I have used my very favorite shot as the “featured image photograph”. What do you see? Continue reading “THE NEW NORMAL”
ON MY MIND THIS MORNING……
