The Music of My Life – 1983

Welcome back to The Music of My Life, where I feature ten songs from each year of my life. In most cases, the ten songs I choose will be ones I like personally (unless I explain otherwise). The songs will be selected from Billboard’s Year-end Hot 100 Chart, Acclaimed Music, and will all be released … Continue reading The Music of My Life – 1983 →

Bestie Birthday Wish

While she has been mentioned before in a few blogs, I have one friend who has never had one completely devoted to her. Today, on her birthday, I want to rectify that. As we get older, memories tend to fade. Details can get lost. We may remember things a bit differently than they actual happened. … Continue reading Bestie Birthday Wish →

Friday Photo Flashback

I take you back to September of 1999 today. Knowing what I know now, it can be hard to look back at this day. No one ever gets married thinking that it will end in divorce. Believe it or not, the divorce rate in America has been declining since the 1990's. They used to say … Continue reading Friday Photo Flashback →

A Blog I’ve Been Avoiding

After much thought, I have decided to sit and write about something that is really hurting me. I am writing this for the sole purpose of talking about it in hopes that it will calm my inner soul to "get it out." Please bear with me. Today is my second son's birthday. He is 15 … Continue reading A Blog I’ve Been Avoiding →

Sorting Out My G.E.R.D.

Throughout my life, I have seen therapists off and on for various reasons: my weight, depression, grief counseling, anger issues, my divorce, etc ... Years ago, I was told by someone close to me that I was not making any progress and I was wasting money and time with therapy, so I stopped going. This … Continue reading Sorting Out My G.E.R.D. →

Blog # 300!!

Another Milestone Well, here it is - my 300th blog post. To be completely honest, I have a few more than 300, but some were kept private. So this is my 300th "published" blog. Over the past few blogs, I knew this milestone blog was coming, and wondered just how a blogger celebrates this kind … Continue reading Blog # 300!! →

2 Years of Ramblings – A Reflection

Two Years Old Word Press informs me that this blog turned two years old yesterday! Two years and the blogging continues.... I wrote a blog reflecting on one year and some feelings remain the same.

The Big “D” (and I don’t mean Dallas)

I have been blogging here for almost 2 years. That, in itself is pretty unbelievable to me. In that time, I have blogged about a variety of topics. I have blogged about family, friends, music, and music. I have blogged about changes in my life, happiness, and things I have struggled with. Today, I am … Continue reading The Big “D” (and I don’t mean Dallas) →

Tune Tuesday – All I Want

I spent the majority of my radio career playing country music. I started with oldies, dabbled in classic rock, played adult contemporary songs, and even had a stint at an urban station. If I add up the years by genre, I have played more country music than anything. Today's country music, in my honest opinion, … Continue reading Tune Tuesday – All I Want →
