For today's photo, we go back about 27 years. I can still remember feeling humbled and honored when she asked me. My friend Margaret was expecting her first child. She asked me if I would be the baby's Godfather. This would have been right around the time I was dating my ex, not yet married. … Continue reading Friday Photo Flashback

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
This Sunday (6/9) will mark 36 years since I graduated from high school. Coincidentally, I graduated from college with my Associates Degree 25 years later (11 years ago). I mention this because there have been so many graduation posts on Facebook over the last week or two. Many of my friends have been celebrating the … Continue reading Friday Photo Flashback
A Beautiful Celebration
This weekend was just wonderful! My Goddaughter and her fiancé got married on Saturday. I was honored to be able to DJ the wedding for them. Before I tell you more, I want to give a little backstory. Just after we rang in the year 2020, and before Covid closed everything, I blogged about my … Continue reading A Beautiful Celebration
Friday Photo Flashback
It is time for another installment of my Friday Photo Flashback. This week - a picture I didn't even know I had. It certainly is not a great picture of me, but it does bring back memories. The background seems dark and things behind us are hard to make out, but the people in it … Continue reading Friday Photo Flashback
Cast the Movie of Your Life
The Word Press App on my phone will offer a daily writing prompt to bloggers. I subscribe to a few "prompt" emails and such, and they can certainly be thought starters. Today's prompt was one I had considered before and I may have even been asked a similar question by a Facebook friend. The prompt: … Continue reading Cast the Movie of Your Life
A Whole Lotta Happy
Some days I look at my blog notebook and wonder just what I will blog about. I have a few in my draft folder that are ready to be posted for some blog events that I am taking part in. Then I have a few that are bullet points and more like idea starters. Over … Continue reading A Whole Lotta Happy
2021 – What a Year!
At midnight tonight, we'll start a brand new year - 2022. Some have compared a new year to a book. The book with 365 blank pages - one for each day - and said that the book is ours to write. There is truth to that. As I looked back over my "book" entitled "2021," … Continue reading 2021 – What a Year!
Emotional Weekend Recap
It is taking all that is in me to write a blog today. I don't feel like writing. I'm numb today. All weekend long I struggled with whether or not to proceed with something. It is something that has weighed very heavy on my heart. It is something that comes with risks no matter what … Continue reading Emotional Weekend Recap
The Always Fully Stocked Pantry
My friend Margaret posted this picture on my Facebook page today saying that it "reminds me of visiting grandma's pantry!": I totally laughed out loud at this picture! The dude has a shopping cart!!! I can totally relate to this! My grandma's pantry was literally a grocery store! Perhaps this is because she lived through … Continue reading The Always Fully Stocked Pantry
