Where Have You Been???

That's always the first question asked, at a gathering.  Puzzles are Great Partners Okay, so I know: when we’re writing for our blogs, we are often instructed to use unindented paragraphs. However, when I was taught to write papers, and yes, to type them, I was taught to always indent at least five spaces, so I do it. What do you do? As usual, time continues to...

Wow. Sometimes, enough is just enough.

This is the armband I  used while 'hospitalized'.  More Photos to come! If you have read my more recent posts, you know that I am officially in recovery. I am recovering from emergency surgery for a ruptured aneurysm, in April. After the better part of a month in the hospital, I am now released. I have a new life. That mean much more than approaching...

Hello, Everyone This is just a note, but… As you may recall, I haven’t posted here for quite a time. A time, indeed. I have been ill. Not so. I am in recovery. Correct. In April of this year [2016] I experienced emergency brain surgery. Three weeks were spent in the hospital [out of my mind]. I have since spent the last several months at my sister’s home, in recovery. The entire...

First Time in Many Weeks! How are You Doing Today!?

This is my first post in 11 weeks. Eleven weeks is a long time for me! My First Printed Book It has some errors but I am proud of it!  I have thought of all sorts of topics to write about. All topics in my head were somehow connected to our health. You see, being The Health Reverend, I have that obligation. At one point, I didn’t even feel like making Tea. As you...

However, on closer inspection, you will see a clear and definite connection. Read on. Confederate Memorial Day is the fourth Tuesday in April in various...

InternetTechnology - Something I Know and Love

The last two topics that I remember on this blog challenge were Write What You Know and Finishing Something. So I'm going to do these in that order. It is a bit of a historical presentation, which I would have done, but some time later. Thanks again to Jeff Goins for his nudge.  What I know and what I love and what really thrills my brain is internet...

Eulogy - Speaking Kindly of the Deceased

An Assignment - Not a Report of My Death! :) SandraTeresa Davenport was many things to many people. She was grandly Bohemian. She moved about the earth as she pleased. She dressed herself in an easy, colorful fashion, always with a collection of trinkets around her neck and wrists. Her uniform was long, flowing skirts, mostly black with overblouses, shawls and baggy...

Work -

For the record, I was never a good employee. There is somebody somewhere who will agree but today, I honestly do not care. Wearing a Name Tag. Wow. Work was always a thing that I had to do if I wanted to survive. I can honestly say that out of the numerous jobs that I've had, I have enjoyed maybe 3. I really enjoyed teaching third grade at a charter school and Phoenix...

Expectations. Influencers. Disappointment...Keep Moving!

I will begin by telling you a great way to avoid disappointment: Follow your own mind. Avoid influencers. Sometimes a person is so influenced by what someone else wants for them, they forget what they want for themselves. Influencers always have some ideas, input, direction, suggestions. Ignore them. Every time I entered into experiences that I wanted for myself,...
