Thanks for reading today’s entry in my blog. My goal here is to practice noticing. I try to write about small things and I try to keep it light. Sometimes I write about creativity or healing. And sometimes I write about my dogs or what I cooked for dinner. Writing daily here is a way … Continue reading Growth
You
I'm back into the doodling. It's always been something I fall back to when I'm trying to work things out and process. Whatever comes out is what I need to hear. Sharing feels a little weird but i'm just gonna go with it. Thanks for reading today’s entry in my blog. My goal here is … Continue reading You

Charlie and I went out to lunch. Around here we call it a Dairy Bar or a Drive in. You know, one of those places where you order at a window and they call your name when it's ready? Foot long hot dogs, fried seafood, ice cream, that type of thing. I'm on a search … Continue reading Sunny

I started walking every morning. I try to walk about four miles. Two miles out, turn around, and then two miles back. Sometimes I stroll and look all around.

I get caught up in my head and my to-do's and fall into Pam the figure-outer. When … Continue reading Reminders

I went out walking today. I was able to test out my new fanny pack. Well, I don't know if it's technically a fanny pack. It was listed as a "running belt." I just needed something to carry my phone if I'm listening to a book or podcast when I'm walking. It's just big enough … Continue reading Turtle
Puzzle Pieces
I've heard healing be compared to peeling back layers of an onion. I think that's true. There are so many dang layers. You learn something. And then you go along until you know it. You knew it before, but now you really know it. It's deep in your bones. You understand it so completely that … Continue reading Puzzle Pieces
Dad
Today I'm thinking about the people who lost their lives fighting for our country. And I'm thinking about my dad. My mom shared this photo of him at the wall of the Vietnam Veteran's Memorial. They had stopped in Washington DC to visit it some years ago. They found the names of a few people … Continue reading Dad
