Monday Morning Musing
Before I left my daughter’s home in Missouri last week, she gave me a cutting from a plant in her yard. I don’t remember what the plant is called, but it loves sun and I put it in a place on my front porch that gets a lot of light. The smaller, darker green leaves […]
How I Spent My Vacation
Last Thursday, May 31, I left for a short trip to Missouri to see my oldest daughter Cindy and her family. I couldn’t post about the trip in advance as it was a surprise for her birthday weekend. I went to see her in “Steel Magnolias” at the historic Farris Theatre where her family has […]
Mid-Week Humor
This picture has nothing to do with the content of the blog today. I just thought it was so amusing to see Sammy in the shower yesterday. He appears to be asking if I’m coming in or not. 🙂 The cats are intrigued by this whole shower thing, sometimes actually coming in while the water […]
Great Summer Evenings
Before moving on to the guest post by Slim Randles I want to share something special from last Sunday. The Let’s Play Beginner Drama Camp at the Winnsboro Center for the Arts was dedicated to me, and I must say it was a great honor, as well as a huge surprise. I was the Theatre […]
Friday’s Odds and Ends
Before moving on to other items of interest, I thought I’d share a few funny memes that were shared by a friend. It might be a good way to launch the weekend. The first one is a little naughty, so be forewarned: Next I wanted to alert […]

Shift Happens
As someone who resists even rearranging the furniture in a room, imagine how hard it is for me to deal with a major change. I am also a person who puts down deep roots in a place, so it is hard for me to pull them up and go to another city or state. The heel […]
Monday Morning Musings
I’m back! Did you all play nicely while I was gone? The two-week drama camp was amazing, and the performances were outstanding. Here is a picture of just one of the scenes. The show title was “Mayhem on Market Street,” and the story involved thievery, mischief, and a search for a mcguffin. One of the parents […]
Monday Morning Musings
How was your weekend? Whatever you did, I hope it was fun and enriching. As usual, I had a busy two days. On Saturday there was an event at the GIlbreath Memorial Library here in my small town to once again celebrate the Official Winnsboro Historian, Bill Jones. We were both at the library to […]

On Art And Friendship
Last Friday I was at the Winnsboro Center for The Arts for a special production following the Maryann Miller Beginner Drama Camp. It was great fun to be there, and the kids did a wonderful job putting on a performance that was an adaptation of the book, The Great Kapok Tree; A Tale of the […]
