I am the type of shopper that doesn’t usually buy things the first time I see them, especially if they are on the expensive side or not on sale. I like to think about it for a while.
Things that go Beep in the Night
Last night I was watching a re-run of a Friends episode. During the episode the battery in Phoebe’s smoke detector died in the middle of the night. Well, my life went on to imitate art last night. Yes, believe it or not, I was soundly sleeping at 3:30 am this morning and then…Beep. Beep. Beep.
While I was Planning our Vacation
I’m planning our vacation for 2019. This involves a lot of researching and reading for me. This got me thinking as I’m doing all of this work and planning a vacation to places I went to as a kid, but am now going to as an adult.

Experiencing Everyday Change
Lately we’ve gone through some personal changes. Some are routine, and others that we are experiencing are not so routine. That got me thinking, there just might be a blog post in this change!
Two Floral Visits to EPCOT and a Day in the Magic Kingdom
Ten years ago Jeff and I “discovered” the beautiful EPCOT Flower and Garden Festival. This year the Festival is celebrating its 25th anniversary and we have already been there twice, with at least one more trip planned.
Milestones worth Celebrating
As a family we have been, are, and will be celebrating many milestone birthdays and events. We have celebrated 25th, 30th, 40th, 70th and 80th birthdays. Tomorrow is another 40th in the family, with another 40th and a 70th in July. Next year we have a 30th and 60th birthday as well as a 20th anniversary.
Life isn’t Perfect, but Life is Good
I recently ordered some shirts from Life is Good for myself and my husband. The saying on the shirt is: Life isn’t Easy Life isn’t Perfect Life is Good This saying is accompanied by an image of a boat on rocky waters.
