If you could live at any time in history, when would it be? There are two time periods I am interested in. First is the wild west. I’m thinking late 1800’s. I love the stage coaches, horses, steam trains, trail rides and cattle drives. I’ve had a love of western stories especially Louis L’Amour since earlyContinue reading “If you could live at any time in history, when would it be?”

Bill Engvall has made a very funny comedy show about handing out signs to stupid people. Essentially stating the obvious things they missed. You can look that up for yourself.  What I have in mind is a different. My daughter and son-in-law have some signs in their house. One of my favourite signs they haveContinue reading “Here’s Your Sign”

Hold a door, let someone go ahead in traffic, go into the proper lane when turning, don’t cut people off, say please and thank you and sorry. Say excuse when you have to walk in front of someone andContinue reading “It’s Okay to be Polite”

When our girls were young, they would treat us to dinner at Upendi, it was their very own made up restaurant. These were our dates when the girls were little. They took so much pride in making the time special for us. I wish I could remember whether the food was good or what weContinue reading “Upendi”

New Years resolutions?!?! Did you make some? WHY?? I stopped making new New Year’s resolutions years ago. Did I want to do better, be better, be happier? Of course.  This may be a better option that I borrowed this from my pastor. “Resolved, to be a better person on December 31, 2017 than I am today throughContinue reading “2016 Became 2017, Now What?”
