A Cautionary Foray
Today I had no trouble accessing OS. I'm not even sure why I tried, since so many times before it has led to frustration and ultimately loads of error notices.
Yet, here I am. Perhaps the world is ending afterall, I mean if I don't see this page load as a… Read full post »
A Peek at Handmade Houses
This past March the long awaited book (which included photos of my house) was published by Rizzoli International Press with author Richard Olsen. It turned out beautifully, and I have been given permission to share some of the photos with you.
The book is available on Amazon and ot… Read full post »
"Cant Get Used To Losing You".
I just read a blog saying goodbye to Andy Williams. ANDY WILLIAMS?? The first record I bought with my own money was Andy Williams, "Can't Get Used To Losing You".

A Path Unknown.
I am embarking on a new path this week. It is a scary one to be sure. I'm fortunate to have a partner in life who will provide the wind beneath my wings as I try to soar.
As I mentioned before, I have Rheumatoid Arthritis. Each day is filled with… Read full post »
A Year of Us.

Yesterday was our first anniversary. A year ago on an equally beautiful day you drove from Los Angeles and I from Ojai to meet in Ventura for a 4 p.m. appointment. Our wedding. I remember the day as if it were yesterday, and in the scheme of things… Read full post »
More than a Daydream
Me at age 7 in Athens,
Greece.
Being unemployed. These words resonate with me…not like they did when I was a young woman, when life lay before you and jobs were plentiful, especially when you had youth, beauty and common sense to count as skills. Ironically the… Read full post »

May the Bluebird of Happiness .....
Imagine....
What if we imagine our lives as one candle, lit only when we are born, then sheltered from the winds of life until one day the flame just goes out?
Trying to make sense of life and to not waste the one thing we do have, time, is a most difficult… Read full post »
A Vulture Is Always Lurking.

I was putting up some curtains when I happen to look out of the bay window.
Seeing a disturbance in my spa, I strained leaning closer to the window for a better look. Water was moving and yet the waterfall spilling over from the spa had stopped… Read full post »
When you have a vacancy...
Do you find throughout your life the emotional side often is left with a big "vacancy"? Are you sometimes feeling like a motel, renting out your heart and/or body to the person who seem to show up at your neediest and you are content to have the vacancy filled… Read full post »
After 710 Sunsets...
After all these sunsets I find:
1. Life does go on without you.
2. It's harder to care for yourself than someone else.
3. Your mother forgot what day it was.
4. It is possible to love and be loved.
5. Love means always saying you're sorry...and meaning… Read full post »

Many of you know the last dance I had on a ship turned out to be the last dance I ever had with my husband. He died some eight months later. I wrote about it here, Save the Last Dance. It/… Read full post »
I left last Wednesday to fly to Jackson Hole, WY. I was going to meet Paul and visit one of his sons and not-so-coincidentally meet the two year old grandson. All went really well, including the on again, off again snow. (Ok there was a bit of drama with
