Kala just finished her first sales call for her dad’s bread company today. She called before she went into her first restaurant. She was nervous and insecure about how she would do alone. This is so wonderful that Kala was willing to share her most intimate feelings about her first day alone on the job. It’s easy as we know to go along with the professionals and hear their pitch. It’s another thing to do the job alone.

I will never really know for sure, but I have a strong cense that the power of positive thinking and the powers that be saved my life a little over a month ago. I was on my way back from picking up a package at Ups that was not accepted at a previous office space earlier that day and could only be picked up between 7pm and 8pm. I made a quick stop at the bookstore to get the book “Eat Right for Your Blood Type”. I headed onto the …

What do you think is the most important part of your life? Is it material, or is it personal? What is the difference between material (home, car, money in bank) and personal (people you love, family, children) etc etc. My daughter got me thinking about this when she surprised me and said……I learned something about love mom and what I think it really means. Hmm I thought where is this going? If someone you know dies and you feel no personal reaction to their being gone….you couldn’t have loved them. …

It’s Sunday 6:19 and I’ve been up since 4 am reading blogs……back to my old tricks. Gaining my strength and feeling healed. I have some great ideas coming for articles…hope you enjoyed my latest with Kala…she is such a punk…as all my grandchildren are.
For me…..No chemo until March 10th had to stop and couldn’t finish first cycle. My body said no…… Now I’m out of the cave where I’ve been sleeping for the last two weeks, (23 ours no food hardly any drink). They had to hydrate me with bottles …

Kala, my 19 year old granddaughter stopped to visit me with her sister Mary.We started talking about her true love and what it meant to her.  How does a young woman know when she’s in love and is it real?  I found the conversation interesting as I could see passion and feeling as Kala and I talked.  So here is how Kala feels about her first true love.

Spoke with Dorothy this morning, she has begun her Chemo and is doing as well as can be expected.  She asked that I post the following guest post from her Sister Diane, please lets keep Dorothy in our prayers.

Watching from the outside, a sisters view..

Here is a post from a friend of mine. She wonders under the blanket of friendship, how much do you tolerate and give and still call it a friendship. While I’ve discussed the different kinds of friendships that exist, here’s one that I didn’t think of. Let us know what you’d do…I think my friend could use some of your thoughts. My best…and thanks for this post…
Can You Out Grow a Friend?

My grand daughter Mary and I talked about her future today, she’s at a crossroads. She doesn’t know if she should go to school or get a job. During high school she took cosmetology. At first Mary was pleased with it but eventually she didn’t feel a passion for what she was doing, and she knew it was time to move on. She’s forced to reconsider her options and evaluate her life. We talked about hairstyling and she knows it’s always there to fall back on if needed. However, Mary …

Question, do women give up the great husbands, waiting for the so called soul mate that makes you tingle when you see him? Your heart races, and your body is longing for the next intimate encounter. Is this lust, and can that it be translated into a sound relationship or marriage?

Noah coloring my bald head…
I received the best message on my cell phone from my soon to be 5 year old grandson… Grandma, this is Noah…I love you and I miss you and I’m not going to color on your bald head when you loose your hair.  We’re going to build a doll house instead when I get my tools.  I love you grandma…and I miss you. My heart is still beating fast…..what a joy every one of my grandchildren are. Each bringing a different kind of joy…
