In my first post on my garden project I shared my how I lost my first plants. Since that time I've talked to my aunt who is a gardening wizard and she gave me some great pointers. I also bought another tomato book, it was free and I love a deal. My efforts and patience… Continue reading Garden – update
Cookout Ettiquette 2014
It's officially summer. At the suggestion of a friend, here are my rules for a successful cookout season. Just a side note for you non-Southerners, barbeque(cue) is something you eat not something you do. You grill or cookout, but you never barbeque(cue). 1. The cookout should start no later than 1 hour after the agreed… Continue reading Cookout Ettiquette 2014
My New Project
The first half of the year has been a whirlwind for me. I bought a house a few months ago and have been trying to get settled in.

Renewed Love
Since I can remember I have loved reading. I mean real reading, not just gossip magazines. I love all genres except sci-fi and romance. One of my earliest memories was Saturday mornings with my mother at this quaint little book store called The Book Rack. You could trade your old books in for new books.… Continue reading Renewed Love

Your person is there through the good and bad days. When you get great news who is the first person you call or… Continue reading My/Your Person
Protect your Name
My wise grandmother always used to tell us you only have one name so take care of it. I know, at first it confused us grandchildren too. Only as I entered adulthood did I really begin to understand what she was saying. I wish she were alive today so I could thank her for those… Continue reading Protect your Name
Make It A Great Day
If you call my work phone and get my voicemail you'll always hear the end greeting, "Make it a great day". It has been the signature on my voicemail at every company I've worked for. I know most people say "have a great day" but I prefer "make it a great day". Have a great… Continue reading Make It A Great Day
