SoCS — Rings
When it came time to get married, I didn’t wanna wear a ring. Like, I know it’s a thing people do, but I’ve never been a fan of rings. I’m not really a jewelry person. I’d met some people who … Continue reading

Ft. Pickens
I’d spent quite a bit of time in the Pensacola area, so there were a few places I wanted to revisit, specifically a beach and a pub, which sounds Florida-typical, non? But I promise you this beach and this pub … Continue reading
VACATION!
We haven’t had a vacation since … um… well… 2010. I know! First there were military leave issues and then we hoarded monies to buy our house. Yay House! But we’ve been in our house about two years now, and we’d really … Continue reading

For the Love of Caps, Fleurs, Pets, and Toes
I think Mother’s Day is as overrated as any other holiday. I may write about it sometime, only, probably not. I’m generally on my throne, waving my scepter around, demanding things, so it’s no big deal to me. Just lemme … Continue reading

Young Love — Y
My dog, Sadie, barks at all kindsa things. She’s a sweetheart, she really is. But when she barks, she doesn’t sound like a sweetheart. No, she sounds like a vicious beast. Visitors beware. When I get to the door, I … Continue reading
Happiness Recovery
As few of you know The Boy, Bubba, our son, has been in town for a little over a week. We also had our nephew for most of that time. Then, because we had Bubba and Simon, we also had some other … Continue reading
Finding the Painting
As I wrote in my Happiness post the other day, joy came to me when I found the painting. Vague, huh? Because it has a story. I’m sure it has a much longer, more interesting story before my section of its story … Continue reading
