I wasn’t sure I’d be able to write before we left for Florida—in fact, I thought it was highly unlikely—but here I am. My husband wants to leave at 6 AM. I’m not sure about that, but I’m glad to be here writing. I felt sad about the prospect of not being able to write. …

I have to admit that I feel a bit of judgment creeping in from myself about these writings. Not about doing them exactly, but sharing them. But let me remind myself that I and countless others watch YouTube videos of people’s everyday lives. I don’t know how what I say will affect another who reads…

The coolest thing was happening yesterday morning while I was writing these Pages. Unbeknownst to me, three deer were out back enjoying the corn I’d left the night before. I didn’t find out until I checked the app later in the day. Before starting these Morning Pages today, I glanced at the app and .…

I discovered yesterday that I have books from the Charleston County library that are due right before Christmas and we won’t be in town. I’ve already renewed them once, so I need to make the drive to return them today. Fortunately, I can drive as close as North Charleston to drop them off at a…

Yesterday I found a YouTube channel called Reflections on Life. They beautifully produce videos of people sharing the wisdom they have gained through overcoming difficulties in life. While I worked on crocheting a scarf for my husband, I watched quite a few of the videos, which are generally around 10-15 minutes. One of them has…

I’m so thrilled with the footage I’m seeing on my new trail cam! I placed it toward the back of the property in the area where my greenhouse is set up before the line of trees. The first night three deer showed up. I’d been leaving deer corn out every so often ever since I…

Another “late bloom,” this being a Sunday when I usually have breakfast with my Dad at the crack of dawn. And this will sound silly, but I couldn’t find my notebook paper in my bedroom because everything is still in disarray after moving the furniture around. So, I just decided to buy more paper at…

Unexpected events this morning. All of us who went to last night’s Christmas Show got back to my sister’s house around 10:30 PM. It would have been another hour for me to drive back home. Instead of doing that, my sister made up another bed for me while my nephew brought out a cot for…

I’d forgotten until now that I have a notebook of erasable pages and they are lined similar to these sheets of notebook paper. The cool part of the system is that there’s an app that works with the pages to easily upload them to my place of choice – in my case, Google Drive. And…
