I’ve been on Facebook almost a year now and have enjoyed connecting and sharing with old friends, relatives, and former students. Evidently, the network has grown by leaps and bounds and has to reconfigure settings occasionally. Hopefully, the folks at FB can continue to provide this service to its users and ensure our privacy at the same [...]

Just finished the dishes and am enjoying making connections with friends and relatives all over the country on Facebook. The changes that have taken place during the past fifty years boggle the mind!

Thankful Log: Christmas Ornaments

For the first time in my life I decorated my tree this year with Chrismons. It’s gorgeous And so meaningful. I understand that most of the symbols used for Chrismons are symbols early Christians used to communicate…especially when experiencing persecution. I look forward to learning and sharing the meaning of each ornament with my family and friends [...]

I can’t imagine living where the seasons never change and am so thankful that here in NM, we are blessed with a colorful fall, a bit of snow in winter, lovely spring weather, and a wonderful summer growing season. “At Christmas I no more desire a rose Than wish a snow in May’s new-fangled mirth; But [...]
Thankful Log: My Friends

What is a friend? My favorite friends are the ones who stick by me through the rough bumps in life…those knocks I didn’t bring upon myself and the ones that are obviously the consequences of my own stupidity! That kind of friend is a joy to be with… whether we visit, work together, play together, or just “be” together. I laugh a lot with [...]
