When The Answers Don’t Come…
Repost for those who have ‘hurting hearts’. Sometimes we don’t know the answer. My heart aches for all those in pain. Precious children fighting the battle of cancer. Special people I have met in my life who battle mental illnesses. The … Continue reading
Who’s Going to Carve the Jack-o-lantern?
I’ve really enjoyed my fall arrangement of pumpkins and mums. Think every time I’ve walked out the door, I’ve gotten a glimpse of them and taken a moment to breathe in and savor a bit of fall. But at 49andcounting … Continue reading

Hello, Yeah, It’s Been A While…
Finally back to Pennsylvania from over two weeks in Kansas and well, I just have so much randomness to tell you… *The rain followed me home, and I am not particularly happy about that! Is really messing with my “fall … Continue reading
Just The Way Grammy Does It…
In my books my Gaga was the best cook ever. Only Gaga could make the perfect cinnamon rolls. I’d watch her punch the dough, roll it out, and mix her special “goopey” for the bottom of the pan. Mmmmm, they … Continue reading

How Did I Raise Those Children???
