3 CommentsBack in the Groove.
Lately it has been hard to find the time to sit and make myself do my work of choice: write. I have had my life in upheaval. It has not been a bad sort of upheaval. Family has arrived from far away to settle in with us for a bit, while they are looking for...

3 CommentsA “Tug”
I have been wanting to put my thoughts on a couple of things down here for a while, but I wanted to mull them over longer first. My wife posted a blog on her site about something that we’d sort of talked briefly about, but something that interests us both. I’m not sure how to...

1 CommentMy Blog find of the day.
I have been on a blog hunt these days. I am hooked on reading other people’s blogs, but not just anyone and everyone’s blogs. They have to catch my interest, keep it and be something I want to come back to over and over again. I have been getting some great suggestions from friends. I...

New Orleans was a place I never imagined before I actually lived there. I had no idea that it was primarily surrounded by swamps, bayous, and waterways. To get there you can only do so by bridge. I never knew what a ‘camp’ was, or a stoop, or a beignet. I didn’t know the difference...

Comments OffTweet Tweet
I have spent the past few days learning a new subject matter: Twitter. I was first introduced to Twitter by a friend over a year ago, but I deleted my first attempt at it shortly thereafter because I didn’t “get it”. Then a few months ago my wife (@beingcrys) joined Twitter again and checked out...

2 CommentsI Never Want to Forget…
I never want to forget… The sound of his voice, or his laugh. The way he sang to every song that came on the radio, old or new, country or rock… How he loved to dance. How he smelled. The twinkle in his eyes always telling how mischievous he could be. The way he would...
