When you’re falling awake
And you take stock of the new day
And you hear your voice croak
As you choke on what you need to say –
Well, don’t you fret, don’t you fear
I will give you good cheer

Can I be honest?
Honestly? I'm not sure I can be. lol The truth is I took some photos and I really do not have the courage to post them. For one thing, I definitely look pregnant. Since I'm all the way into menopause I either ate too much pizza or there is an immaculate conception...
Life is One Long Losing Weight Song
I am starting a diet. Again. #95,672. Life is one long losing weight song it seems. I recently found some old diet journals from waaay back when. My goodness I have been struggling with this same issue for so long. You know what's Really Cute though? I love...
Life’s a long song
Haven’t been feeling very resilient lately (months..) but I guess I have a good excuse. So I decided to change my name of my blog to Life Is A Long Song – compliments of Jethro Tull.
All I hear is “resilient..”
I am not sure I've ever heard the term "resilient" bandied about as much as I have the last month or so. Suddenly everything's "resilient". New York is resilient. Health care workers are resilient. Americans are resilient. Italians are resilient. The Earth itself is...

Jail Break! Part I
Man, little did I realize on our last trip to Portsmouth that that would be the last time for who knows how long til we can drive somewhere, see the ocean, walk a beach and get some wonderful fresh oysters, fried clams or scallops. Usually this time of the year we're...

Honestly, OOFOS Sandals are like walking on clouds
I know my husband loves me, especially when I see he left his OOFOS Sandals at the top of the stairs where I'd definitely see them. He knows that I like to wear them because, let's face it - your body gets a little less "reliable" once you hit a certain age! He knows...
