Ecclesiastes : For everything there is a season, And a time for every matter under heaven: A time to be born, and a time to die; A time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted; A time to kill, and a time to heal; A time to break down, and a time to build up; A time to weep, and a time to laugh; A time to mourn, and a time to dance; A time to throw away stones, and a time to gather stones together; A time to embrace, And a time to refrain from embracing; A time to seek, and a time to lose; A time to keep, and a time to throw away; A time to tear, and a time to sew; A time to keep silence, and a time to speak; A time to love, and a time to hate, A time for war, and a time for peace. Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

i have been trying really hard to recall happy thoughts every night before bed so I can conjure good sleep. I am am a teeth grinding, dream screaming person. I can nap really well, but nighttime is my witching hour. Happy memory... Allie about 4 Missy about 2. We lived on the farm and had a fenced in side yard. We could sit out there and just chill out for the day. No worries. I had a blanket out on the grass, early summer. 20 feet from the back door and the girls and I had a day on a blanket. Looked at the tree in the yard. smelled the farm. played in the sandbox. I put lunch on their little picnic table. we listened to music and I loved them. Loved them adore them pray for them live for them and want all that is good and beautiful for them. Foreward 15 years and I am in the hospital after open heart surgery thinking I am dead and my daughters are there by my side whispering in my ear that they love me and hang in there they need me dont leave them. I vividly remember te...

Did you ever hear of a charmed life? That is me. I got a chance to take my children and my Mother to my brother and sister in laws home in upstate New York for the weekend. A beautiful home on beautiful property lots of snow and cozy family kids skiing I am lucky. The only thing missing was my husband. I often tease about my time alone but truthfully i missed him this weekend. I got home today and he had to leave for the city. He will be home tomorrow and will be home for the week. I simply love him, and know how lucky I am to have his love in return. any way I will attach some photos from the weekend.

Andy and I had a beautiful day together today. I think it was something we needed but I didnt realize it. We left the house this am with Jack and just decided to go antique hunting. We spent the day together and went to Goode Olde things. It is an architecture, and salvage facility. There is one in LA, Chicago, and I believe the main warehouse is here in Scranton PA. Well if anyone adores architecture and History and design and sculpture, as much as I do it was truly a memorable trip. Problem only one is it is freezing here so the warehouse is just as cold. We walked three football fields lengths filled with marble, iron, chairs, desks, fireplace mantles, mirrors, all salvage from buildings being torn down or redesigned. Huge mantles from asbury park homes of the early 1900's. The most inspiring things I saw were stained glass windows. At leat 100 yards of windows from churches synagogues banks, courthouses, homes, banks. beautiful. I found one that I loved but it was...
