Welcome to me being me and the hodgepodge of topics that make me who I am.

I am from Red Dirt

Last evening I was introduced to a poem – “Where I’m From” by George Ella Lyon. We were offered a template and encouraged to write and share our own version. I wrote a few things last night but the thoughts have lingered on into today. So, I took some time to rewrite – to add – to polish – to reminisce. It’s funny how emotional it feels…how personal. I added pictures, because they made me smile…because they also represent where I am from. Last night I so appreciated how well I felt I got to know those who shared. It gave a new appreciation for people and their past. For what makes them the unique person they are today. I hope this affords you an opportunity The rest of the story

50k at 50

In less than 2 weeks I am going to do something I never thought I’d do…..turn 50! If you’ve already been there and done that….then you know! If you haven’t yet been there and done that….then YOU know! 50 IS OLD!!!!!!! I wanted to walk a marathon to commemorate my 50th birthday. But by the time I got my act together the Disney marathon was full. So, I decided to do my own self supported marathon….but, well to be honest never got all that excited about spending my entire birthday walking in potentially cold weather!

30 DAYS OF THANKFUL – DAY THIRTEEN: Good Books

2012/11/13 Gayle 0

There is nothing better than a good book! And today I am thankful for good books. There really is nothing better than a cozy seat, interesting characters  and a well written story which draws you into the world of a book. Beyond being thankful for the books I am thankful for the ability to read. Sadly not everyone in our great society has the ability to read. I am also thankful that I can choose to read most anything I wish….censorship is alive and well in many places of the world. And lastly, I am thankful for the public library where I can find many book free of charge. Thanks for reading 🙂

Although I can, in unique situations when the sun, the moon and the stars are all properly aligned, be down right silly (it never lasts, and is witnessed by few). However, I have embarked on an adventure which can be deemed nothing less than silly! AND, I am inviting you to The rest of the story
