Postcard from Raven: Boston’s Historic Freedom Trail

June 29, 2018July 3, 20189 Comments

My [now former] student Raven sent me a postcard! I can’t tell how much it brightened my day! Recently liberated from college (Bachelor of Arts in English, of course), this sweet, quiet soul has stepped out and is making her way in the world. First stop, Boston. Raven mused about how coincidental it was for … Continue reading Postcard from Raven: Boston’s Historic Freedom Trail

#ThursdayTreeLove | When Great Trees Fall, or My Father’s Tree

March 10, 2022March 13, 202224 Comments

Yesterday, while I was considering using the tree above for today’s #ThursdayTreeLove, I received a text message from my Raven, asking if I were in my office. I had a moment of excitement thinking she was visiting from California and was on her way to see me. Sadly, that was not the case. However, she … Continue reading #ThursdayTreeLove | When Great Trees Fall, or My Father’s Tree

Favorite Moments of 2021

December 31, 2021January 1, 202221 Comments

This year showed us–no matter how much chaos is around us–life continues. The year was brutal. Countless losses, “too many funerals,” constant change, and far too much heartache. But, as I’ve pointed out on many occasions, there’s also been good. As we close out 2021, I’m reflecting as I did last year, on some of … Continue reading Favorite Moments of 2021

Favorite Moments of 2020

December 30, 2020January 3, 202121 Comments

My blogging friend, Akilah of The Englishist, recently posted her favorite moments of 2020. I’m “stealing” her idea because I think we all need a reminder that despite the icky, crazy of this year, there is also a lot of good. Plus, as you know, I love making lists. So here are some of my … Continue reading Favorite Moments of 2020

Two Cards | Appropriate for These Times | #WordlessWednesday

June 10, 20206 Comments

I read a Washington Post article this morning that reported the number of COVID-19 hospitalizations is rising in several U.S. states. The card says it all. It’s hard not to worry, but I am consoling myself with the hope that we are giving birth to something new and healthy. About the Images: I received the … Continue reading Two Cards | Appropriate for These Times | #WordlessWednesday

Joy Break 3 | Infallible Sign | #Wordless Wednesday

July 3, 2019July 3, 20197 Comments

Joy is the infallible sign of the presence of God. –Pierre Teilhard de Chardin For today’s #WordlessWednesday, I’m sharing three photos my Raven shot with her “not iPhone” while on a walk yesterday. 🙂 She texted the photos to me with the message that she “thought to flower up [my] day.” I smiled from the … Continue reading Joy Break 3 | Infallible Sign | #Wordless Wednesday

Many Kinds of Blessings

April 24, 2019April 25, 20195 Comments

Instruction ended today. Of course, I can’t celebrate too enthusiastically because after the last day of classes the most difficult work begins. At this moment, university professors everywhere are clenching their teeth and focusing all their energy on overcoming the major hurdle of final grading and the accompanying drama of begging, pleading, and “shopping” for … Continue reading Many Kinds of Blessings

During trying weeks, the sunflowers always find me. Last week, which tried me backwards and forwards, @liv.wav brought them to me. Thank you, Livi!
Merry Christmas to you and yours!
Dreaming about the brownie I can't have...
Keep a tree in your heart.
To be a flower...
