I was pulling into the driveway when I noticed my husband Steven and our son Alex, were just finishing hanging the American flag I’d purchased. “I love it!” I cried as I got out of my car. “Just in time for the fourth of July weekend!” “You’re welcome.” Steven said and smiled as he putContinue reading “AMERICANA”

“It looks like a pretty bad storm is coming,” I said to both my boys. We were in our car running errands when I looked up in the Northern sky. “It probably won’t hit us for a while.” Max said. “Can we stop at Taco Bell? I’m starving!” “I really think we should get homeContinue reading “CLOUDBURST”

I hadn’t been to a concert in years, so I was excited when I found myself sitting in Madison Square Garden last weekend waiting for Billy Joel to start playing.

It was a beautiful morning and I was enjoying it by sitting on my back deck.

Before Steven could come outside another little bunnyContinue reading “Beautiful Bunnies”

I walked into the living room carrying a small leather bound book and my favorite pen.

“OH COME ON!” I cried as I looked down at the scale. “YOU’VE GOT TO BE KIDDING!” My husband, Steven has heard me and came to the bathroom door. “Are you okay in there?” he asked. By now I’d dragged the scale to me favorite light spot, close to the sink so I can ‘accidentally’Continue reading “Juice Diet”

As American Pharoah raced over the finish line I swear I could hear my sister, Patty cheering six towns away.

Oh, if he onlyContinue reading “The Winner Is…”

The weekend had arrived and I’d just gotten out of bed. My still sleepy self was making it’s way to the kitchen for a huge cup of wake-the-hell-up-tea, when I saw Steven sitting on the couch finishing the morning paper. “Morning!” he said getting up to hand me the newspaper and give me a quickContinue reading “I’m Doing Nothing”

The weekend had finally come and I was planning on doing nothing but sitting on my deck reading a good book. That is until my son, Alex came out the kitchen door and said, “Hey, I think I might need new shorts.” He was holding up a pair of khaki shorts with one pocket rippedContinue reading “GUY SHOPPING”

Alex comes walking out of his room with his phone in his hand, “What’s this suppose to mean?” he asks as he holds out his phone to me. I look at the message I’d just sent him. It was a picture of a tiny cow’s head and a bell next to it. “The bell isContinue reading “Emoji Love”
