First of all, for all of you who inquired about the gravy that went with the chicken fried steak the other day (and fried pork chops Saturday evening), it was, indeed, "white" gravy! You know - the kind made with pan drippings, flour and milk!! And, boy, was it ever good. Good ol' southern [...]
Hi! All is well here and the weather really is beautiful. We have the house all opened up and even though it's nearly noon, the temperature is in the 70s and there is a cool breeze blowing through the house. Wonderful!

About an hour ago (11:40 a.m.) it was so low standing up that my blood [...]
Today is a very blessed day. Today is my younger son Mark's birthday. He is truly a gift from God and has become everything I ever prayed for him to become and more. For validation of that statement, read the short eloquent post his wife, Lynn, wrote about him this morning at "My Charmed Life." [...]
[Note: This is the 4th and last possible selection for entry in the Writing Contest. I can submit three pieces of work and after y'all read this post, please comment to let me know not only what you think about it, but which three of the last four Wind Vane stories you think I should [...]
I'm still here.I've been feeling completely overwhelmed and in shock the past several days with this new turn of events in my life, but have been doing my best, at Tom's guidance, which is God given, to focus on my life one precious moment at a time.And I literally mean, from one moment to the [...]
