Ohhhhh man, I'm sorry I asked, or actually, just sorry. Oh those two boys! Oh their parents, their families! We lose people to rivers and lakes, and even then, some are never found. But the ocean... Ok,

Still thinking of you and your family - I fall off the face of the earth fairly often, these days, but I think of so many Freewrite Friends and Hivers and Silvebloggers and creatives. Imagining/hoping/trusting

I'm so glad your one sister got clean, and hoping/praying your daughter will too. What stories - how do we all survive so many things - and on top of it all, FIRE ANTS..... Prayers, for sure. I have a

Ohhhh, I'm so sorry. Watching a loved one go down that road, the one leading to ruin, and having no powers of persuasion to reel them back - in 1987 I was advised that my sister (alcoholism) would have

I loved that novel!!! At the time I was so young, I read all the 50-page lecture. That was many years ago. These days, life is shorter than before. Not as many years in store (statistically or hypothetically).

Ditto that! LOVE the photos, the child dwarfed by the big kitchen, the child growing up to use those same giant kettles and those gorgeous candy molds. To return to that childhood home is a dream my mother
