BlahBlahBlog Explained
I’ve been telling stories since I could talk, and wrote my first comic book, “The Spooky Boos,” in 3rd grade. When not committing stories to words, I was drawing pictures of them. I thought, “Hey! Some of these are worth sharing!” So, I decided to create a blog. But I got held up for 5…

The Magic of Touch
Because I’m not dead yet, I need to change this, not the world, just what I do in it. I have my opinions, although they have changed and undulated over the years with experience, learning, and perspective. I hope they continue to do this because I’m still alive and growing in knowledge and spirit if…
Read MoreThe Right Dog
Perhaps she was a little too young when I took her to Obedience School. If a grade were given, I’d say she passed with a low C-minus. She was far too happy to be in the company of multiple other dogs with so many interesting-smelling body parts. Nevertheless, I worked diligently with her daily for…
Read MoreWhat Mother Didn’t Know
One day last summer, I was reminded of my childhood as I hobbled around on one and a half feet because I’d stepped on a nail down at the water’s edge next to my dock. I was gathering sticks for Perkins’s favorite game when I stumbled and heavily planted my foot on a well-camouflaged board.…
Read MoreYeah, Yeah Stories….
After high school I had limited contact with my parents. While I was in college in Virginia they moved to Louisiana (another story in itself). I saw them only during Christmas and summer breaks. Following my third year, I married and was permanently in Virginia, a thousand miles from their chosen final home. Traveling there…
Read MoreThank You, Burt Mustin!
Until very recently, I didn’t know his name. But I knew his face. He was a character actor who played in more than 150 movies and TV programs as well as working on radio and the stage from 1951- 1977. He was that recognizable tall, gangly, bald old man who just showed up everywhere. But…
Read MoreThe Great Game of “Yes – But”
We all play the game of “Yes – But(t)….” And we each choose which “butt” is defensible. There is a lesson here and I well remember being taught it by my father (over and over again, as a matter of fact). It was not a pleasant lesson, and I fear too few people have learned…
Read MorePledging a Sorority
I think we can agree that each of us tends to judge our world based on our own “normalcy.” I always assumed I was a normal person, raised in a normal family, living a normal existence. Anything or anyone drastically outside of that understanding was “different,” bordering on “odd.” Most of us probably started out…
Read MoreSlippers and Stuff
I love my purple slippers. They are the best slippers I’ve ever owned, even now that they are three years old. They are purple suede slip-ons lined with fleece. They have soles thick enough that I can carry out the trash across the gravel driveway without bruising or soaking my tender feet in snow melt.…
Read MorePick One Moment
Someone asked me to “pick that one moment in your life you’d like to live over and over again.” Either that was a really dumb challenge, or maybe I’ve just moved so far beyond that mindset that I can’t seriously consider it. It would make more sense to ask if I remembered where I was…
Read MoreImportant People
Who are the “important people” and what makes them so? I had an in-law with whom I could never bond. Any time we would begin a conversation, I could never hold his gaze. His eyes were searching the room to see who else came in, and the minute someone more important arrived he would turn…
