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…

Great Blasket Island
I awoke this morning to an overwhelmingly gray sky, a gray world, and as I looked out from my bedroom window over the expanse of Perkins Creek, I reminded myself that it is a bright sunny day above the cloud cover. So bright is the sunshine on the tops of the clouds that you can…
Read MoreOn Restriction – Again!
During my teen years, I cannot remember a single birthday when I was not on restriction. Honestly, I was a pretty good kid. I never went to any of those “secret parties” in the Old Fort. (These were the days when the Old Fort was in ruins, was clearly marked “Restricted Property,” and was completely…
Read MoreMother’s Foray Into Scouting
I have so many “Dad” stories that it makes for a terrible imbalance. While he was out saving the world and earning piles of citations, medals, and ribbons, Mother was sacrificing her life and desires in support of his career. She never CALLED it a sacrifice. This was expected in her generation. Nevertheless, all of…
Read MoreA New “Do”
Last night, I joined a couple of friends for a New Year’s Eve Dinner. They wanted me to invite a gentleman friend to make it a foursome, but that proved problematic for me. It’s not that I’m running away or hiding from “romance.” It’s just that I’m not desperately seeking it, and I don’t like…
Read MoreA Box of Socks
I am frequently amazed at how smart my dog Perkins is. She absolutely KNEW when it was Christmas morning this year. When we came downstairs, she bypassed the front door and ran straight to the Christmas tree, and then to her stocking, which was the ONLY one hanging over the fireplace. She didn’t remember this…
Read MoreThe Unopened Present
December 26, 2023 There is so much I could write about at Christmas. We all have vibrant memories associated with this time. Unfortunately, although I have been experiencing many inspirational thoughts and memories, I was racing against the calendar and clock to finish a major knitting project I had undertaken for Christmas. To be honest,…
Read MoreFinding Happiness
Isn’t it delightful when you happen upon a discovery, person, or situation that just makes your insides smile even broader than your face? I would call that “finding happiness.” That’s great! But if you are depending on that kind of happenstance to color your world, you might as well make a career of buying Lotto…
Read MoreWinning Over People
We often hear people claiming to be “winning over” someone to Christ, some random idea, or just winning over someone’s heart to be a lover, or for personal acceptance. There are many reasons a person might want to win over someone, but is that always best? Something I have learned is that when you stretch…
Read MoreThe Nature of the Soul
Let me preface this wandering commentary with the following. My beliefs are fluid. In my ignorance and searching, I have tried on many ideas, some with brand names and some of my own divining. Over time they have become both more and less defined, depending on the facet of discussion. Sometime after Cloyde’s death, a…
