The Second Year
So many people advised me about “that first year of widowhood.” They’d say, “Don’t make any major decisions that first year.” And others privately shared that the second year was harder.

Exploding Gardenia Blooms
I have never seen a gardenia bush produce such an explosion of so many blossoms all at once. That is my favorite flower fragrance of all. I fell in love with it when my late husband and I went to Hawaii for our long-awaited honeymoon, 30 years after we were married. It was also his…

I Think He Did It Again!
Not that long ago (described in an earlier post), I received two huge gardenia bushes in the mail from a friend who had only ordered one. The plants, the boxes, and even the messages were identical. The gardenia plant was the perfect congratulations present for the launching of my book “You Don’t Know Jack!” because…

Cash Register Energy
First thing this morning, I went to JoAnn’s to pick up two cans of spray paint for a craft project. No one was there except me and the employess so it was fun being the only shopper. I happen to have my 40% off one item coupon and got up to the register to pay.…
