We saw the sign last week, inviting us to join them for a concert, and after some maneuvering of the work schedule, join them we did. What a good decision my daughter and I made. The performances were amazing. Men and women of all different ages and backgrounds took turn standing up on the stage … Continue reading We joined them

Missing my mother
It's Mother's Day, and I am missing my mother. My mother died. Nineteen years ago. Sometimes I am embarrassed by the tears that can suddenly overtake me when I realize that I am still missing her so much. Really? At almost 53 years old? Really. Sometimes the emotion sneaks up on me so fast and … Continue reading Missing my mother
The Song of Karen (or whoever)
I went to the Crystal Harp Healing Session at The LoveLight Center with an open mind. I wasn't sure what the 'healing' part was about, but I have heard Cheryl play that instrument before, and that was worth going back for. There were about 9 of us seated in a circle. Shoes were shed at … Continue reading The Song of Karen (or whoever)
Dear Coffee, I love you
"Before coffee, I'm up, I'm moving around, but I'm not awake," said some wise soul somewhere. Until I typed the words, I actually couldn't remember where I'd heard it but I just did. Peter Falk uttered this truism in one of his Columbo episodes. Truer words (about me) were never spoken. How did I get … Continue reading Dear Coffee, I love you
New kid in town
Maybe you, like me, have wondered about the new signage in front of a house on Rt 1 in Wells, the one that says The LoveLight Center. What's up with that? I saw a flag waving "OPEN" at me yesterday so I took a chance (remember, I'm brave in 2015!) and ran in. I met … Continue reading New kid in town
Telling our story
I was at a craft show a couple of weekends ago. The weather was awful--freezing rain coating the icy snow on the ground that fell overnight. As soon as I got through the door, I stopped to shake it off of me. The first thing I saw was a table of scarves and hats, and … Continue reading Telling our story
Smooth sailing-not
You know how they say you know when you are on the right path? That doors fly open? The road rises up to meet you? Well, when I decided to knit a prayer shawl for my friend, this is what I expected to happen. I was wrong. First, I couldn't find my knitting (note: expensive) … Continue reading Smooth sailing-not
Long time no see
I went to see Melissa at Deep Blue Truth in Kennebunk today. I go every year (at least once) near my birthday as a present to myself. I always get messages from one or more of my friends and relatives that have died, and today was no exception. When they come through, they always talk … Continue reading Long time no see
Faith, Hope, and Charity
My grandmother Emily, my mother's mother, was the only girl in her family of five. Yep; she had four, count 'em, four brothers. At least, that was what I thought when I was a girl. When I got older, she told me that she actually had three sisters. Triplets. They were named Faith, Hope, and … Continue reading Faith, Hope, and Charity
The kindness of strangers
My daughter was working in a project for her history class that required her to do a Jackie Chan impersonation. This required her to wear a gi ( full disclosure: until I googled it I was spelling it 'gee'-my bad). Izzy did take karate years ago...for about 5 minutes. Needless to say, we did not … Continue reading The kindness of strangers
