- [The things we gather from a lifetime](https://my2cents.click/2025/01/18/the-things-we-gather-from-a-lifetime/) - You can’t take it with you. No matter how long you have had it, or how much you love it and care for it, that precious item will be here after you are long gone. We all have things. Things we bought with our first paycheck, things that were given to us by someone who
- [I want to believe](https://my2cents.click/2024/11/11/dont-stop-believing/) - It can't be that bad. Those are the words I wish I could believe. But I can’t. Trump says he wants to be a dictator, that he wants to punish and incarcerate his opponents, that he wants to seek out “the enemy within” and destroy it. He says he is going to be the “protector
- [Choosing my words carefully](https://my2cents.click/2023/05/09/choosing-my-words-carefully/) - Me - who spent most of my high school years in the role of rebel, advocate and budding writer - was being asked to speak about sports. I would have been much less surprised to speak at a banquet about journalism or writing in general. At events these days, I often speak about plants.
- [Pamyua: Music, people that speak to your soul](https://my2cents.click/2023/03/22/pamyua-music-people-that-speak-to-your-soul/)
- [Seeing the Light Ahead](https://my2cents.click/2022/11/17/seeing-the-light-ahead/) - There is the balance we must seek - and we count on those who love us and care for us to help us decide when to fight and when to yield.
- [Dealing with the virus](https://my2cents.click/2022/08/26/dealing-with-the-virus/) - So this is COVID. Feeling fine all day, then suddenly having a sore throat and a nagging little cough until bed. Then dreaming about numbers (I always count things in my dreams when I am sick) and waking up thinking I have plants growing inside my CPAP mask. That was my introduction to COVID, which
- [A small, red raspberry](https://my2cents.click/2022/07/26/a-small-red-raspberry/) - It’s such a little thing. Round and red - tart, but sweet. Tiny seeds that get stuck in your teeth. Raspberries. The last 10 days have placed me in raspberry heaven and hell at the same time. The unrelenting heat, without much rain at all, has given me a bountiful crop of rich, red raspberries
- [Finding the right words](https://my2cents.click/2022/05/20/finding-the-right-words/) - … I was preparing myself for a future that held plenty of unknowns. It opened my eyes to all the people in my life who were facing their own personal crises. And there are many - as Jeff and I are firmly immersed in the Baby Boomer Generation. We have many friends and family members who are dealing with medical changes and losses in their lives.
- [Cherishing my Family and Friends](https://my2cents.click/2022/05/04/149/) - “It is not an overstatement to say that our greenhouse is a special place. … It is warm and filled with color and life and music and laughter and love.”
- [A good decision](https://my2cents.click/2022/03/02/a-good-decision/) - Over the years as a reporter, I was followed, harassed, threatened and yelled at. How did I handle it?I kept on investigating, reporting and writing.
- [The joy of a ‘nice lunch’](https://my2cents.click/2022/02/01/the-joy-of-a-nice-lunch/) - Sometimes, it’s the little things that bring back strong memories of those important people in our lives. Like a nice lunch …
- [Planting the seeds of the future](https://my2cents.click/2022/01/20/planting-the-seeds-of-the-future/) - So many choices, so little room. Selecting and planting seeds for the upcoming growing season is challenging and rewarding.
- [Turning a negative into a positive](https://my2cents.click/2022/01/06/turning-a-negative-into-a-positive/) - Sometimes, a brush with something that has you worried can steer your mind in the right direction.
- [Welcoming a New Year without resolutions](https://my2cents.click/2021/12/31/welcoming-a-new-year-without-resolutions/) - On New Year’s Day, many turn to resolutions to start fresh. I choose, instead, to focus on doing something each and every day.
- [Holiday stress - searching for a happy Christmas](https://my2cents.click/2021/12/21/holiday-stress-searching-for-a-happy-christmas/) - Why do we do it? The stress, the planning, the exhaustion - all to create a “perfect” holiday takes away from the real meaning of Christmas.
- [There’s always room for more love](https://my2cents.click/2021/12/16/theres-always-room-for-more-love/) - #post_excerptHow much room do you have in your heart? I always knew I had plenty, but the addition of a new family member has open my eyes and my heart.
- [How do you plan to spend the holidays?](https://my2cents.click/2021/12/07/how-do-you-plan-to-spend-the-holidays/) - Christmas is just three weeks away, and again we are handed decisions we must make about how, and with whom, we will spend the holidays.
