The Journey Continues - Now?
Hello!
Today was a great day. Yesterday, not so much.
Yesterday I was lonely and feeling sorry for myself! Almost a whole year since George passed and I have had... I really don't remember having many bad days and certainly haven't been lonely.
It was unusual, but maybe it was a really good thing because I am going to be traveling with a bunch of other people in the next few weeks and

First, let me talk about the book. Then I will talk about other things, I promise. Sorry to go on and on about this new author stuff. This writing and publishing and promoting is all new to me and it takes over my everyday thoughts.
The other day I was talking with someone who had been a caregiver. We shared the feeling of joy and purpose that flowed through most of our days.

Too Silly to be Old
I am having fun. I hope you are too.
I am proud to be a monarch momma. Love those fat little guys that turn into orange butterflies that visit my garden. I have been starting new milkweed plants (it is the only plant that the caterpillars feast on.) And a friend of mine has asked me to save the seeds and she is going to plant a large area in Milkweed. It does well here. The plants look so

Only One Day to the Alzheimer's Trippin' Kindle Book Launch!
Happy Wednesday, March 20, 2019. Tomorrow, tomorrow, I love you tomorrow... you're only a day away.
I had great news yesterday, two rockstars in the recumbent riding world ordered my Kindle book and announced it on Facebook.
I have 34 Kindle books pre-ordered now. I don't know if that is enough to excite Amazon into helping promote the book.
If you order the book or the kindle, share the
