DUDLEY DREAMING OF CHRISTMAS
I like dream'. I do it all of the time. I like dreamin', closing my eyes and feeling fine. Even if it's in my mind... I changed the lyrics a bit but I just love that song from Kenny Loggins, don't you? It was during Christmas Eve last year. Can you believe it was already last year? Boy, that … [Read more...]
BRING IT ON 2020
Merry Christmas! Someone keeps reminding me, "Hey, you're Jewish, why are you saying Merry Christmas?" I'll tell you why, because I love Christmas. I love everything about it. Don't be my Huckleberry. Or Scrooge. I love the lights, the festivity, the joy and good will, and even the music. Who … [Read more...]
AS THE RAVEN FLIES SO DO I
The year I first met them escapes me. Time has a way of robbing you of recollections. It's inevitable really. The first moment I stood across the river I stared straight up on the white bluff of Mount Dudley. My eyes were drawn to the shrill caw of the husband and wife American Ravens. They make … [Read more...]
THINGS THAT STING!
Facebook! Sometimes I love it, sometimes I hate it. I mostly started using it to notify my kids in the youth group I advised - for eleven years.

While many are grief stricken over losing her, she let it be known that she was unafraid to die and would face it … [Read more...]
NICE RAK!
Ever heard anyone walk up to a total stranger and say "Nice Rak?" Well, it's Valentine's Day. V-Day. The holiest day of the year. You get the idea.

SNOW DOWN AND SMELL THE ROSES
If you're like me, you're moving in several directions all at once with no time to spare. Especially for things that you love to do. When it snowed in Houston this year, a rare occurrence indeed, it really forced me to slow my pace down. Just the shock of watching it snow and stick to the ground in … [Read more...]
WHO’S YOUR DADDY?
Are you a father? Are you a daddy? Is there a difference? Or are you neither? Or are you both? Ever think about that? I never did till recently. Guardians of The Galaxy II. Yes, I'll admit it, I totally geeked out. I loved the movies, Guardians of The Galaxy I & II. If you haven't seen them, … [Read more...]
