Holy long time no blog. Since I left my 8-year relationship with M&M, I moved 5 times, bought a house, been blessed with a wonderful job and got married (in our new front lawn -- see pic). Here are me and my husband, Stu. So happy...but a bit sad I have been away (guess I've been busy?)
Hope all of you are well and happy. I know I am. *smoochies*

To My Dear Friend
Always
Shattered and broken,
Tainted and bruised by loss...for a brief time.
My soul to be touched by the warmth of yours,
But no more.
The future holds a dim gleam of hope, but
The days will pass as I place one foot in front of the other,
And breathe.
Until then,
Healing is wisdom and insurmountably so.
Relief is here knowing you will find happiness,
and I continue to find peace...
Always.

Purely Inspired
Discovery
The gentleness of my hand touches your face and with a slight downward motion, I close your eyes.
I kiss you lightly and tenderly...
Then all that is heard are my footsteps exiting through the door at a quick pace not to turn back.
Closed and locked tightly,
I find myself as far away from the finality of its closure as I need to be.
Afraid, I hide; in a ball, I curl.
You open the door and saunter in…quietly and confidently.
You have found me.
Not to worry, my angel. Trust me and know all is meant to be.
Lifting my tear-stained face from the pillow, you place my concern into your heart.
I look into your blue eyes…and I know, without a doubt,
That I have finally found --
peace.

It's a New Day
She gracefully and humbly climbed into her hole. It was comfortable and away from life; away from others who might see her true self: poor, fostered by strangers, anxious, depressed. It was true solitude, though uncomfortable, sad, and lonely, it was the best place to be...for now. Crouched down, face between knees, the tears dropped one by one from the corner of her eyes onto her young skin. Silently a prayer was formed and sent to an upper being that would allow her to be able to see -- to see hope, love, and happiness.Then the pain subsided -- physical, emotional, spiritual -- and the sun peeked out from behind the sparse clouds in the sky.
One foot in front of the other, slowly, but surely she stood tall and again faced the world.
.................
A new day has dawned; her prayer answered.

April Fools'!
Because I lived in Topeka, Kansas for a stint while attending the University of Kansas, I thought it apropos to post this interesting tidbit in honor of April Fools' Day (coupled with the fact that this is a Google blog, and I have a Google email, of course).It is said that some believe that Google played this prank on readers because at one time in history, the mayor of Topeka, Kansas changed its city name to Google, Kansas for a month…for tourism!
I, for one, think this is nifty.

Diphthong
A gliding monosyllabic speech sound (as the vowel combination at the end of toy) that starts at or near the articulatory position for one vowel and moves to or toward the position of another. Being born and bred in Kansas, I get it. Those up north, I’m think’n...not so much.

Humor on a Monday
If you're going to drink, don't drive. Don't even putt.

Counting Blessings
Job search was quick and painless…Seven months elapsed, head extracted, cleaned and purified, cobwebs dusted. Called “Dee” and there it was, just beyond the horizon – I became one with the light at the end of what seemed like a never-ending tunnel...and within just one day.
My niche for editing has been realized yet again. Wonders never cease.
The grass is green, the trees again have flourishing leaves, and I hear the birds chirping. I hereby count my blessings.
