December 31, 2012 Today is the last day of 2012. As I'm listening to Brad Paisley's 'Letter To Me,' I wish I could have written myself a letter years ago to help me through life. I, like everyone else, have made mistakes but the good thing about them is that I've learned from them.
December 28, 2012 I have a secret. I am a recovering ‘junk-a-holic.’ I have spent the first part of my adult life trying to organize and hold on to my stuff. I was like an organized hoarder. I had boxes and boxes of stuff. I call it stuff, because I could not tell you what was in those boxes. So every year, around Christmas and New Year I try to do a little de-cluttering.
December 28, 2012 After leaving the station and creeping up the highway back to our home in Clinton yesterday, I couldn't wait to sit back and relax on the couch with a nice cup of hot cocoa.
HA HA!! Fat chance!
December 28, 2012 This season's flu is worse than in past years, in part because we have not seen this flu strain in a while and we don't have immunity. Maine state health officials believe it could get worse before it gets better.
December 26, 2012 Snow is coming! Snow is coming!! Did you hear?? SNOW IS COMING!!!
Get ready, kids, for the chance of a lifetime!! You, that's right, YOU could actually go outside and PLAY! And when you have the opportunity to make a snowman. Don't make just any old snowman...USE YOUR IMAGINATION!
December 25, 2012 If you are going to see older family or friends this holiday, it is a great time to make sure all is well. Of course you want to spend time and visits and that is perfect chance to do this. You just need to put on your thinking cap, take a look around and get chatty. You will learn a lot. AARP even has offers some advice.
December 24, 2012 On Friday night, Chad had a gig with his band, Cold Blue Steel, in Tamworth, New Hampshire and since I didn't have a gig, I got to go, too!
At our home, music is everywhere, all day, every day! Chad and I have both been practicing our guitars and singing songs together. He has been practicing a special song...our song.
December 24, 2012 You and the family can track Santa by using your computer! Christmas is already here in parts of the world and Santa is on his way!
December 19, 2012 The Augusta Salvation Army is doing distribution this week and for the food baskets they need meat. They have been looking for hams and turkeys. The type of thing you would buy as the center piece of your holiday meal. Simply by stopping by the grocery store, picking up something fitting and dropping it off to them you can really help out.
December 19, 2012 Bonnie Ware, a nurse in Australia, published a book called ‘The Top Five Regrets of Dying’. She has worked for several years as a nurse caring for people who are in the last 12 weeks of their lives. Over the time spent caring and consoling, she recorded their dying words and a common theme of regrets.
