31 Days of Aging Grace ~ When When Becomes Now
Day Twelve When I finish this project I will….. When this situation calms down I will…. I’ve spent too much time waiting for “when” . I’ve done the multitasking mom thing and survived, but generally I do – One. Thing. At. A. Time. Grow up Finish school Get a job Get married Have a family When family …

31 Days of Aging Grace ~ Finding Hope
Day Ten I finally went. It was suggested months ago. I was given a phone number, a name, a physical address, an email address. It was laid out before me like a gift… I kept refusing to open. I did yesterday. And sat in a room of 20 or so people… men and women, all ages, …
31 Days of Aging Grace ~ My Handcraft Addiction
Day Nine I’m sure some can relate….at Christmas you get that “unique” knitted sweater, a winter scarf/hat set (you live in a sunny climate), possibly kitchen towels with the crochet trim. You might strike it big and get a knitted afghan. And each holiday seems to be a rotating version of the above. I can explain …

31 Days of Aging Grace ~ Doing it Beautifully
Day Eight I come from a long line of ladies who like to look good. My dad’s mom passed away in my teens, but I have very clear memories. Every day she wore a freshly pressed, floral print dress and sensible shoes. Her hair was curled, lipstick and rouge (that's what they called it back then.. not blush) applied. …

31 Days of Aging Grace ~ Dazed and Confused
Day Six I followed the van thru my neighborhood streets… streets I knew by heart. Wynooski makes a sharp veer to the left. I remembered that slightly “out of control” feeling as each son learned to navigate that curve in early driving lessons. Suddenly, unbelievably, the van missed the left turn and smashed into a …

31 Days of Aging Grace ~ I See Old People
Day Five I love old people. This is a good thing since I am one and getting more so by the minute. I was blessed to know two of my great-grandmothers... one of them even made it to my wedding... 43 years ago. She died a short time before the birth of my first son. Both these …
31 Days of Aging Grace ~ The Far Side of the Sea
Day Four "Where will I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? If I go up to the heavens, you are there; If I make my bed in the depths, you are there. If I rise on the wings of the dawn, If I settle on the far side of the …

31 Days of Aging Grace ~ Scuba Lessons – the rest of the story
Day Three When I first started blogging, I posted several of my scuba adventures. I won’t rehash all that… just share a couple lessons learned that have absolutely nothing to do with scuba. I was almost 54 at the time, but never really thought about age. I just felt like plain old me… the same me I was at 18, …
