I’ve had my nose in a book the past few days.  Do you ever do that?  Find a book that sucks you in so deeply that it’s all you can think about?  I woke with the sun this Sunday morning and my first thought was of those last few pages waiting to finish the story [...]

Sacred Turkey Shopping

It’s become almost a tradition for me to get up with the sun and go to Walmart for my Thanksgiving shopping trip.  I’m not good with crowds and, by this time of year, our Super Walmart is just packed all day with grocery and holiday shoppers.  I know they’re all doing the same thing I [...]

Sacred Girlie Show!

In her Friday blog, Suze Perot (local artist extraordinaire!) mentioned “The Girlie Show” and, being to internet junkie that I am, I immediately googled and found that it is a local “chicks only” art show, right her in OKC!!  Meg and I went on Saturday and ohmygosh am I EVER in love!!
Here are a few [...]

Pursue the authentic – decide first
what is authentic,
then go after it with all your heart.
Your heart, that place
you don’t even think of cleaning out.
That closet stuffed with savage mementos.”
~louise erdrich

Sacred Sunday Color

Fall in Oklahoma always seems to appear so suddenly.  It creeps in around the end of September with cooler days, the hesitant retirement of flip-flops, and the exuberant opening of windows.  The grass begins to green a little and the trees seem to sigh with relief that summer’s heat has finally lifted.  I catch glimpses [...]

Sacred Sunday Instructions

For a long time now – almost since the beginning of my blog – I’ve been participating in Sacred Life Sunday, which was initiated by Carla Blazek of Zena Musings.  Carla announced several months ago that she wasn’t going to be able to continue updating the participant list, but I kept plugging away and had [...]

Two Sacred Birds

I’m working on an assignment for school that involves comparing my life to that of someone much later in life.  There was no question about who I would choose – it had to  be my grandmother, who turned 82 this past June.

I’ve always been very close to my grandmother – she is the one [...]

Sacred October

I adore October – the fall tent markets start popping up (filled with hay bales, pumpkins and autumn-colored chrysanthemums); the windows are thrown wide open; sweaters, socks and scarves come out; and Halloween is well on the way!
Somehow this time of year makes me want to clear cobwebs and reorganize! Over this past summer, with [...]

I’ve started a section on aging in school this month and learned in my reading today that I am officially well into middle-age.  I’m not exactly sure how or when that happened!  I don’t feel middle aged, people often tell me I don’t look middle aged, and in many ways I feel like my life [...]

Sacred Sunday

There comes a point, when you’ve been absent from someplace so long, that you wonder if you dare return.  But it’s Sunday and I’m missing my little corner of the web.  Plus there’s a bit of something sacred in the air and I just had to acknowledge it.
It’s been raining all day.
I can hear windchimes [...]
