Twelve years ago my world flipped around, me like a cat in a dryer....a sturdy Maytag, adament on keeping me tumbling for some time.... Twelve years ago my mom died. Kathryn Royer Vogel Myers Banta Richards Richards Vogel, left the physical plain and I was catapulted into 'adulthood'. Feeling her soul leave her [...]
I have been sleeping a lot during my eye surgery recovery and dreaming. I dream a lot anyway....while awake and especially when asleep. Maurice Sendak's characters are tame compared to what show up on my inner HD widescreen. I've also had time to stop the normal fast spinning ferris wheel of my life for a [...]
I'm midway along this new adventure, a surgery in fact (and as my pal Lulu and I love to say, 'the details don't matter', as often they don't). I traveled to have some eye repair, my first reminiscant surgery when I was 7 years old, then 8. I'm in good care with a doctor I [...]
I'm off on an adventure for the next little while. I hopped (I did, a hop...in red high heels), into my Blue speed racer car around 5:30 this evening and headed north....after a looooong week of the normal ups, downs and arounds.

....are the ones you take all by yourself. The Weepies said it and I concur. I hired a felon today. A sad young man caught up in the spider web of government gone awry. We checked him out, thoroughly I might add. He was in the wrong place at the wrong time....too sad and unfortunate [...]
Love Among the Memories I found myself this past weekend in the lush surrounds of Lancaster, PA, Lititz to be exact, home of Wilbur Chocolate and Linden Hall, now the oldest girl’s school in America, founded in 1747, also my former high school. I arrived on no more beautiful day than I can ever remember. [...]
This just in from www.tut.com..... Dare not wish to change even the slightest thing about a loved one without first understanding how it might change the rest of them. Keep your eye on the ball, The Universe I'd almost forgotten. Comfort has it's penalties. Something about trust. Keep jumping! BB Webb
I awoke, recently....with this paragraph steaming through my head. 'And so you should.....seek ever greater authenticity. ....and always a connection to heart, which to me, is imagining the walk in another's shoes while standing solidly in your own. Listening for what you don't yet realize. Being open to the breath and wisdom between [...]
