Since I retired almost thirteen years ago, I’ve been a bit lost. Blogging has helped so much with my aimlessness, but I really do miss teaching. I get some of that every spring when I do a mini retreat at my church and when I teach a class for special needs adults. But, I yearn …
Always curious… I think I probably drove my parents crazy at times. I was always curious and into everything. If I’d been a kid today, I’d probably be on medication for ADHD. But, that curiosity has followed me into adulthood. For example, what happened to the U in curious when it became curiosity? But, I …
How are things in your neck of the world? We’ve actually had the furnace on several days. The days are warm, but the nights are cool enough for the furnace to kick on. We have a programmable thermostat so there’s none of that constant moving it up and down. I set up a schedule, and …
I apologize from the beginning. There will be no photos of pumpkins in this post. But, I do have pumpkins on my mind. We went to Newfields (aka Indianapolis Museum of Art) today. The architects knew what they were doing when they designed the gift shop. One full (almost) wall of the gift shop is …

Trying a cute title… Laura, at I Do deClaire, always has cute titles for her blog posts. I have to admit she catches my attention which makes me click right through to read her post! Part of that is I have to figure out what her title has to do with the post! If you’re …

Newfields! When we moved to the Indianapolis area, I hoped to take advantage of the cultural opportunities around us. One of my favorite places is the Indianapolis Museum of Art (AKA Newfields). Nigel purchased a family membership the first summer we lived here. Before you think he’s all about the art, let me set you …
