The difference between our cats: a photo essay. These two. They look exactly alike, but they could not be more different. Can’t tell who’s who? Hint: Murphy loves us; Violet loves gravity.

I Stand Corrected.
Today was the first day of the GO! St. Louis Family Fitness weekend. First stop: Forest Park. I was set to volunteer for the elementary school races, but I went to the 5K first to see a few friends and colleagues race. As I waited for the 5K to start, I checked out the racers at the…
Reminiscence
Take care of all your memories, for you cannot relive them. – Bob Dylan
What’s the hurry?
I’m pleased to share that I have a Distracted Churchgoer post that does not include photographs from church. It nearly killed me, but I promised myself ahead of time that I’d leave my phone in my purse during the service. First temptation: a man with four children slid into the pew ahead of me —…
Unusual Beauty
“The world is full of nice people. If you can’t find one, be one.” Tonight, I found a really nice one. We’re back at the hospital for another round of the dreaded MRIs. The same MRIs that confine my kids to a claustrophobic tube for anywhere between three and four hours a pop. A recent…
Another Gem
He saw this and couldn’t resist. He just had to send it to her. This is a love note from my grampa to my grandmother postmarked 1911. I found it while rummaging through yet another box of old photos. Undoubtedly he saw himself in the enamoured gentleman in the illustration. What a smitten kitten….
We’re All Stories in the End
May every chapter be beautiful.
Happiness is…
…not taking yourself too seriously. (Anybody else reminded of that classic Cadbury Easter Egg commercial?)
The Real Deal
I saw this sculpture at the art museum last weekend and I keep coming back to this photo of it. This piece made me stop and stare for the longest time. Have you ever seen Jesus portrayed as a joyful baby? Or Mary gazing at him with the love a real mom has for her…
Well, That Makes Sense.
It’s interesting (and entirely appropriate) that the first day of spring coincides with the International Day of Happiness, don’t you think? (Even if ours did start with an unexpected snow shower.) Hello, Spring. Hello, Happiness. Here’s to the season of renewed hopes, new beginnings, and fresh starts.
Today’s Post is Brought to You By…
…the letter “T.” Tuesday’s trip to Trader Joe’s for truly terrific tulips. (Thanks, folks. I’ll be here all week.)
Wise Little Message
“There will come a time when you believe everything is finished. That will be the beginning.” – Louis L’Amour, author Well, would you look at this brazen little sucker. Previously pruned, leaves gone, confined by its fence while left to fend off winter’s elements… the outlook seemed a bit bleak for this little thing over…
Art in Bloom
Today brought a trip to the art museum for Art in Bloom, an exhibit featuring floral interpretations of some of the museum’s collection. Gorgeous stuff…
In Light of Yesterday’s Post…
This was waiting for me at church this morning. I’m just saying.
Never Too Late
It may be Monday, but tomorrow is a new day. A new day, a new week, a new opportunity to make things different. Better. A new beginning. It’s never too late.
A Very Good Day (Part II)
Got my birthday (cup)cake after the Garden at SweetArt, where love, magic, sweets and fantastic art are served every time. Because I can say after 45 years…life is short, eat dessert first. I have no other reason for posting this photo than I thought it was funny. That’s some cute advertising. After cupcakes, we headed…
Be Together…
Not the same. My new favorite commercial. Sweetly bucking the current trend of bullying that seems to be increasingly glorified and rewarded in our country.

Snow Fun
Big thanks to my friends who sent me this video. You know me too well.
I Don’t Know Where I’m Going From Here…
…but I promise it won’t be boring. – David Bowie Ziggy is now stardust. Rest in peace.
This and That
If photos reflect a current state of mind, then mine has been a little quirky.
Maybe.
