The Softer Side

Dear Readers, I’ve been struggling with binging on food at night. Anything can trigger me, especially salty foods. Sometimes I even hide food from Mr. UT. I wake up feeling bad. I have had struggles with binge eating ever since I had hyper thyroid disease in college. Most people lose weight with this disease, as … Continue reading The Softer Side →

Joy

Dear Readers, I keep waking up singing a song from an old, sappy movie titled the same, Joy in the Morning. I've never watched the movie, but found it in an old music book, and used to sing it long ago. I am not sure why my memory is bringing this song to me at … Continue reading Joy →

Holding Hands

The sky touched me today, Showing off eagles playing in the wind, Brushing my face with blue and white. I am so very grateful we can get outside and hike or walk. On Day 2051, Wendy

Holding Hope

So happy we can walk outside! Dear Readers, I’m writing this on my iPad, which I have done before, but it sure isn’t easy! I have to stay away from Mr. UT because he is working with our computers, and is in his “work mode”! Yikes! Lol We were lucky we had already adjusted to … Continue reading Holding Hope →

These Times

So many thoughts circling in my head, Like the falcon circling in the sky, Looking for its prey, I keep trying to grab one, But like a mouse, It scampers away. So like the falcon, I am left hungry. On Our Walk By the Minnesota River Valley Dear Readers, Mr. UT is helping me stay … Continue reading These Times →

Just a Hello!

Was a Windy Day!! Dear Readers, Mr. UT and I communicate in different languages! On our walk yesterday, we were squabbling about what size a container of wipes we had at home! He said it was small, I said big. Turns out he was comparing it to a big container, and I was comparing it … Continue reading Just a Hello! →

One of Many

We finished our beautiful vacation with a sunset hot air balloon ride, which was gorgeous! There were many balloons going up at the same time, and it was like a festival! The one thing I noticed the most, was how quiet is it up there. The occasional blow of the fire into the balloon is … Continue reading One of Many →

Self-Pity Slips Away

We went tubing!! Dear Readers, The other day I was feeling sad about not being able to hear music with my cochlear implants. People on social media often talk about their favorite songs, singing in the car, and concerts they are going to. I can only listen to talk radio in the car. So I … Continue reading Self-Pity Slips Away →
