He failed this time, although, I wish he had prevailed, but one thing I know is, he will keep trying. I know I need to keep trying to keep … Continue reading Staying Optimistic →

Reconnecting

A Blue Sky Day! Dear Readers, I am reconnecting to my writing. I have missed it, but felt such a void of thoughts and words, I really had nothing to say. So many people are suffering in so many ways, that anything I think of to say or write seems trivial. My emotions have run … Continue reading Reconnecting →

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

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!

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 →

This year I thought I'd try it, and I actually came up with one. I decided my word is "Challenge". I have been comfortable with … Continue reading Word of The Year →

Candy Induced Thoughts

Dear Readers, Santa came to our house and brought delicious candy. Too much candy, so I told Mr. UT to hide it, and dole it out to me. He can moderate, except when it comes to cookies. I actually made sugar cookies, my mother's recipe, and they were so good, he had them for breakfast … Continue reading Candy Induced Thoughts →
