The Little Bucket List

 Each week I try to.....

Experience something new.

Connect with a friend.

Enjoy something cultural. 

A dear friend in France shared this list with me a year ago. Larry and I are still using it as our "little" bucket list.

This week, we did go out of our way and ate at a new (new to us) restaurant. It was a wonderful cafe...good wine & good food. It is called TruFire Kitchen in Frisco, Texas.

I had the rosemary chicken pizza and a glass of wine, and I also had the best date in the restaurant. (Larry)

Today I am doing something cultural by putting a coat of varnish on a painting that I just finished.

Do you have a bucket list?

Love you beyond the moon.

Blooming

 My sweet Black Eyed Susans 

are starting to bloom this week.

There is a flower bed of them 

outside our front door,

and they make me happy.

“Even in darkness, there is light.” –

 Reflects the flower’s golden petals shining through the dark center, symbolizing hope amid adversity 

Love you beyond the moon.

The Necklace

 One of my favorite gifts last Christmas, was a walking stick from the Brazos river. 

(Thank you Jared)

This week, I made a necklace for it out of found crystals.

I like this so much and it reminds 

me to carry the stick on my walks.

I wish you the happiest day.

Love you beyond the moon.

The Uncle

 Uncle Bruce was born on May 26

and was my father's younger brother.

When the father daughter relationship

 with my father ended,

Uncle Bruce became a very special person in my life.

He was a blessing to my family and to me.

I think of him so very often, 

but especially today.

My daughters called him "The Uncle"....

To me he is Uncle Bruce.

Happy Birthday you wonderful man.

I miss you very much.

Love you beyond the moon.

Happy memorial Day 2026.
