Herstory

I have spent a lot of my free time in the past few months by scanning and archiving many old negatives, slides and pictures. Part of the time has been spent with photo albums. Even though I was aware, now I am AWARE that my mother wrote tons of little quips, quotes and descriptions. I will be reading and archiving them next. I also found all of the information, military record and photo album with WWII souvenirs of Ellis F. Bennett. All of this has been helping my ancestry work, too. It's pretty amazing to look back from a place of happiness and gratitude. Here are pictures of Ellis Bennett in dress blue, with Nona Mackey, me with my Aunt Grace who leaved me when I was an infant and me as a cowgirl.

Sitting here watching ..

It is Sunday afternoon and I find myself sitting here on the couch watching television, and the hummingbirds at the feeder, and my tribute candles burning. Quite peaceful and enjoyable. Soon I will enjoy a few moments in my garden with the roses. I never thought I would be one of those ladies that grows roses and yet, here I am and it is just a fine life.

March is here ...

I trust that I am growing in wisdom.
