Mama of this empty nest, I’m content to live a quiet, country life with my husband of 40+ years and to view gorgeous sunsets off our own back yard deck. Mama to three adults and Nana to adorable grandchildren, my empty nest fills up again with noise and laughter when they all return 'home'. A former English teacher, reporter/editor, education director for a non-profit organization, and stay at home mom, I retired after a season of substitute teaching at a private academy. Now I enjoy time spent with my grandchildren and family and writing words that seem to pour out of my soul or wandering around the countryside with my camera. Foremost, my faith sustains me as I meander through the empty nest stage of life. My favorite scripture is 1 Thessalonians 5:16-18: “Be joyful always; pray continually; give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.”

  1. I recognized the blueberries right away. We pick them at a nearby farm at the end of May into June. All picked out now…but I have bags of them in the freezer for the year. Amazing garden you have!

    1. I love blueberries! Our bushes are still fairly small, but they do produce enough for us to enjoy, and they are finished now too. I have to admit that the garden is the work of my hubby. He plans, plants and tends. I occasionally help with keeping the weeds at bay and enjoying the tasty produce. He tried watermelons for the first time this year and at last count, there are 25 growing out there. Looks like we’re going to be sharing watermelon with everyone who comes by!
