This is an interesting observational piece about soul mates. So much is written about finding your soul mate and I must say I agree with this blogger. I've been married for over forty years and we are not soul mates, we are complete opposites, but, somehow it works. Soul Mates Reblogged from 'Stories I've Never… Continue reading Soul Mates

Any death is traumatic, but things were made more difficult because dad had died just three weeks before. In my book The Magic of stories, I include a couple of stories about what… Continue reading Mother Dear

It is what living so far north, on the edge of the loch entails. It is a continuous way of life, a life stretching back a… Continue reading Isolation

Can you think of any scenes where people go to the bathroom? I’m going to be vain and tell you that in my memoir, My Ideal Partner: How I Met, Married, and Cared for the Man I Loved Despite Debilitating Odds, I talk about going to the bathroom a lot. In one scene, I’m making oatmeal, and my husband Bill, totally blind and partially paralyzed by two strokes, is sitting at the kitchen table in his wheelchair. Suddenly, he says, “Oooh, I gotta pee.
