Going Home
Sunday, November 4th, 2007It’s becoming more common to hear of the family that decides to keep the ashes in the home. Often they have plans to inter the urn or scatter the ashes later. The cremation urn is not going to be hid away in the closet. These families want something beautiful that blends with their decor. […]
TSA Makes An Ash of Itself
Thursday, October 11th, 2007Can’t be too careful I guess. Last week hundreds of travelers were evacuated from the Indianapolis International Airport and had to go through security a second time Friday after an urn with cremated remains was improperly screened, authorities said.
Transportation Security Administration said officials could not locate the passenger to rescreen the urn, so the […]
Tilly’s Story: Bad Day At The Office
Wednesday, September 12th, 2007Yesterday, on 9/11 many were remembering that terrible day. Nobody wants to re-live that morning, although it does help to appreciate my small life, and my non-problems that were unfolding that crispy morning.
Bookmark Tilly’s Story to read when you need to be inspired after a “bad day” at the office.
Smart girl, that Tilly.

Patriot Day
Monday, September 10th, 2007Rainy Randomness
Saturday, August 25th, 2007Collecting ourselves after a whirlwind week! Hummingbirds are hitting the feeders hard, despite the downpour. And you know what that means?

Now, let’s get serious for a minute.
First up, […]

His name is Tank, and the U.S. soldiers have no idea where he came from, nor do they care. All they know is that he’s […]
Where Have All the Smart People Gone?
Thursday, July 5th, 2007Sweet sweaty night at the ballpark. No liquor or fried food touched these lips. That’s a first time experience for this girl. Springfield Cards crushed the Midland Rock Hounds, full house, lots of beautiful explosions, old friends and one incident that ruffled my feathers.
Maybe I’m overreacting, but while waiting in line for at the […]
My Hero, Alex McIlveen
Wednesday, July 4th, 2007Today we’ll salute a patriot, not American but brave none the less.
Alex McIlveen, 45 A HERO cabbie who took on the Glasgow Airport terror suspects told yesterday how he kicked one of the jihadi in the nads so hard that he tore a tendon in his foot.
“The guy in the passenger […]
GW- First in Our Hearts
Wednesday, July 4th, 2007George Washington, 6′3, built, and athletic. Graceful dancer, dignified war hero…but that powdered wig……and maybe not the best dinner partner, very quiet and not much to say. But he was one of the most successful businessmen in Virginia.
He had plenty of slaves to keep the plantation productive, and was said to be a good […]
