It’s always good to have goals, right? Last week my goal was to recover enough so that I could make it to an event on Saturday night in Tryon. I had gotten tickets months ago for a Sean of the South event and instead of Continue reading →

Inconvenienced

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 12 Comments/ 478

Today I was just thinking about inconveniences. You know –those pesky things that pop up now and then that irritate and annoy. On a scale of 1 to 10 ( fresh in my mind from my recent ER visits) the level of inconvenience can be Continue reading →

Life Interrupted

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 16 Comments/ 493

Sometimes things roll along just as planned and then other times — poof—life takes a turn and you have to adjust. I had to make a few adjustments this past week and while it was unexpected, all is well. If anyone noticed I took an Continue reading →

Aussie Lingo, Anyone?

Beth Ann Chiles/ Life stories, Travel/ 7 Comments/ 525

A repost because frankly I am plum worn out from the AAUW Book Sale. Come back next week for some new musings. When Chris and I lived in Australia we found a lot of words didn’t mean quite the same as they did in the Continue reading →

Love Comes in Many Forms

Beth Ann Chiles/ Animals/ 9 Comments/ 675

Love and comfort can come in a million or more ways. It can be a simple hug.  Holding a hand of someone.  Even just a look can convey a sense of love and comfort to someone at times. But the love of a pet is Continue reading →

Another Thrift Store Find on Teapot Tuesday

Beth Ann Chiles/ Tea and Teapots/ 8 Comments/ 542

Thrift stores are some of THE best places to find teapots for my collection.  I have a difficult time paying full price for teapots when there are so many out there that people are donating to thrift stores. I found this lovely teapot at the Continue reading →
