Four Little Words

Beth Ann Chiles/ Books/ 16 Comments/ 71

I ran across this book on my bookcase and remembered how much I loved it when I read it. It is one of those books that you can pick up time and time again and still really enjoy reading. I thought it was worth re-sharing Continue reading →

You Don’t Smell Right

Beth Ann Chiles/ Animals, Humor/ 7 Comments/ 74

Maksim went to the groomer Tuesday and everything went downhill once we got home. Holly (aka Grumpy Senior Cat) puts up with him and his antics for only so long. But give him a bath and get him all fresh smelling and she was having Continue reading →

Tea Time on Teapot Tuesday

Beth Ann Chiles/ Tea and Teapots/ 6 Comments/ 75

I spied this tea set on a trip to The Biltmore Estate and thought that it was the one that I had in my collection.  After I got home and checked it out I realized how wrong I was. It is not the same one at all Continue reading →

Gotta Leave Room

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 19 Comments/ 131

Yesterday marked the two month anniversary of my mom’s death. Christmas will never look or feel quite the same for me again. Yesterday I shared about our first visit with our grandson and today I am thinking about the circle of life. When Theo was Continue reading →

A Bright Spot in a Pandemic

Beth Ann Chiles/ Family/ 17 Comments/ 187

Everyone told me that I would never be the same after becoming a grandparent. “Everyone” was correct. This past weekend we finally met our adorable grandson, Theo. It took us 3 months, negative covid testing and isolating after the negative test and a great deal Continue reading →

It’s All About Perspective

Beth Ann Chiles/ Devotional, Inspiration, Life stories/ 13 Comments/ 160

“Are you spoiled?” she asked.  The context was the fact that I got to board the airplane before she did—I had “Sky” on my ticket and she had Zone 3.  I laughed it off and denied it but it has stuck with me for a Continue reading →

Teapot Tuesday

Beth Ann Chiles/ Tea and Teapots/ 6 Comments/ 112

Squirrels are in abundance around our house these days. I must admit I am partial to the white squirrels rather than the grey fox squirrels but their antics are always amusing. They have a determination when it comes to bird feeders and I have to Continue reading →

If I Really Wanted to Be Happy…

Beth Ann Chiles/ Writing/ 8 Comments/ 146

A long time ago a sermon I heard really hit me.  To the point of actually taking notes in the margins of the bulletin which does not happen all that often.  I guess I was paying attention.  Or maybe it was because the children’s sermon Continue reading →

I Am Not a Cat

Beth Ann Chiles/ Humor/ 10 Comments/ 178

You have already probably seen it. The YouTube video that has gone viral with the judge who has a cat filter instead of his face. I can’t stop laughing every time I watch it. I have watched it more times than I can tell you. Continue reading →

Old Girls in Low Cotton
by Helen Childress
This short book was one that looked like it would be a fun read. I honestly did not enjoy it all that much---it was a lot of characters bickering and while some of the writing was witty and funny it was not that kind of book that made m...
The Good Girl

The Good Girl
by Mary Kubica
I loved this book! It had my interest from the very first page and was my "airplane" book on a recent trip. Author Mary Kubica created believable and interesting characters that the reader learned to identify with and care about. Mi...

All the Light We Cannot See
by Anthony Doerr
This is quite a book! I had it recommended to me by several people and while I thought it might be a little dark and depressing it made me have a better understanding of what life in this time period was like. The strength of the huma...
An Abundance of Katherines
5 of 5 stars
An Abundance of Katherines
by John Green
Another great book by John Green. I have become a huge fan of John Green since my reading of A Fault in our Stars and this book was another that did not disappoint me at all. It was a story of a child prodigy, a lot of anagrams, and a b...
