Ghost Rider in the Sky

Another sad day for us in my neck of the woods. After his wife, Pat, passed away last week, prolific western author and mentor, Dusty Richards, has joined Pat this day.

He reminded me so much of my father--same western hat, western shirt, western boots--everything. Every time I saw Dusty, it was like meeting my father again (who passed away on Christmas Day in 2006).

May the sun be always at his back, a hat always on his head, and his wife always at his side. We'll miss you both.

"Catching a Break"

This year has not started out well, to say the least. For several seasons, I have been hit with trauma after trauma, tragedy after tragedy, and this month has started out exactly the same. Sigh...

I practice gratitude, and it helps me get through the worst of it, but I would really like to catch a break for once and have no drama disrupting my life.

Very short blog. Time to get back to editing and wishing life were better.
