This past Saturday was the launch party for the new book, Reflections of Winnsboro, that I helped our Winnsboro historian, Bill Jones, write. We had a grand time, and it was so much fun for me to listen to Bill visit with his many long-time friends who came to help celebrate. We received lots of …
Last weekend the “Generations” art exhibition opened at the Winnsboro Center For the Arts, and I was so thrilled to see an entire wall taken up with art from my family, starting with my mother. I posted a couple of pictures on Monday, and here is another one. The bed dolls were made by my …
Please help me welcome Slim Randles as today’s Wednesday’s Guest with a fun story about Irma the chicken. I tried to have chickens once. Even have a very fine coop in my barn with a roost and a nifty ladder up to the roost. I bought five chickens from my neighbor and thought my grasshopper …
Happy Monday everyone. I hope all the moms out there had a wonderful Mother’s Day Weekend. I certainly did. I had two of my daughters and their husbands with me over the weekend.

First I want to share a picture of the lovely rose I received from one of my cast members Sunday. That was the last performance of our comedy show “Anne-Arky,” and we had a cast party afterward, which was as much fun as the show. Now just a bit of a rant. When I read …
I have another guest post from Slim Randles for today, but first I wanted to share this information I received from the Texas Commission on the Arts. Because so many parts of the country have been affected by the recent storms – and the spring storm season is not over – I thought this would be …
This is going to be a super busy week for me getting ready for the Weekend of Comedy at the Winnsboro Center for the Arts to open on Friday. We have had such a great time rehearsing for the play “Anne-Arky” written by the talented Lindsay Price, and we are eager to entertain folks this …
It is only fitting that, on this day in particular, I continue sharing excerpts from the book I’m writing about my mother. This is her birthday. She died three years ago at age 95, and I still miss her. I am not sure when I will never miss her, or even if that is possible. …
