One Small Gesture
I have several winter rituals, most of which are shared by many others. For instance, the Christmas tree goes up on December 1st. When Pam and I lived in places where it was possible, that would include an early start, walking through the designated area in the forest to harvest a tree.

Giving Thanks in 2025. Top Story - November 2025.
My Thanksgiving began at 3:44 AM. Not because there were things to prepare for dinner, etc. but because one of my dogs needed desperately to go outside. I got out of our cozy, warm bed, slipped my jeans and shoes on and out we went into the 28-degree morning.

It's Beautiful Here
She's out there, somewhere. I tell myself I had no choice, but the remorse is too hard to bear. Perhaps it wouldn't have been as catastrophic as I thought. Maybe there was another way to avoid being found out. Though my mind reels and my heart aches, I know there was no alternative.

Summer Leaves by S. E. Holz. Top Story - November 2025.
I'm completely embarrassed, but delighted to share my thoughts on this incredible collection from Ms. Holz, A.K.A. by Vocalites as L.C. Shäfer. Embarrassed, because I'm very, very late in writing this. Delighted, because I had the privilege of reading this wonderful collection and giving you my honest opinion of its contents.
