People in Our Path: Online Dating

March 7, 2021 / conniesedona317 / 18 Comments

When I first realized that I would be out on the 'dating scene,' going through a divorce at sixty-five years old, I had no idea that would occur during a pandemic. When I thought about dating, I remembered back to when I last went out at twenty-two, before I was engaged to my future husband. … Continue reading People in Our Path: Online Dating

Like No One’s Watching

January 17, 2021 / conniesedona317 / 11 Comments

This time of year, I remember back to those days of working as a middle school nurse. The long weekend for the Martin Luther King Holiday was followed by the dreaded stretch through gray winter to spring break. I often found myself daydreaming about summer when I'd go on my solo journey. I started taking … Continue reading Like No One’s Watching

Saturday Morning in Paris

September 20, 2020 / conniesedona317 / 10 Comments

The chilly breeze yesterday morning, walking in my neighborhood with the tree limbs moving about with leaves edging into fall, reminded me of three years ago in Paris. My husband and I'd flown into Charles de Gaulle Airport early on Thursday morning for a trip that would celebrate my retirement from school nursing. Photo by … Continue reading Saturday Morning in Paris

Gathering Energy for the Journey

June 14, 2020 / conniesedona317 / 6 Comments

This week I continued to navigate my life through The Gap--a period between the Ending of my life as I knew it and the Beginning that awaits. In looking at that stream pictured in last week's blog, I think that perhaps I need to spend some time sitting on one of those rocks. Crossing over … Continue reading Gathering Energy for the Journey

Released from Quarantine: Return to Joy

May 24, 2020 / conniesedona317 / 4 Comments

Last week I was able to come out of my fourteen-day quarantine that kept me from caring for my grandson, Baker. It resulted from being in the nursing home with my mother the last two days of her life. While she didn't have COVID-19, nor did any other residents, my son and daughter-in-law felt it … Continue reading Released from Quarantine: Return to Joy

Happy 200th Post!

April 26, 2020 / conniesedona317 / 8 Comments

This is my 200th post on this blog. I started in May of 2017 after I returned home from the Blue Ridge Mountains Christian Writers' Conference. There, I pitched my memoir to agents and attended sessions on marketing my work. What everyone in the writing world suggested was having a blog so you could provide … Continue reading Happy 200th Post!

Rays of Hope

August 31, 2019 / conniesedona317 / 13 Comments

It’s been four months since I learned my marriage would be ending. I look back on all the initial steps through each phase of the grief process. I know that grief is not ‘one and done’ that when we lose something or someone of importance, we work through that for a long time. While you … Continue reading Rays of Hope

Dolphin Morning: Animals in Our Path

May 18, 2019 / conniesedona317 / 11 Comments

This first full day of my Outer Banks journey, I headed to the Manteo waterfront for an 8:30 a.m. Dolphin Cruise with Captain Johnny. My sister, Peggy gave it to me for my birthday back in March. She turned sixty the same month and likes gifts that offer the recipient a memorable experience; get out … Continue reading Dolphin Morning: Animals in Our Path

Planning Your Solo Journey: 3 Tips

February 16, 2019 / conniesedona317 / 7 Comments

Now that it’s mid-February, I’m well into daydreaming about where I’m going on my Solo Journey this year. I started at the end of December, when the Christmas tree was down and the holiday busyness was transitioning to the quiet gray days of January. I was feeling that pull to strike out on my own. … Continue reading Planning Your Solo Journey: 3 Tips

Solo Journey: Dream Destination

November 3, 2018 / conniesedona317 / 8 Comments

In last week’s blog post, I told about how a Literary Agent set me on a Solo Journey of Indie Publishing. I knew my dream destination—publication of my memoir, but I felt hesitant to take the first step forward. Like when I approach my yearly solo journeys-- the destination is determined but there is uncertainty … Continue reading Solo Journey: Dream Destination
