Recently my brother-in-law experienced the death of the woman he had cared for the past five years. He was committed to her. They married in […]
By Debra Basham, on March 18, 2018 Time has a way of slipping through our fingers. Looking back, we ask where it has gone. Of course, time means nothing at all.
A woman who lived with us for several years had an old cassette with a song by that title. It was so long ago I don’t honestly know who […]

By Debra Basham, on March 3, 2018 There is a hard truth to be told: before spring becomes beautiful, it is plug ugly, nothing but mud and muck.

By Debra Basham, on January 31, 2018 I am blessed to be part of two writers’ groups, and one of the precious gifts of winter for me is that I take more time to write.

By Debra Basham, on January 22, 2018 Each year I enjoy some ritual on my birthday. Yesterday afternoon I still did not know what that was to be.
