Doing YOU WELL Wednesday #26 and a tribute to my mommy...



an encouragement link up and a tribute to my mother
Hi everyone! Hope you all are enjoying your week so far. Today is a bittersweet day for me. Sweet, because it was six years ago today, July 31st,  that my mother’s doctors sent her to the ER to FINALLY get a diagnosis for what was making her -this once vibrant lady, who loved doing the jitterbug with my dad- weaker and weaker as the days went by. No one knew what was zapping her energy and strength (not her family or her doctors). Bitter, because two days later on August 2nd, six months shy of her 65th birthday and 45th wedding anniversary, we would lose her on the operating table during

an encouragement link up and my aunt Sarah Mae Flemming
So glad to be back…missed you guys!!! Can't believe I didn't blog, didn't check my emails AND stayed off social media for two whole weeks! Time sure flew by. As some of you may know, I took a MUCH NEEDED break from the internet. There’s so much to catch up on and so many blogs I have to visit!  While I was gone, I wasn’t just sitting around with my feet propped up eating bonbons, you know…I was busy! So, on this “Doing YOU WELL Wednesday” link-up, I’d like to share with you what I’ve been up to over the past two weeks.


Some of you might have read my post about my Aunt Kitty(Sarah Mae Flemming) entitled, “A Silent Strength”. If you haven’t, you should…it’s a GREAT history lesson! Well, I’m so proud to say that on Friday, June 28th, on what would have been her 80th birthday, she was honored by the city of Columbia, SC, with a street naming ceremony!
