Shattered Pot…Made New

March 21, 2022March 25, 2022 ~ Laurie Meek Watkins ~ 9 Comments

Slowing down a minute to drop this note. In the future I’ll be sharing more about how this Type A “cracked pot” became shattered, but...for today... I want to let you know how I have the power to become new...even at the old age of 65! First...a question: ✅ Is there something missing in your … Continue reading Shattered Pot…Made New

Cheering You On

February 25, 2022 ~ Laurie Meek Watkins ~ 7 Comments

I’ve always been a performer, but not a cheerleader. I was a short little nerdy girl in high school so I gravitated to the stage...not the cheer squad. . I guess I’m a cheerleader at heart, however.   Years ago, when I created my one-woman show, “Confessions of a Type A Lady,” I incorporated a … Continue reading Cheering You On

Heads Bowed…Harvest Time

September 26, 2021October 8, 2021 ~ Laurie Meek Watkins ~ 2 Comments

I’ve love watching the corn. Corn grew steady and tall, like soldiers guarding country roads.   The beautiful green stalks could be a hideout.  Once, I climbed in.  Nestled there in the whispering row, I found peace. I loved the corn and the tall shelter it provided.   But now, it’s harvest time.  The harvesters … Continue reading Heads Bowed…Harvest Time

Well Done, Good and Faithful Servant

September 13, 2021September 15, 2021 ~ Laurie Meek Watkins ~ 2 Comments

I almost didn’t go. After all, why waste the gas? Besides....I’m sick of crying. Who goes to a cemetery on Labor Day, for goodness sake? I’ll admit I was feeling down. I’ve lost some good friends lately. I was alone at home on a family weekend and life seemed...well, unfair. I made myself go. It’s … Continue reading Well Done, Good and Faithful Servant

Swing

March 11, 2021March 11, 2021 ~ Laurie Meek Watkins ~ 2 Comments

My Aunt Betty had the tallest swing I’d ever seen in my life.  Of course, when I first saw her swing, my life had not been lived more than five years. My swing experience was limited.The swing’s tall iron frame loomed high above Uncle Fred’s garage.  I can still see the thick oval chain links … Continue reading Swing

Shelter

February 21, 2021February 21, 2021 ~ Laurie Meek Watkins ~ Leave a comment

Sorry I haven’t posted in a while.  I got shipwrecked on an island.  I don’t want to be rescued. I’m hiding out here. Truly.  No cars. No trucks. Only my bike....and a shark.  But that’s a different article and I’m getting ahead of myself.  I thought I’d check in with you.  I’m learning some good … Continue reading Shelter

OK...I admit it.  Today is my 63rd birthday.                                     This morning I took one look at myself in the mirror and groaned. Truth be told, I was feeling            a little sorry       … Continue reading The Big Three At 63…or…Advice to the 63 Year Old ME

Canceling my Pity Party

August 4, 2019August 4, 2019 ~ Laurie Meek Watkins ~ 4 Comments

I’m sad! I don’t think she likes me. Drat! I am so stupid! I made a mistake. Poop! I forgot where I put my keys. Darn! I think I’m gaining weight. Sigh! He didn’t even notice all the work I did.

Tips to Deal With Life’s Floods

July 17, 2019July 17, 2019 ~ Laurie Meek Watkins ~ 21 Comments

My Sunday hike by the flooding Mississippi got me thinking.  We all experience floods in our lives:  unexpected situations which sweep through our lives, uprooting routine and confusing our plans.  Sometimes all we can do is hold on, tread water... and pray. We can be flooded with fear, flooded with pain, even flooded with joy. … Continue reading Tips to Deal With Life’s Floods
