Dory @ Lucky Dorito on Aug 22nd 2010

Since I seem to have been grumpy regarding men in general, and my sweet Mr. Lucky in particular this week, I suppose it’s time for something nice:

Sweet Sunday

Dory @ Lucky Dorito on Aug 15th 2010

This weekend I’ve been with my sister Lena at a Beth Moore conference. It was just us and about eleven THOUSAND other women. And a few brave men. I have read several of her books over the years and been following her blog but I’d never heard her speak before. I really enjoyed it and [...]

I do NOT know how my little babies got to be THIS big. And grown up. Seriously.

Lost and Found

Dory @ Lucky Dorito on Jul 26th 2010

I spent the first quarter of my life lost.
We didn’t grow up in church but as a teen, I attended with different friends. I’d sit there at times and wonder who the preacher was talking to…. surely not ME. I didn’t even belong there! (or so I thought) I tried to stay under the radar, [...]

I’m not a steel magnolia

Dory @ Lucky Dorito on Jul 18th 2010

Every time my sweet friend Shannon and I plan a visit together, we spend weeks counting down the days until it’s time. So excited to be together, even if only for a brief time. Of course, since our daughters enjoy being together also, that makes it so much more fun!
Sadly, as with any long anticipated [...]

Little blast from the past

Dory @ Lucky Dorito on Jun 22nd 2010

Junior – Senior Prom 1985
You can tell by the big hair that this is from the mid-80’s huh? I am not in this photograph because I graduated in 1984 but…. that cutie pie on the far right is none other than my darling husband, Mr. Lucky. Just in front of him, in the white dress [...]

My Wish

Dory @ Lucky Dorito on Jun 18th 2010

This song was played at my friends’ double funeral…. I haven’t been able to get it out of my head:

It is definitely my wish for Angie and David’s children.

Saying Goodbye

Dory @ Lucky Dorito on Jun 16th 2010

Of all the hundreds of pictures I have of Angie and myself over the years, this is the only one on my laptop:

Taken in Miami, November 1990
Saying “Goodbye” to you is going to be soooo hard.
But, I know in my heart of hearts,
it’s not really “goodbye”….
It’s more of a “See you later, dear friend”
because I [...]

Our Loss is Heaven’s gain

Dory @ Lucky Dorito on Jun 15th 2010

I’ve sat here, looking at this blank page for hours.
I have so many words running around in my head but they seem to be struggling to bubble out right now.
It’s unusual for me to be at a loss for words, huh? But I have a good reason:  On Saturday, June 12th…. a sweet and precious [...]

Before and After

Dory @ Lucky Dorito on Jun 9th 2010

Remember last summer when I went on a wild painting streak and did Luby’s room, (you can read about it here and here)?  I also painted the old mix-matched furniture in Beebo’s room, in anticipation of actually painting her room too. Of course, by the time I finished all the furniture and Luby’s room, I [...]
