Sit down in a comfy rocking chair and feel the breeze. Have a mug of coffee and a tasty pastry. And let’s enjoy real life together. Maybe you want to meet a friend, or be a friend.
I’m Grammye, and I help women wrestle (and win) with ordinary and extraordinary life issues. Together we tackle household management, parenting, grandparenting, and the difficulties that life delivers to our doorstep.
Why don’t you stay a minute, look around, and find some encouragement here.
I’m hoping to find ways to build each other up, make things better.
There’s a reason the blog is here at all: It’s because of the kindness of people over all these years — reaching out to me, offering comfort, wisdom, and answers.
People who invested in my life — who entered my struggles and brought me goodness and hope.
Looking back over all I have received, I just have to pull you in.
So, see if you find something here of value, maybe a story or a household tip. Sometimes I’ll share a link to another site, maybe a little treasure that helped me to the next milepost in the past (or right now).
And thank you, just for being here. Come back soon.
About me:
I’m 67. I’m a follower of Jesus Christ. I’m a woman. I’m American. I live in the South (Hey, y’all). I’m a daughter, a sister, a wife, a mother, and a grandmother.
Laughter and merriment are my companions. But I’m no stranger to difficulty and sadness.
I seek to make every day count with my family and my friends. I want our home to be our safe place.
All those facts make us alike or different. Either way, it’s possible we have a lot to discover together. I hope so.
Join me virtually anytime. (And we’ll have coffee!)
Don’t forget I have an author space on Amazon, as well as a number of books, mostly for children. You can see my books here on the blog (Books By Grammye ). Because,… writing, that’s where I am!
Thank you. For visiting. For taking a few minutes to be part of a community that wants things to be better. That’s what happens here: Things get better.

Wondering about something else, maybe?
What if I share my faith?
I have meaningful friendships with lots of people. When it comes to doctrine, we sometimes find differences.
Please don’t worry. I won’t beat you up over theology. I’m just a humble servant hoping to love people the way Jesus wants me to.
Here’s my list of the important things, just so you know who I am and what I stand for.
