As I reach the end of my years, I find I have a lot of good information stored up in this old decrepit mind of mine. If I don't write it all down, it may vanish and no one will have the advantage of my thoughts. This is why this blog exists. I love the Lord, Jesus with all my heart and soul. I know I'm undeserving of all He's done for me, but I also know that His love is beyond my comprehension. I've always wanted to write. I never kept diaries, but tucked my thoughts in my head for future reference. I use them now in creating stories, plays, poetry and my blog. I continue to learn every day. I believe the compilation of our time spent with God will have huge affect on the way we live. I know I'm a sinner and I need a Savior. I have One through Jesus, Christ. My book, "Stages - a memoir," is about the seven stages of life from the perspective of a woman. It addresses all the things girls and women go through in life as they travel it with Jesus, and it is available on Amazon.com.

SURE SIGNS OF SPRING
Winter simply wants to hang on this year. We’re blessed to have help shoveling our way out. It’s not a pretty sight seeing to octogenarians outside in below zero weather, trying to push snow around. In my part of the … Continue reading
TO SLEEP PERCHANCE TO DREAM
ART & POETRY BY PAUL & KATHY BOECHER© When we search for distant places, When we walk uncharted lands, Our hearts are filled with wonder, Our minds hold no demands. A trail that leads to winter, A path beside the … Continue reading
THEATRICALIZING THURSDAY
My word for the day is “Theatricalizing.” This is what I do. I am a theatricalizer – or a Thespian – a playwright -a performer – an actor – and old to boot. This has been my chosen profession for … Continue reading
I’M A THEATRE JUNKIE
I think it began when I was three. Mother enrolled me in ballet, tap, jazz and baton lessons – thinking I would someday become the next Shirley Temple. I learned to step, shuffle, ball and change before I knew my … Continue reading
RETIREMENT FALLACIES
I actually didn’t retire until I was 68 – that is, I didn’t apply for Social Security until that time. I continued to work until I turned 74. We decided it was time to downsize and moved into a house … Continue reading
MEMORABLE PLACES – A GALLERY
A quiet town nestled into the bluffs lining the river – a popular city site of a former flour mill – the corner cafe in a tiny town hidden amongst the trees – a bakery, a lighthouse, a place for … Continue reading
PIECES OF A PUZZLE
In this next series of art work by Paul Boecher, I’m focusing in on some of the details of one painting and how they all come together to form a completed painting. Paul will tell you that he never feels … Continue reading
FIRST RECORDING SESSION
A couple years ago, I started teaching some senior acting classes. This led to a core group of myself and two others, venturing into a totally different world for us. The three of us began a collaboration on a series … Continue reading
TELL YOUR STORY
For most of us, we don’t think there is anything worth writing about in our own story. However, God has created each of us with a uniqueness that can’t be denied. Each story is important. Each life has merit and … Continue reading
A LITTLE MORE OFF THE TOP

ONCE UPON A TIME … THE FACE OF GOD
Never before in the history of time had the sky been so clear. Only an occasional cloud hung there as a reminder. Rain came when the soil dried – only when necessary. It was so clear, some thought they could … Continue reading
GIVING UP OR GIVING IN?
Days grow into weeks and weeks into months. Some of those days are filled with optimism while others bring nothing but one bad thing after another. The amount of time and energy we spend on those bad days is really … Continue reading
THE MAGIC OF THE THEATRICAL
It seems a lifetime ago when the movie theatres were still open – when you could take in a movie for $5 on a Tuesday – when you could escape to another place, time or fill a couple hours with … Continue reading
A DAY FOR THE ARTS
Yesterday was a gorgeous day in Minnesota. The sun was casting a golden glow everywhere and surprisingly there were few mosquitoes (our state bird.) There was no humidity, the flies and gnats were nowhere to be seen. Temperatures were in … Continue reading
THE MAGIC OF THEATRE
The week after Easter, my cast of 24 children will get on stage and present THE MAD ADVENTURES OF MR. TOAD. Some magic is occurring right before our eyes. The kids memorize lines, learn songs and dances and they are … Continue reading
OPEN HEART SURGERY
Returning down memory lane, my husband had many interesting moments when he was in the advertising business. He did almost everything, from a trip deep into the Wind River Mountains on horseback to flying into a remote lake in Alaska … Continue reading
DAY IN THE LIFE OF AN ARTIST

RANDOM THOUGHT – DREAMS
I wonder where dreams come from. Are they a cacophony of our daily lives or simply stirrings in the heart of our imagination? Do they serve a purpose? When ever a creative person dreams, he’s taking all those elements … Continue reading
