wordpress…i’m impressed!

go big…or go home!!!…hugmamma.

changing things up…2013

Now that a dusting of snow has settled upon us like a wintry blanket, and holiday memories fade into the background, the time has come to think of new beginnings. Of course some… Read More

Vanishing Point

Reblogged from artful intuition: Our memory is like a shop in the window  of which is exposed now one,  now another photograph of the same person.  And as a rule the most recent… Read More

not for everyone…

Hugmamma’s Mind, Body, and Soul is where I share opinions, thoughts, feelings, helpful hints, recipes, life experiences…all meant to uplift, to give hope, to empathize, and above all, to entertain.  Mine is not a… Read More

weekly photo challenge: create

Furnishing dollhouses was a hobby my daughter and I shared as she was growing up. The first dollhouse was a gift for her which my husband assembled from a kit. We painstakingly finished it off with paint, wallpaper, roofing… Read More

…not for the faint of heart…

My previous post on ad trickery has given rise to this one. After navigating the inroads of the internet, more specifically WordPress, for approximately 2 years I don’t feel as knowing as one… Read More

…a picture’s worth…

…a thousand words, as the saying goes. And I just happened upon a blog which offers photos with captions. Simplicity personified.  Colorspark at http://colorspark79.wordpress.com/about/ . Photography blogs seem the most popular. Images capture… Read More

the oscars…not quite…but almost

honored…and humbled…hugmamma.

“believe anyway”…beautifully written

Wanted to refer you to another blog, one I’ve recently visited with some regularity which I’ve found absolutely delightful, probably because its writer could be my Siamese twin in terms of beliefs, humor, anxieties, compassion… Read More

daily post challenge: talker’s block? writer’s block?

As regular readers of hugmamma’s mind, body, and soul can attest, I’ve never been stricken with “writer’s block.” It’s not something I’d brag about though. I’m probably a prolific writer because I’m also a non-stop talker, when given the opportunity. Some… Read More

365 photo challenge: browse

a trip back in time…to childhood playthings…hugmamma.

weekly photo challenge: mountains

some like their feet in the air…i like mine where they are…on earth…hugmamma.

task-reward…task-reward

My husband’s advice to my blogging addiction is “allocate time and reward myself with blogging.” He, saint that he is, cares not a fig that I haven’t cleaned the bathrooms yet, or pulled out… Read More

addicted…me?…nahhh

It felt really good not to be blogging while I was in the throes of ridding my daughter’s apartment of bedbugs. Well, let’s just say hugmamma’s mind, body, and soul was the furthest thing… Read More

freshly pressed…wordpress lottery

From time to time, I take a gander at WordPress “Freshly Pressed” pages. Like tonight when I happened to see that another blogger had listed FP on her blogroll. The pages seemed endless. I don’t… Read More

  • “the human connection” by ashley montagu and floyd matson

    "Human communication, 'as the saying goes, is a clash of symbols' it covers a multitude of signs. But it is more than media and messages, information and persuasion; it also meets a deeper need and serves a higher purpose. Whether clear or garbled, tumultous or silent, deliberate or fatally inadvertent, communication is the ground of meeting and the foundation of community. It is, in short, the essential human connection."
