LA Love: They Call Me Magic

April 27, 2022 By Lisa M. Hendey Leave a Comment

Since Daddy died, it feels like I've been away from Los Angeles more than I've been home. On one recent trip, I spent a day of travel binge-watching the new Apple TV+ docuseries They Call Me Magic. A no-holds-barred look at the life of one of LA's brightest stars, Earvin "Magic" Johnson, the … READ MORE about LA Love: They Call Me Magic

On Anger: Heart-Changing Wisdom from Grindelwald

April 25, 2022 By Lisa M. Hendey Leave a Comment

For the past few days, I've been enjoying some family time with my sister, brother-in-law, and nephews. It's a change of pace to come to the midwest and not immediately rush to a nursing home to see one of my parents. With Daddy's funeral and our parents' cemetery interment still a few weeks away, … READ MORE about On Anger: Heart-Changing Wisdom from Grindelwald

Daddy’s Girl

April 22, 2022 By Lisa M. Hendey 11 Comments

It's been quiet around here for the past month. When I logged in today to try to break my silence with just a bit of blogging, tears splashed across my keyboard and I had to again step away for a while. Those of you who journey with me on social media will understand that the death of Daddy, on … READ MORE about Daddy’s Girl

Man of God

March 21, 2022 By Lisa M. Hendey

When I attended a recent screening for the film MAN OF GOD, in theaters nationwide today, I walked in not knowing what to expect. The venue for the event was the beautiful Saint Sophia Greek Orthodox Cathedral in Los Angeles. While only a few miles from my home, this sacred spot was entirely new to … READ MORE about Man of God

"Magic" and Me - what do we have in common? Among other things, we both love LA. I'm taking a look at the recent Apple TV series "They Call Me Magic" but also at the place we both call home.

Grateful to my sister and bestie Erin for recommending “From Scratch” by Tembi Locke.

This book had me alternating between tears and an unshakable craving for pasta! Seriously though, such a great audiobook listen, beautifully written and narrated by Locke. As we near almost a year of being without our beloved mother, I am finally almost able to emotionally handle books that lean heavily into the topic of grief. In journeying with Tembi, I learned so much about my own emotions.

If you’ve read this book I would love to hear from you!

Latest audiobook: “Little Fires Everywhere”. This engrossing story of mothers and daughters and family really left me thinking. I will probably watch the series soon.

Have you read or seen it? Thoughts?

And isn’t the library the best thing ever? Loving my Libby app so much.
