I’ve totally neglected to fight back against the [...]

Well, what do you know? I went outside the other day and found a sky full of clouds and immediately ran inside for my camera! The funny thing was – everything I “saw” involved heads and faces. There were no bodies, no interesting scenes, but perhaps those will come with warmer weather. I’ve decided to [...]

Something weird is going on in my house. At first I just thought I was going crazy or something, but now I’m beginning to suspect “outside forces.” It started a couple of days ago. I woke up and went into the bathroom to wash my face. But, when I looked into the mirror, I got [...]

Okay, so here’s the deal. I was going to write a post for my regular “Five Good Things” series and…I was coming up blank. It’s not that I don’t have good things, but I’ve already written about all the obvious ones like birds singing and good friends and sunrises, etc. And when you’re looking at [...]

I’ve never felt the need for cable TV, a fact which I think some of my friends find a bit odd, since I often buy entire seasons of certain cable shows on DVD. But, when you weigh the cost of a DVD set against the outrageous monthly rates for cable, which go on forever, I’m [...]

When last I posted I was exhausted from being in pain and walking hunched over for almost a week and being unable to sleep. I was due for an MRI the next day. This picks up where I left off… Tuesday morning I was at the MRI place bright and early for my 7:00 a.m. [...]

I usually schedule my posts two or three days ahead of real-time, which is great in keeping me from feeling any stress to “produce.” But in the present case, you’ve been reading nice, pleasant little pieces in my blog while in real life I’ve been in real trouble, feeling more miserable than I ever imagined [...]
Daylight Stupid Time

Well, I hope you guys are happy! You always push and whine until you get your way and then you thumb your noses at those of us who see things differently. And then, to make things worse, we have to listen to you gloat for almost eight months! Yes, as you’ve probably already guessed, it’s [...]

What better time than the weekend to catch up on various updates, thoughts and ideas? Today’s post will contain nothing earthshaking, just me being me. With that said, here goes: 1) I often wonder if anyone in the world is capable of using super glue without getting it on themselves. This has been a curse [...]
