The Way It Used to Be

The Way It Used to Be

Today the cowboy and I spent time trying to find a publisher, agent, or other soul who might be interested in reading and publishing the results of our many hours of work. But I think I figured out...

Are You Afraid at Home?

Are You Afraid at Home?

For crying out loud, YES! I had my Medicare exam a few days ago and the doctor recited all the questions that Medicare decided were pertinent for old people, us wrinkly bits. Do you have throw...

Hogwash!

Hogwash!

I read a book a long time ago that had a catch phrase in it: “Love is never having to say you’re sorry.” Hogwash. It sounds romantic, but it was obviously written by a bachelor, with no knowledge of...

I Can See Clearly Now, Mostly

I Can See Clearly Now, Mostly

These days I am walking like a drunken sailor, one of my eye’s cataracts is forever gone, and the other eye is still filled with whatever cataracts are made of, something like soap puddles, making...

Recorded for Training Purposes

Recorded for Training Purposes

This has been an eventful week, and frankly I’m glad it’s over. It was one of those weeks when I had to make a lot of phone calls, you know the ones. You dial the number, it rings, a computer voice...

Brother Tom

Brother Tom

It’s my brother Tom’s birthday and I just want to say: At 80, you are danged old! There was a time, not too long ago, that I didn’t know anyone as old as you, besides Grandma J who was always 80,...

Resolving to…

Resolving to…

It’s the New Year, 2023, which I can hardly believe. And, per usual, I struggled making New Year Resolutions. For crying out loud, I don’t keep them anyway, but Cowboy likes to keep me on the...

A Wintry Blast

A Wintry Blast

Wrinkly Bits A Blog by Cowboy Bob Dang, I can’t figure out what the weatherman is talking about. Siberian express, artic vortex, record low temperatures! What the heck, it’s Montana, it’s winter,...

Things I Love

Things I Love

My blogs seem to run the gamut, often about the frustrations that I, and many readers, have about where we are in life, a little stiff, a little fuzzy, and a little confused by it all. But tonight,...

Busy Times

Busy Times

I was busy all day yesterday, but looking back, I don’t remember a lick of what I did. I can tell you what I didn’t do: I didn’t write my Christmas cards. I didn’t clean our house. I didn’t do the...

Going for a Sunday Drive

Going for a Sunday Drive

It snowed yesterday, maybe six inches, maybe more, but the roads cleared off quickly, so no worry about drifting snow, sliding around, and landing face down in a snowbank. My car has fancy new snow...

Commas and Other Riffraff

Wrinkly Bits A Blog by Gail Cushman Today was book launch day! Yea for me. Number five. It’s called Flash of Time and has a little bit of everything, love, comedy, and travel. Every time I send a...

Cody and Other Critters

Cody and Other Critters

I haven’t had a pet for a long time and forgot how fulfilling they are. I was travelling on a regular basis, and I thought it unfair to a pet to leave for a long time, doling it out to a pet sitter....

My Shoe History

My Shoe History

I don’t know if other people have a shoe history, but I do. I also have a purse history, but that’s a blog for another day. My shoe history started when I was just a wee girl, I mean little. I...

Not Really a Blog

Not Really a Blog

My thermometer is broken. It must be. It says “0 degrees” which means there is no temperature. That can’t be. Oh, my, it is so cold that the temperature has disappeared, along with the green grass,...

The Computer Gods are Cranky

The Computer Gods are Cranky

Wednesday night I wrote this dandy blog, a laugh a minute, and giggled all the way through. I’d read it one more time and sent it off to my full-of-sunshine editor in the morning, who would pull her...

Toothbrushes and Lemons

Toothbrushes and Lemons

As you know, I receive a lot of junk mail, spam, and other useless “stuff” on my computer and my phone. It’s a waste of time to write it and I certainly don’t want to read it, so often wonder who in...

All Done

All Done

A Blog by Gail Cushman I haven’t been around a lot of babies since my youngest grandchild started thinking like a teenager, when she was almost two years old and asked if she could borrow my car,...

Shopping with Cowboy Bob

Shopping with Cowboy Bob

Packing for a long trip was difficult.  We were passing through about twenty states, three time zones, some states that never see winter (Florida and other southern states) and one that never...

Wedding Presents

Wedding Presents

Wrinkly Bits A Blog by Gail Cushman I couldn’t go to sleep last night, too much on my mind, I think. We are packing for another trip, this time to Washington D. C. to take “stuff” to my newly...

Bears and Stars

Bears and Stars

A Blog by Cowboy Bob My gal and I took a boat trip on the Missouri river a short time ago and the beauty was stupendous, cliffs sliding down to the water, towering mountains above us, and all kinds...
