Going for a Sunday Drive

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

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...

Doing Stuff

Doing Stuff

I’m a little late with my blog this week. I don’t have an excuse, just that I have been busy, doing “stuff,” and I’m not sure what it is. When I worked full time, I didn’t have trouble getting...

An Adventuresome Spirit

An Adventuresome Spirit

This week I had the opportunity to do two things. I love to write and feel that no day should pass without putting a few words on a paper. Sometimes they are useful, other times not so much, but...

Who Me?

A True Story

A True Story

Wrinkly Bits I was sitting here, minding my own business, watching a baseball game, Cardinals vs somebody. I am a Cardinals fan, and the score was 1-0, Cardinals, so I thought it was a good time to...

I’ll Never Tell

A Heck of a Week

It’s been a heck of a week, and I thought I would walk you through some of what I’ve been doing for the last few days. Shoulder surgery is in the rearview mirror, but there is a second part of any...
