  • What’s Wrong with Me?

    This is where I left off. Every day I wonder, “what’s wrong with me?” I get up in the morning, turn on Today Show, get coffee and start playing games on my iPad. I’m into the coloring and I’ll color up to three pictures, then switch to Spider Solitaire until I win, and then Mahjong.…

  • Newest Bargains

    There was an estate sale in our neighborhood and Pete was nice enough to let me know and take me. Most of the stuff was gone but I did get a pretty blue decorative bottle that I didn’t take a picture of for a dollar. As we were leaving I asked about outdoor stuff and…

  • Wedding Weekend

    Last weekend we made a quick trip to Sparta, New Jersey for Pete’s nephew John’s wedding. We left Friday morning at 9:30 and got there around 4:30. I hate that drive. Luckily I was able to read. The rehearsal dinner was at 5 and left us little time to get ready. The whole family was…

  • September 11, 2026

    September 11, 2026

    Today is the 25th anniversary of the terrorist attacks on New York, the Pentagon and the heroes who crashed their plane in Shanksville, Pennsylvania on September 11, 2001. The promise of “we will never forget,” is especially emphasized today because of this significant anniversary. There is continued respect and admiration of all who gave their…

  • Monthly Weigh In – August 2026

    This month my weight is the same as July, 127.2 lbs. That’s good, as long as I’m not gaining. I feel good, my clothes are fitting me better which I love. Isn’t it funny how when you get older you don’t like tight clothes. In my younger years it didn’t matter that you had to…

  • Fires, Floods and Drought

    Fires, Floods and Drought

    Lately I’ve been thinking, (what else is new?) I can’t help it with the headlines constantly reporting of the rising temperatures, fires, floods, and drought. None of this is new. There are out of control wildfires every year throughout the US and Canada, there are even wildfire seasons. The rising temperatures are a fact. Lots…

  • Update on Craft and Biography Issues

    It’s been a long time but I have been working on some of my past issues. In the Category “Crafts,” I have finished two wreaths, one I’m not happy with, it will take minor fixes and then I will post pictures. In total that will make three completed wreaths, which is one more than my…

  • VaCa N. Carolina

    The past week we spent at our home in Wilmington, NC. I was thrilled that Bryan, Laura and Brylee flew down to spend the week with us. It was the first time they saw the house. Of course they loved it! All in all it was a great week spent with Brylee. Bryan had arranged…

  • Emails and Patient Portals

    What do emails and patient portals have in common? I hate them both! Emails – Unfortunately I have three different email addresses; one from the beginning of the internet, one for when I had my garden consulting business, both on AOL. I have my current and most relevant email address in gmail. My Facebook email…

  • Global Meditation

    My daughter informed me that on Saturday, March 21 at one pm there would be a “Global Meditation for Peace, Love and Respect.” Your participation is to take the time to pray or meditate and put forward positive energy throughout the world. I have nothing else to do so I participated. I started with prayer,…
