There’s always a few…

I am temporarily staying with my relatives on a lakefront.  The water is wonderful – it is calming and relaxing.  There’s a dock in the front and a small beach to the side.
Well, the lake is wonderful during the week – there’s less yahoos on it.  Yesterday, I watched speeding boats race one way then [...]

In the news

Farrah Fawcett and Michael Jackson were stars during my lifetime.  The first time I noticed Farrah was on Charlie’s Angels – a look- at- how-scantily- I- am- dressed- when- I- chase- this -bad-guy  show.  Beautiful women in high heels, being told what to do by an unknown man with a buffoon as a “middle manager.”  [...]

Missed Deadliest Catch

I missed Locked Out – the last episode I saw had Phil out in the water with ice closing in.  I have to catch a repeat to find out what happened.  I hate it when I miss the next episode.
The labeling of the different seasons and shows are confusing on Discovery.  They could list the [...]

Today, I got away to a Borders store in Athens.  I was getting jittery about not having my books around.  I’d been to the Athens Borders before, so I grabbed a peach fruita and settled in with some great magazines and a book I’d [...]

Kitchens

the wonderful granite…sigh.
I am finding that when I look at houses online – I look at the kitchen.  It’s not that I am a great cook – Mike is better than I am.  It’s that I want it to be functional but I want it to look warm and inviting.  I guess that comes from [...]

It’s Official

 I am 63 and living in someone’s basement. All my stuff is in storage and I am relying on the “kindness of strangers.”
OK, I am being dramatic. We are staying in the lower level of a wonderful condo on a lake in Georgia. The screened porch opens out to a dock and ducks and geese [...]

A new way to spend the day

drawing:  I found a blog where this guydraws characters from tv shows – I love his drawing of Sawyer – with glasses, a book and a beer.
It rained all day today.  It was gray when I got up this morning.  It started raining and off and on all day, it went from a slight drizzle to a [...]

Out of the grinder

Driving from New Mexico to Georgia is an adventure.  The road becomes your only item of your attention = plus the trucks and the idiot drivers who think it’s cool to come up on your bumper doing around 90 and swing at the last minute into the other lane to pass you.  You really don’t [...]
