Small Talk and The Love Story Continues! (And Another Bad Joke!)

Good morning. We had a series of light rainstorms overnight, making for a soggy backyard this morning. We may get a few more shortly. I've been busy editing the nine short romance stories and novellas. I had intended to post another substantial section of that story here last night, but I received a... Sign in to see full entry.

Was It Prowlers or A Deer? Can Fruits Marry?

Good morning! I'm not sure what had the dogs attention last night, but they were uptight about something going on outside. Some nights, I look out the backdoor and the backyard will have a dozen or more deer. It's crazy, but they will eat the bowls of dog food clean! We typically discourage barking...

Since The First Part of the Story Was Well Liked, Here's the Next Part!

This begins right where the first part left off. V New Hours, Old Fears Chuck didn’t expect company. Saturdays were his laundry-and-grocery rhythm, nothing fancy, just the quiet kind of productive. So when he heard the knock on the front door, followed by the unmistakable jingle of his daughter’s... Sign in to see full entry.

The Story Behind the Story I Posted Last Night & of Course, a Joke

I posted a large chunk of a romance short story I am writing late last night. It's done, I'm just cleaning it up now. I think I have about seven such stories that aren't a rewrite of each other, that are all slowly being moved from the "EDIT" folder to the "EDITED" folder. They typically average...

A Few Thousand Words (2866 actually) From A Romance Story I Am Writing

Opinions are welcome! V PS: I don't use 'bad words' in any of my stories that I don't think absolutely, positively need to be there. Criminals don't often say, "Golly, gee whiz, Bob." I hope ya get my drift! LOL Chuck and Marcia Early Shift, Late Thoughts For the last eleven years, Marcia Finley’s... Sign in to see full entry.

"All By Myself, Just Wanna Be All By Myself" and A Joke You'll "Relish"

Good morning! It looks like a 'cooler day' today, a welcome change, to be sure. We don't have much on the menu today beyond grilling lunch outside in a couple of hours. We have a lot of busy days, but I'm trying to 'drop out' of several activities so we have more time with each other and the dogs.... Sign in to see full entry.

I Wanna Get Zapped! And, Of Course, A Bad Joke

Good morning. It's not cold, but with the high humidity, 74 seems 'cold.' I know that sounds crazy, but it's part of getting used to 95+ temps as 'normal.' I'm about to get ready to see a doctor about having surgery to help me slow down the effects of Parkinson's. There's a surgery they do to 'zap'... Sign in to see full entry.

Remember The Old Song, "Draggin' the Line?" I Was "Mowin' The Yard!"

I always loved that song! "Draggin' The Line!" Good (late) morning! I was up about 7... way too early for me... but as I watched the dogs play outside, I realized I hadn't mowed the grass back there in nearly a month... and the fact that I 'lost track' of our smallest pup in the almost knee-high...

60% & 20/20%...And Another Stupid Joke

Good morning. We will have another day of 98+, but a bit further down the page on the Weather Channel page, it also says, ' there is a possible risk of severe weather today. Wind and hail are possible, but wind is the greatest threat. ' I suspect this is due to the burnout from the first storm to be... Sign in to see full entry.

Should I Buy Another AC Unit? Why Did My Folding Chair Quit?

Good morning. It's gonna be another hot day, with an expected high of 'only' 99. Yesterday, it reached 104, so it might feel cooler... but I doubt it. We are scurrying about, trying to get a few things done before we reach 95. Currently, it is 88, with a light wind. You would think that the grass... Sign in to see full entry.
