To Sleep, Perhaps to Dream!

I had to take my five year old grandson to the walk-in clinic this morning after he ran a 102 degree fever lasting over 30+ hours. The fever didn't respond well to ibuprofen or to a nice hot bath so we took him in. He has a "nice" case of pneumonia and was given a breathing treatment and sent home... Sign in to see full entry.

What A Day In The Neighborhood!

It was a early spring time day here with temps hitting about 52 or so. If they can be trusted, the weather forecast says it will be 64 or so this Saturday. We can use it to help soak up some of the standing water from all of the melting snow. We weren't the only ones enjoying the warmer weather. I... Sign in to see full entry.

Michigan In Ice!

They say small things amuse small minds so you can understand I snapped the photo below. It has been in the mid 40's here the past couple days, a welcome change to the temps below zero the week before. I had to go into town and was tip toeing through the mud puddles and happened to look down to see... Sign in to see full entry.

Things I've Learned

This isn't mine but after the last year or so, I can attest that it is true. I've learned that the best classroom in the world is at the feet of an elderly person. I've learned that when you're in love, it shows. I've learned that just one person saying to me, 'You've made my day!' makes my day.... Sign in to see full entry.

Thank you

Thanks to all that have sent me their well wishes. They have increased my digixon and several other meds. I have several doctor appointments this week. I'm trying not to do things that cause it to get started. For those that have never had this problem (A-Fib), imagine a big ol' catfish flopping... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm Back... for a while Anyway

A few days ago, I went into another run of A-fib, a condition where the top part of your heart starts beating much faster than the top half, essentially pumping no blood, and I formed a blood clot that hit my brain and I passed out. I was just released from the hospital. I am fortunate in the fact I... Sign in to see full entry.

Calm and Clear

A calm day so far. It is almost quiet here and I was able to put about 4500 words into another story I haven't started posting yet. I want to pair it up with "Say Hello To Dave!" as part of my murders' row series I want to do. These two stories will comprise a single book and the next one will... Sign in to see full entry.

A Plagiarist? Not Me!

I found a new subscription tool that helps me make sure that my writing is all mine and not something my brain has recalled from something I read or heard on television. I pasted in a 5000 word section of a story I have posted here on Blogit and to my horror, it said that roughly 20% of it was... Sign in to see full entry.
