Bell Ringing Christmas Cheer ~ ~ ~

Are the rest of you caught up in the hectic frenzy -- feeling as if the Christmas train is coming down the tracks, bearing down upon you full speed as you rush to finish up with the shopping, letter writing, card sending, partying....????? I've been sort of in that situation over the past week, plus... Sign in to see full entry.

What Must the Blogit gods Think of All This Madness and Mayhem

here in Blogit land? Do they chortle? Do they snicker? Do they ponder with furrowed brow the comings and goings of the Blogit earth dwellers? Do they scratch their heads in amazement? Do they even care? Perhaps they swizzle about the realm of blogits with secret nom de plumes (pardon any frenchy... Sign in to see full entry.

One Bad Apple Can Spoil the WHOLE Bag . . . . .

Twice this fall I bought a huge bag of apples at the farmer's market for apple sauce and eating. The first bag gradually disappeared, the more apple sauce I made (it freezes well). The second bag took longer to disappear, and every now and then I would look for spoiling apples, of which there were... Sign in to see full entry.

Better For God to Pass Judgment on This Issue – Ya Don’t Want MINE.

I’m on a rant. Or is that a roll? Either way, I’m still blocked from a certain blogger’s blogs thanks to one very mild comment. I meandered over to her religion blog today and read quite a lovely post written on Christianity, her relationship with Christ and with other people. The writer sounded... Sign in to see full entry.

For Crying OUT LOUD! What Have I Done NOW????? Blanche? Help!

Blogit friends, I need some help here. Either I'm having a clueless blonde moment, or my friend Blanche has gotten a little carried away in her reading between the lines and making wild assumptions. This is my first post in 10 days. I've been busy with life, work, family, cello practice, etc. In... Sign in to see full entry.

Precious Memories, How They Linger, How They Ever Flood My Soul . . . .

There are moments in time I wish I could capture and re-wind whenever I need a shot in the arm with joy juice or the like. Last evening was one of those. For one thing, it helped this year that no one was upchucking. Some of you may recall a blog I wrote last Thanksgiving about our family... Sign in to see full entry.

Gray Days and Quiet Times

Another NP and I had an interesting chat the other day. She told me of an encounter she had with a patient, a drug seeking woman who knew her meds and how to work the system. She was seen at the hospital for treatment of abdominal pain. The only med that worked was Dilaudid. For those of you in the... Sign in to see full entry.

The ONE Person Who Did NOT Get MY Vote!

Yup, I voted too. It took all of 45 minutes, waiting in line, shifting position from one foot to the other. But the wait was worth it. All the volunteers except one appeared to be in the 80+ age range and by the time I went through were looking pretty fatigued. They had been there since 0600. Their... Sign in to see full entry.

What???????? You're Puting ME On Steroids? Aren't Those BAD?????????????

It happens almost every day. People come to the office with cold symptoms -- runny nose, fever, cough, scratchy throat, etc. They've suffered for two days and darn it, want to feel better NOW. So they come in expecting the miracle antibiotic. Every day I repeat the same spiel about antibiotic... Sign in to see full entry.

It Finally Gave Up The Ghost . . . .

That big old, graceful tree limb in my neighbor's back yard died today with a mighty crack! I was mowing the lawn (errrr, rather, using the lawn mower to sweep up all my bazillion leaves) when over the noise of the mower I heard a loud pop! and saw the cables overhead sizzling and snapping before...
