NOTHIN' SAYS LOVIN' LIKE SOMETHIN' FROM THE OVEN...
Due to my shoulder injury, I’m having a hard time typing for very long……so I’m going to use that as an excuse to re-post last year’s Christmas post instead of coming up with a new one…..actually, I don’t have a lot of anything new to add. Wow! A whole year and it just seems like yesterday I was...

SLIP SLIDIN' AWAY...SOCIETY IS CHANGING...A RANT!
Time for a rant. This morning I heard an ad on TV as I was getting dressed….it was for some truck, I was too struck by something the character in it said right off the bat that I didn’t note the make……anyway, the guy says something about the truck was probably designed by the guys he cheated off of...

FEARLESS HEART
One of my favorite cd's is Steve Earle's "Live from Austin, Texas", recorded in 1986 when he did "Austin City Limits."

I always enjoy Pat_B’s posts…..and she’s got another great one up today, about the credit card trap so many of us get caught up in. I say “us” because a couple of times in my life I was caught in it big time….I’m talking BIG time. And, right now, my daughter and her husband are really struggling to...
