Sonnet #17
When I last wrote for this journal, I was in angst regarding my family's trip to Greece. My husband wrote me an email that same day that said simply, "I want you to go on the trip. I love you." My eyes are moist from watching a movie I haven't had nerve to watch for two years, Patch Adams. It is...

And After a Fitful Night . . .
No one is talking. This is odd. If your brother-in-law just told you he's treating you to a trip from Istanbul to Athens, but just you because you are his wife's sister (i.e., leave your husband at home) places you've wanted to visit your whole life, it's on your top ten list of things to do before...

Hours of Operation
There is an establishment we sometimes do business with -- a retail camera equipment store, selling used and new equipment. Jay has even rented camera lenses he would need on occasion. They do photo processing, and sell just about everything you can imagine connected with photography. It's run out...

I'd rather go with you........
I find myself in the veritable position of being between a rock and a hard place. I have been given a trip of a lifetime, at least for this farm girl from Kansas -- a fabulous cruise of the Mediterranean starting in Istanbul and concluding eleven days later in Athens. It's my dream trip of a...

Jay started out great celebrating our 30th Anniversary. He bought me flowers, a sweet card, even perfume by Chanel, "Chance." Kaching! Deposits were being made in the love bank to be sure. A call from my sister announcing that her husband was gifting her brother and sisters to a two-week cruise of...

Being a Horse's Patooti
RAILROADS Does the statement, "We've always done it like that" ring any bells? Read this to the end; you'll love it!! The US standard railroad gauge (distance between the rails) is 4 feet, 8.5 inches. That's an exceedingly odd number. Why was that gauge used? Because that's the way they built them...

Creepy
Here's MY strange story about Reunion.com. I got 38 hits or views to my profile in one day, March 28, and for what reason I had not a clue. Not until today, that is. Mostly men from all over the country, various ages, in various committed relationships, so why ME all of a sudden? There is no "dating...
