Taking Advantage of the Change in Weather
Rumbling, rolling, booming,... It's a great gray day...no sunshine...no blue sky...but it is a whole lot cooler. Everything outside is wet, but I'm dry and comfy inside and the hot coffee is great. I have warm fuzzy plaid PJ's on and a sweatshirt and I'm still chilly. This is a good day to bake...

What's That?
I have the most darling Great-Grandchildren ever. There are four of them between the ages of eighteen months and eleven years of age, all girls. My Missouri daughter-in-law is the grandmother of two of them, and my Florida daughter-in-law is grandmother to the two youngest. My Florida DIL and I...

The Big Day -- Not!
Yep! Another year older in just a little over half an hour. By April I will have been a part of Blogit for twenty years. Doesn't that just blow your mind...It does mine. I have wasted many hours trying to think of something to write and trying to make whatever I write be interesting to others....

Staying Inside...(To The Tune of Staying Alive)
Ah, Ah, Ah, Staying Inside, Staying Inside... Ah, Ah, Ah, Staying Inside. That's what I do these days when the weather is humid and the temp is over 100 degrees. I don't like perspiration dripping off of the end of my nose or my clothes sticking to my body. But, at least in this day and age I have...

Only 200 Steps
A little exercise can go a long way when the sun is shining brightly and the temperature is 86 degrees and on its way up to 99 degrees. There was a day when that would not have bothered me, but..... I used to jog at that degree, but now staying inside in the a/c with a good book is my style....

The Little Blogger Who Could
"I think I can. I think I can. I think I can." chug-chug-chug-chug "I think I can. I think I can. I think I can. I think I can." chug-chug-chug-chug "---86 is an awful lot of years."

Words & Writing
Whirling, twirling on timeless pages of the mind, they danced about here and there playing games and having fun, making rhymes or not, then disappearing e'er the thought was done returning to flit and fly or cling to thoughts as if laughing at my inept expertise at weaving poetry. But then I had the...

Where Did It Go?
An old photo from my picture box of long ago, and a new photo of the same person on Facebook, I hold together side to side, but, no, I cannot tell it is the same person. Too many years have passed. Too much water under the bridge of time. And, I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that the same...

A Moment's Pause and Reflection
The wildness of the place is a drawing card for anyone who loves nature. According to city code, only the front and sides seen from the street have to be kept mowed. The backyard slants downward to a stream and then back up a hill on the other side. No, I don't want to live here, but it is good for...
