Loblolly Night
I made myself go two places today, places that I put off as long as I can. Where Son and I live is a nice place, and I like it a lot, and have no desire to move. But, the one thing I do not like about this apartment complex is that I do not have laundry facilities in our living space. There are two...

Instead, Not In Addition To
Everybody I know seems to be doing Superfood Smoothies these days (even me) to make up for years of junk food, excess weight, lack of exercise, and age creeping up faster than one would desire. I don't think it is ever too late to begin the intake of fresh veggies, leafy greens, seeds and nuts,...

Infected By Fear?
If the secret surveillance of all my communications are being carried on by the NSA or the justice department of the U.S. government, someone is going to be awfully bored with what they find. I suppose that I am one of the over-280 million U.S. citizens in the NSA databases. Surely I am one of the...

Day Day
It's been a long day. It started out when the clock struck twelve midnight as D-1. By now I'm afraid it's already D-one hour and twenty minutes. I'm talking D-Day, or rather the remembrance of it. June 6, 1944 when Allied troops landed on the beaches of Normandy during World War II. I was a little...

I'm Not That Person Anymore
“There is nothing like returning to a place that remains unchanged to find the ways in which you yourself have altered.” ~ Nelson Mandela I went back today, back in time, back to February of 2004. I traveled in my thoughts, in my memories, in my emotions to that far-away time.... After spending some...

Sun Roof In The Rain
I do like my plain old little maroon colored Subaru Impreza and the way it just keeps chugging along high and dry. It is stained with bird poop because I park under a tree, and the windshield is pretty awful because I keep forgetting to fill the windshield washer tank, but all the rain is...

After The Storm
As everyone knows, at least those who have now and then watched the movie, "The Wizard of Oz ", Kansas, being the main Tornado Alley of the Midwest is prone to storms. Great niece, who lives in the middle of nowhere in Kansas with her hubby and two little ones, took this wonderful picture yesterday,...

Mid Rats
It seems like one or the other of us is always raiding the kitchen at midnight for anything that might be around to eat. It is our last meal of the day, so neither of us make it a very big meal. Tonight it was crackers and smoked cheese and an apple for me. For Son #1 it was a couple of left over...

Five Men And A Lady
It was like a bad dream. Men's voices, in her bedroom, speaking to her and to each other. For her it was very upsetting, but I couldn't help but roll around with laughter. Today was a beautiful, but physically tiring day for me. I had been awake all night long (as usual) but with it being the...

The Least Bawdy
There was a maid from Brazil Who failed to take “the pill”. Her William? He left. The maid was bereft, For she was left holding the “Bill”. One never knows what's going to be going on here in the middle of the night since both Son #1 and I have always been nocturnal, graveyard shift people, that...
