Why Get Dressed If You're Not Going Out?...

.....And you're not having company, and your PJ's are warm and cozy and comfy. And. it is snowing outside, white everywhere, the coffee pot is going, the TV is on, the computer is handy and working, the phone is available, and Sis is down the hall so close we could "Dit-Dot through the wall (if we...

Yesterday...

A totally wasted day as far as writing and posting goes. It seems as if it were catching or something.....Others here are complaining about it this morning. It started off good.

I'm Not Often Perplexed Anymore...But...

Today I am! I woke to a funny unusual noise going on somewhere in this large building. I didn't pay much attention to it until I tried to flush the toilet. Then I tried to wash my hands. Nothing! I went to the kitchen....not a drop of water anywhere.....no canned or bottled water anywhere.....my... Sign in to see full entry.

It's Time For A New Post Again...

.....Day in and day out it is time for a new post. Quite often I don't make it. The old one sits there for days and moves farther and farther down the line as new posts by fellow writers take the lead. "OK" I tell myself, "you can create a new story now!" Well...., so what am I waiting for? My... Sign in to see full entry.

The Way We Were

....."The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow gives a luster of midday to objects below"..... No, Dasher and Dancer and their buddies are not here, but a couple of half grown fauns are feeding from special food put out for them. The ground is white, the decorative bushes and the trees bare of... Sign in to see full entry.

Outside The Snow is Falling and...

.....but I do not hear anyone calling "You Hoo!" The school children are climbing out of each school bus without speaking, like they don't remember what snow is. The real winter has begun. Down the lane I see one of our ladies from this apartment building on her daily ritual for her first smoke of... Sign in to see full entry.

Staying In to Stay Alive...

No snow, but from my window it looks like everything is ice-covered. I'm not going out to see if I'm right. Sis went out to shop. I sure hope she stays safe. Only one more day to wait to assemble my Nativity Scene and put out a few other Christmas Decoration. I am a December person for Christmas... Sign in to see full entry.

If I Can Just Hang In...

.....With suggestions from Son who is always there for me, the Laptop is getting a little more manageable, but everything is different, lost, unmanageable. Finally, with the help of Son, I did find where Blogit went and got it back. I'm hanging in there. One more week.... My Thanksgiving guests are... Sign in to see full entry.

My Laptop Has Gone Crazy...

All of a sudden like...There is no cloudcover. Nothing is where it ought to be. The only way I could find Blogit was to go to YouTube and type it in under what I wanted to do there. Nothing is in its place. I tried to place an order for something and as yet have not found out how to do that. I think... Sign in to see full entry.

About this Blog

I accidentally erased my whole Perplexities blog and everything that was in it from 2004 on. So-o-o-o-o-o, I'm beginning it again. Wonder how far I'll get before I make another big mistake.
