goodnight

Another day has ended. All my muscles are sore. It's finally getting warm here and the crocuses are blooming. My 18 year old son is coming to visit for a week. He'll be here tomorrow night. He's been going to a community college. Nothing to say, so I will say goodbye until I have something to say. Sign in to see full entry.

Another job

I just got a call from the Theater. A few weeks ago, I went to the movie with my son. Afterwards, I left and went to a friends house. When I was leaving their house, I realized that I didn't have my purse with me. I started to panic, because this is one time I had about $100 cash in it. I drove back to the theater, and looked for it. I had remember hanging it in the bathroom stall. It wasn't there. The theater manager was very kind and even looked in the garbage cans for me. It wasn't there.... Sign in to see full entry.

Home for a little while

Today I normally do not have to clean the offices. Yesterday I was too tired, so decided Saturday would be better this time. I also found out I would have to re-clean (dust and mop) the doctors' offices because there had been some sheetrock work done in the room that needs finishing. It normally takes me 1 1/2 hours, but today it took 3, because I had to dust everything and wipe all the doors and baseboards down. Even though I didn't really want to do it, I am thankful for the extra money I... Sign in to see full entry.

The VW's I (we) have owned

My husband is working on our VW bus that broke down when he was driving it from Tucson. He had a very good friend put it in a trailer and bring him the rest of the way, to Oregon. We also bought another VW bus for a good price and he plans on getting it running. We want to keep them, but probably will need to sell them. Let's see, how many VWs have I (we) owned. My first VW bug was a 1961. It was pretty neat. It had no gas gauge, but if you ran out of gas, there was 1 extra gallon if you turned... Sign in to see full entry.

The Centipede

In Sonora, Mexico where we lived, there are scorpions, black widow spiders and centipedes. I haven't seen very many, but the ones I have seen are scary. The locals say that if you get bit by one, they latch onto you and you have to burn them to make them let go. I have never had one bit me, so I don't know. They are also supposed to be poisonous. One day I was going into my bedroom, when I saw an 8 inch centipede. It was about 1 inch across. I called my son, " Gordon, please come quick, there's... Sign in to see full entry.

About this Blog

I plan on writing about past and present life experiences and what I have learned from them. I also want to tell stories of things in my past, some humourus, some serious and some trivial. I have done some traveling and want to describe those places and people accurately, maybe in some cases changing names if I see it could embarrass someone. I will write out of my heart and hopefully give hope to some of my readers. I do not have all the answers, but have lived long enough to know there are many trials in life and obstacles. I want to examine life, it's simplicities and complexities and share my observation and at times opinions with others.
