Not A Fun Day, but A Very Necessary One

Having teeth removed is scary, and it becomes even more terrifying when your dentist refers you to an oral surgeon. That is where John and I are headed this afternoon for his consultation to see what needs to be done and how much in debt we will be after the procedure. Thank goodness for dental...

The View from Our Living Room Window This Morning At 3:30 A.M.

John is on the day shift this week, so he gets up at 3:30 am. He saw movement out of our living room picture window and quickly grabbed my cell phone. This pretty little lady decided to play nice and pose for him. It even appears that she smiled for the camera. Sign in to see full entry.

This Couple is An Absolute Favorite to Spot In My Neck of the Woods

This stunning couple can be seen at random times along the Youghiogheny River trail near Elizabeth, Pennsylvania. Rumor has it that they are expecting some little eagles this month. 🦅🦅 Sign in to see full entry.

I am Completely Exhausted, but I Am Looking Forward to the Superbowl Game

Our grandson John spent the night last night, and ever since he arrived yesterday, we have been running non-stop. We treated him to the McDonald's Big Mac Museum, a walk on the haunted trails, a trip to the park, and a walk along our river. Our youngest daughter just picked him up and they are now...

It's Such a Beautiful Day, So We Will Be Heading Out to the Park Later

It is an unseasonably warm 60 degrees here in Pittsburgh. My eleven-year-old grandson John is coming for an overnight visit, so we plan to take him to the park and then for a walk through the haunted Dead Man Hollow trails in Liberty, Pennsylvania this afternoon per his request. The trailhead for... Sign in to see full entry.

This is One of My Favorite Days

With crazy work hours at the steel mill, Friday is not normally the end of the week for John and me, but we still treat it as such by ordering or making a pizza. My favorite cheese-stuffed crust pie is topped with spinach, garlic, and a ton of mushrooms while John prefers sausage, onions, and... Sign in to see full entry.

All is Well That Ends Well

Yesterday, I was filled with apprehension as our appointment with H&R Block loomed near. John and I walked in the door completely expecting to owe out the keester on our taxes even though between us we had paid nearly $1,800 in federal taxes for the year 2023. Sitting in a cubicle with our tax... Sign in to see full entry.

I Am Dreading Our Appointment This Afternoon

Since laws regarding taxes change each year, I never know what to expect once we sit down with our tax preparer at H & R Block the first week of February, and today is that day. We have seen the same tax preparer for the past ten years, but our tax refund changes from year to year, depending on... Sign in to see full entry.

A Very Real Sign That Spring Has Arrived Early in Pittsburgh

This guy is a month ahead of himself. In my neck of the woods, Robins showing up in the yard in search of worms is a sign that spring is here. Sign in to see full entry.
