Lately

Less than 50 have died since 9/11 from muslims but 30 or more deaths per day from gun violence. Why are we not concentrating on that rather than Islam? The three graduating students on the east coast were muslims. What did they do? Apparently nothing other than being muslim. Their neighbor hated... Sign in to see full entry.

people watching

I don't know how many of you if any of you used to go to the airport and people watch before 9/11. My high school sweetheart and I used to go to Lambert airport and watch all the people walking by us. It was interesting at times. My favorite ones that I saw were a father and son. The son apparently... Sign in to see full entry.

Coat Check

It was a slow night Friday with all the crappy weather. I made a whopping $11 in tips all night. I even had one woman had me a five and say "Give me $2 change." Really? You think I can't subtract 3 from 5? I bit my tongue and just smiled as I handed her her change. Last week I had a woman think she... Sign in to see full entry.

Saturday

Saturday I returned to the same place to coat check. The crowd can get rowdy and Saturday was no exception since many had started partying at the big parade for mardi gras. As a matter of fact there were more people bounced than usual and 3 broken noses. There was one guy who was supposedly jumped... Sign in to see full entry.

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!

I needed to make some extra money since there aren't that many shops to do this month and nothing to work at the stadium. I messaged my nephew and luckily there was an opening today and Valentine's Day at one of the valet locations to do coat check. I thought why not? I was supposed to work from 9pm...

Building a following amongst ourselves

Tonight on Facebook I suggested in one of my writer's groups that we also follow/share/like our pinterest accounts and twitter accounts. I think this is another way we can increase our followers and readerships. It's amazing how so many people look for those popular accounts to follow rather than a... Sign in to see full entry.

Can you listen

Yesterday I called the doctor's office to have prescriptions refilled for my mom. She needed a new script for her diabetes test strips. I told her at least three times the name of the test strips. ReliOn micro. How hard is that? My son picked up the prescriptions. This morning she went to test her... Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning everybody, I hope all of you are safe and sound. I hope all of you have been able to evade the nasty flu and cold bugs going around. I unfortunately was not so lucky. Spent all day in bed yesterday after a sleepless night on Sunday. I am finally feeling better. Will be making the rounds... Sign in to see full entry.

Mom's pearls

Yesterday mom and I were in the kitchen with Elijah (my grandson). She sat him in her lap to keep him from crawling under the table to her stash she had on the chair on the backside of the table. He started sneezing repeatedly. I became worried she might get his cold. I asked her if she wanted me to... Sign in to see full entry.
