Good morning. Yesterday started as a good day, and then everything went south. People stopped in unannounced, and we received about a dozen more phone calls than usual... but we got through it and started fresh for today. We've been trying to come up with a set of days when we can both go to... Sign in to see full entry.

Happy Birthday, Amanda! Plus September Pics & More 'River,' and A Joke
Good morning! Today is Amanda's birthday, and I wanted to give her a shoutout here as well on FB. I'm going to keep this short. I've got to go to Valdosta... again, but I'm winning. In August 2002, I visited the site of the Twin Towers to see for myself what had happened. What I saw shook me like... Sign in to see full entry.

My Master Plan, Awake Too Early... and more "River Bends"
Good morning. It got "Florida cold,"... down to 59 last night. After weeks of 95-102, 59 is COLD!! LOL. It's supposed to be 85 again before dropping down to about 60 tonight. The dogs got me up around 7 am today, and I am not a 7 am person... but the consequences of not letting them out is the only... Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning. I read the comments, and YES... we got our money back, and a man I thought I knew is in jail. I don't understand how you can think you can steal $400+ from 'common people,' and expect they we wouldn't notice it. In the meantime, my old Capital One debit card has had to be replaced...

Rainy Days & Rainy Nights And The Other Usual Stuff
Good morning. Yesterday was a trying day, but while I didn't accomplish anything else, I did recover the money that was taken from our Capital One account, and someone went to jail. I still call it a wasted day. We didn't spend much time outside, and it definitely wasn't a calm day, but it is behind... Sign in to see full entry.

We Been Robbed! (Seriously!) More "River Bends" and a Joke
Good afternoon. This has been a less-than-wonderful day, but I'm hoping I have it turned around now. We went through the shelves to see what needed to be ordered or purchased, and I made a list of the items I typically order from Walmart online. The closest one is about 35-40 miles from here, and it... Sign in to see full entry.

Excuses, A Punch Line, and More "Where the River Bends"
Good morning. As what seems to be an everyday thing lately, the minute I sit down to post here, 53 other things come up. I got a lot of writing done yesterday, along with some editing. Ya can't do one without doing the other. Lisa wants to wander over to Live Oak, a town about 40 miles from here,... Sign in to see full entry.

Plans, Joke, & Another Story Chapter
Good morning. I've already posted more of the romance story I am running in this segment. Yes, I kinda do it for 'more eyes' on the story, but despite running this ms (manuscript) through a dozen different grammar checks, and still, when I posted it here, I found three errors... all very tiny, but...

The Weather, A Joke, A Cover, AND A Love Story
Good morning. We are gonna try this again. I had this page all set to publish, and I guess I 'fat-fingered' the attempt to hit the button, and it erased everything. It looks to be a pleasant day here, with the high approaching 90. I'm going to start posting this story here for you to read and for me... Sign in to see full entry.

Romance and A Joke
Good morning. It's roughly 9:30, and the day has already been hectic, but we will get through it intact. Sometimes, that's all that matters. I had two doctor's appointments yesterday, both related to the advancing problems with Parkinson's. It was bad enough that my left hand had a bad case of the... Sign in to see full entry.
