If you are into such things, I began to post a new story, a sci-fi story to be exact, today. I've tentatively titled it, " The Overseer’s Garden." It's a futuristic story of life under the influence of a voice heard everywhere on a speaker. The overseer sees all, knows, and punishes all who fail to... Sign in to see full entry.

The Weather, My Goals, Our Plans... AND A Joke
Good morning. I finished posting one of my favorite short stories yesterday, and I'm trying to decide which story to start with next. I have about ten done, and I'll probably pick one later this early afternoon and start posting it. The weather is beginning to moderate. Instead of high 90s pushing... Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning. There's not a lot going on in our world today, making it a well-sought-after day. I posted the last of my romance story of a couple who had been together for decades. I really liked that story, and going back over it allowed me to correct a few things I had missed the first two times... Sign in to see full entry.

About Last Night... Being Shot... But Ending with A Joke
Good morning. It was a wild and crazy night here in Madison. About 9:15, we began to hear lots and lots of sirens on the 'far side' of town (we live on the extreme east side of town, and the sirens were going to the west side of town). This morning, I read that a man with known emotional issues... Sign in to see full entry.

May I Have This Dance? This is How Memories Are Made & A Joke!
Good morning. We had a nice night out last night. The place always has good food, and when they open the dance floor, we are almost always the first ones out there. I think we got there about 7:15, and we were home by 11. If I remember right, the whole night cost us about $65, including gas. The... Sign in to see full entry.

A Fire? Yep - But Not Serious
Well, it's been a wild and crazy morning already. In between the time I made the rest of my posts, I thought I could smell smoke. I went to the front door and saw a small curl of smoke coming from the church across the street. I called 911 and told the dispatcher what I had observed. Moments later,... Sign in to see full entry.

A Picture And A Good Bye
Good morning. I was a lot more stunned by the way Buster died yesterday than I ever thought I could be. I guess it was just how quickly it happened. He laid his head on the blanket (not the one below, but one like it), closed his eyes, and died. I had been a paramedic and ER nurse too long not to... Sign in to see full entry.

Sing Me A Sad Song
Good morning. It hasn't been a 'good' morning for us today. Buster, our big black German Shepard/Black Lab mix, passed away just minutes ago. Buster was an 'old man' by anyone's book at the age of twelve. He was a monstrously huge dog. His back was at mid-thigh on me, and the last time he saw the... Sign in to see full entry.

Bad Publishers Are Everywhere - Here's An Honest One
Good morning! It's looking like another warm day, but hey... this is August! Instead of my usual drivel, I'd like to show you an email I got from a 'company' trying to solicit me. This is totally fake. Your first clue should be the email address she gives. A real company has a real company email.... Sign in to see full entry.

A Quick Note and a Note for "Just The Two of Us"
Good morning. It looks like the horrific heat is over. It will still get hot, but the days of 100+ degree days are over for now. This will allow me to get back on schedule... I hope! I have another check-up, so this will be short. I'm fine, but doctors can't afford to eat if they don't get you back... Sign in to see full entry.
