Love at First Whiff

Can you fall in love with someone because of the way they smell? I did once. He couldn't’t have been more wrong for me. Ill- tempered, mean, alcoholic, no visible means of support… the list goes on. I had no idea why I fell so hard for this person. He smelled of vanilla and teak--one whiff sent me... Sign in to see full entry.

Do you have recurring dreams

about people or pets who have died? I had that dream again last night. The one where I discover that my former beloved cat, Pussycat, really didn’t die after all. In the dream, she turns up somewhere, thin and old, but alive, and I’m always overjoyed to see her. Somehow I am able to ignore all of... Sign in to see full entry.

My first marriage was a disaster!

How did I know I was getting married too young? When is someone too young to get married? When I think of who I was in my early 20s, it seems like I’m remembering someone else’s history. I had no idea who I was or what life was all about. My first marriage did not work out. The relationship was... Sign in to see full entry.

Winds of change

We’re going to be putting our house up for sale soon. For some time now, we’ve known that this house is too large for us and we’ve been craving the mobility that living ‘lighter’ will offer. We had the house up for sale last year but it didn’t sell because the market in our area was completely dead.... Sign in to see full entry.

Decisions, decisions...

Have you ever had one of those days where you go to your closet, pull something out to wear, try it on, change your mind, go the closet, pull something else out, try it on.... and about two hours later, you're still standing there with a big pile of clothes and nothing to wear? I'm having on of... Sign in to see full entry.

The show must go on...

Today we saw the movie, "Mrs. Henderson Presents," with Judi Dench and Bob Hoskins. The movie is based on a true story and in it, Ms. Dench plays a widow who buys a theatre pre-WWII and hires Hoskins to manage it. When every other theatre in town copies their popular musical revue style, they decide... Sign in to see full entry.

Nanaroo's Nanny Diary

I’m reading “The Nanny Diaries,” and it has jogged a memory for me dating back to the year 1971. It was summertime and somehow, my mom found me a job as a nanny for the summer for a very rich family on Long Island NY. How did that happen? Why would she do that? Why would I do that? I didn’t like... Sign in to see full entry.

Teeth and claws! Grrrrrrr- what brings yours out?

Several things happened yesterday that got me thinking about this question. When I read Angel's post about her little son getting attacked, I commented on it, saying that even though I am not a mother, if anyone tried to hurt Mister Cat I would probably kill them. Now, I may not go that far, but I... Sign in to see full entry.

It's a Zen Thing II- Night Flight

I was so excited about this flight that I arrived at the airport an hour before sunset, just to sit in the plane and let my eyes adjust to the fading light. It was a warm summer night, strategically chosen because of the full moon that would rise at 8pm. This was the evening for our night landing... Sign in to see full entry.
