The Human Prune...

.....My youngest Sister Sharon is taking her first travel flight since being bought out of working for SSI and is now retired at 70. She lives in Maryland and will be flying in for my 88th birthday in July. I'm trying hard to remain a beautiful juicy ripe plum, but I'm quickly turning into a dried... Sign in to see full entry.

Never Again!...I'm Done With Photo Troubles & Trials...

.....Just use your imagination when/if you are reading me. I'll try to give a verbal description that can give you a mental picture.....that's the best I can do. Today, Son Stephen and Grandson Phil and I went out to eat. As far as I know, it was the first time that Phil had seen me keeping up with... Sign in to see full entry.

Gray Day ... Gray Day... Gray Day

The sky is thick with clouds, the ground is wet, no sunshine do I see. And, I feel as if I am a part of the whole mess both physically and mentally. What a way to begin a Sunday Morning and the beginning of Memorial Day Weekend Week. Of course, on this week of each year my mind goes to Ribcage and... Sign in to see full entry.

It's True...Laughter Is the Best Medicine...

.......What would you say is about the percentage of laughter in your communication with those that you love?

I Feel Old and Useless When...

.....I can't accomplish something by myself any longer, like: 1. Like not being able to make my computer do what I want it to do. (like showing that old photo yesterday.) It's like where did my brain go? 2. Like walking by myself without a walker. It's like where did my balance go? (Good grief, I'm... Sign in to see full entry.

The Whining Game...

As a newly wed I did not have babies right away, but when I did they came fast and furious, four little boys in five years. Four little boys whining can drive a person nuts. They did not learn it from me or their Dad. I guess it is an automatic reaction to unhappiness. But I dealt with it as best I... Sign in to see full entry.

Zounds! How Can It Be...

......How can it be that loved ones who know me well and would do just about anything for me to save me if I were in peril, still bring me food that they know I have an allergy for it and that I do not buy it for myself.

Although Perplexities Still Knock on My Door Now & Then...

.....I seldom have an urge to write about them. Mostly I just ignore them and and continue on my way with my own terms and time to deal with them. I figure that other Blogit members have enough of their own perplexities that they do not need mine to read about or spend any time worrying. So, when I... Sign in to see full entry.

What a Lot of Effort...

.....After not being able to get into my own computer for several days because I could not remember passwords, I was totally freaked out and had totally given up ever being on the computer any longer. What an effort it is to get up and running again mainly with me because I have never been organized... Sign in to see full entry.

About this Blog

I accidentally erased my whole Perplexities blog and everything that was in it from 2004 on. So-o-o-o-o-o, I'm beginning it again. Wonder how far I'll get before I make another big mistake.
