The Loon Is Loud Today

Daylight came today at regular time with a few clouds in the sky and expectations of a beautiful Sunday. After I had my first cup of coffee while sitting in my favorite recliner that looks out upon the surrounding area, I noticed that instead of getting lighter, it was getting darker. The sky was...

Recently FODMAPS Came Into My Awareness

They (FODMAPS) happen to be some kind of little buggers that sneak into my diet and cause me all kinds of troubles and sometimes pain. It has only happened since my last birthday (the 85th) as if they know that now I am old and decrepit. So, I have been studying up on them and finding that I have... Sign in to see full entry.

Call This One an Aggravation

I was eating my lunch, a combo of pork, potato and zucchini, and along with a cucumber I had one nice big pitted green olive stuffed with blue cheese. and was enjoying it when the aggravation occurred. Apparently, when the olive was pitted, they did not get all of the pit. As I was chewing the... Sign in to see full entry.

New School Year, New School, New Class

I contacted my Daughter-in-law to see how she was doing after one week of school. The last five years she has taught in a very large high school, juniors and seniors. She decided to try a much smaller school nearer to home and ended up with 10 year olds, 5th grade. Me: "How is school going for you... Sign in to see full entry.

Swollen Head?

A change in the atmosphere here yesterday and today, with cloudy skies, humidity, and who knows what else, has effected my sinuses and made me very uncomfortable and lackadaisical about writing at Blogit or reading and commenting to other writers blogs. For one thing, with my head hurting in the... Sign in to see full entry.

The Hassle of Voting

I do believe that this is a voting day in Missouri. I guess I had better get out of my night clothes, and make myself decent even though it is more fun to sit here in front of my laptop with a hot cup of coffee and see what is going on in the world and what my friends are thinking about it and doing...

A Walk In The Sun

Since summer came and hot weather with it, I haven't been walking outside, instead exercising my ancient body and mind in the confines of my air-conditioned living quarters. Actually, I'm quite good at finding myriads of ways to exercise all parts of my body since as a nurse I loved encouraging ROM... Sign in to see full entry.

I Wonder What I Would Do

Evacuation Orders may be initiated by law enforcement, Fire Departments, Public Health Agencies, and in rare cases some federal agencies when residents are requested to vacate the area due to an imminent threat or if conditions exist that seriously imperil or endanger the lives of those in the...

The Day of the Dread

The day is upon me. Only an hour left and I will join other people who are, at the moment, a year older than I...people that when I look at their current photos I cringe and think, "Who is that? I don't know them."....and yet...and yet...I've worked hard to get here. Day in and day out, one day at a... Sign in to see full entry.

The Pest-Control Gossiper

It seems that all apartment buildings and apartment complexes in Kansas City area have, or are supposed to have pest control every three months (for bugs, mice, or anything like that). Today was one of those days. The way that these are set up is for some buildings to be done each day until the... 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.
