Why is it that because Roommie and I don't work, people automatically assume we're at their beckon call? They assume that we'd be more than happy to drop our lives to take care of their children and grandchildren. Here's what set me off. Earlier today, Roommie had gone to a clothing bank with her...

I just wrote this poem for Mick... GIVE TO YOU Has it really been so long? The years you’ve been away just seemed to drag on No warning, no goodbye My heart was left To wither and die Your friendship you once willingly gave to me Your love to me was free These things I give to you You needed time to...

There is something about when someone says they hate something about someone they've never met and therefore don't know that rips my heart out. How is it possible for a person to feel such contempt for a person they don't even know? Last week, I was talking to John, and we were talking about the... Sign in to see full entry.

This being the month of Thanksgiving, I've decided to write about things I'm thankful for, one each day until the holiday itself. Many heartfelt thanks to my dear friend MountainClimber, who inspired me to do this. I'm thankful that I met Paul. I realise we still don't know one another very well,... Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning, gang... I hope you all had an absolutely fantastic Halloween. Mine was quiet. I just didn't have the energy to get myself up to much. Still, it was fun posting for you all. However, as I was just telling our lovely Symphony this morning, I have had a slight change of plan for GHOST... Sign in to see full entry.

Here is just a wee bit more of the story, though I'll post again from the beginning for those of you who may have missed it. Enjoy!!...

GHOST LOVERS Paris, France-Present Day I roam the many streets of Paris this icy Halloween night in search of the legend. Not Jack the Ripper, but Erik. Since first hearing his story, I wonder just how much of his story is true-and how much of it isn’t. Was he truly the tortured soul he proclaimed... Sign in to see full entry.

No, don't worry gang... I'm not leaving blogit. At least, not permanently. I'm just letting my loyal readers know a head of time that I'll be taking four days off in November. From Thanksgiving day until the following Monday, I plan to allow my poor computer a bit of a holiday itself. It's good to... Sign in to see full entry.

Happy Halloween, my friends!! Can you believe it? We've made to another one already!! Where the heck has the year flown to? Before we know it, another Thanksgiving holiday will thrust itself upon us!! So, what are your plans for the day my friends? Anyone here planning to dress up? Not me. I never...

Today has most definitely been one of my much a blog about nothing days. I was hoping it would be better, but I'm so exhausted right now that it isn't even funny!! Roommie will be gone for most of the day tomorrow. She's taking a day trip with her parents to spend Halloween with her sister' family... Sign in to see full entry.

I've decided to spend some time burning some more my CDs into my windows media player. Actually, I really need to splurge on some new music!!!! All day long, I've been running round like mad trying to find my one and only Darren Hayes CD. (For those of you who may never have heard of him, he's the... Sign in to see full entry.

Since tomorrow is Halloween here in the states, I decided to send Mick and Nathan Aaron a Halloween e-card from the Humane Society. I thought it might bring them a smile or two. At least, I hope it will. Mick just seems so sad and lost right now. (No, I haven't actually had a reply to my email or... Sign in to see full entry.

I'll be back, gang... First I have to have lunch and a bit of a workout. During which I'll run a disc scan. Until I return... Sign in to see full entry.

Why is it that whenever I try to look up information on a product online, I end up wanting to pull my hair out??!! Okay, here's the situation...I went to amazon to check out some prices for digital cameras, and I actually found two for prices lower than what I just discovered at Wal-Mart. It will...

No, I'm not reciting the jingle for the Cambell's soup ads...I just went to Wal-Mart online to look at some digital cameras and I think I may have found a couple within my price range. Just not for a while yet. I never actaually thought I'd want a digital camera. I already own two cameras, one of... Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning, gang... I hope you all had a fabulous weekend!! I'm less tired than I have been in a while. I've been practising my crochet, but with no improvement as yet I'm afraid. Still, I won't give up. Today I'll do some writing. Don't know what I'll work on just yet, but I'll be sure to keep... Sign in to see full entry.

Now that I've heard from Mick again at long last, my heart feels slightly free to beat normally again...But only just. I still have not heard from my son. I kept hoping that his parents would ring me to say he'd tried to reach me on his own, but thus far that hasn't happened and isn't likely to. I'm... Sign in to see full entry.

Well, we did end up having Chinese food for dinner. Roommie ordered her favourite combination dinner plate, and I had some cashew chicken with pork fried rice and an eggroll. We've both still got some left over, though. Couldn't eat it all and we're still stuffed!! Looks like those three fortune... Sign in to see full entry.

With Halloween fast approaching us, I've read a few posts here and there on the subject of whether we belive in ghosts. I do believe that the souls of our loved ones can visit us in the times we need it most. I know this first hand because God sent my Grandpa back to me for one last physical visit....

Good afternoon, gang... Today is Roommie's birthday!!!! The old goat is thirty four years old!! I call her this most affectionately, of course.
