Wine

He shuffles inside the store Up and down each aisle Perusing the many labels In search of the right one He spies from the corner of his eye Dark purple elixir he loves Small enough he can tuck inside his jacket Drink alone Or as a cocktail Add a white soda to spritz it up on the rocks MD - drink of...

Trip to the middle east part 20

They ask me at the front desk to wait while they check the room. They send the bellboy to verify the refrigerator is still full. Which of course it is. I finish checking out at 12 noon. There is my cabbie waiting patiently for me at the front door. I signal just a minute until given the heads up... Sign in to see full entry.

Trip to the middle east part 19

I can't really sleep because of the aggravation once I landed. I turn on the good ole boob tube to zone out and hopefully drift off to sleep. About 1:30 am I give up and turn off the tv to sleep. I hear less traffic going down the streets by the hotel. I wake up and look at the clock. Oh my God! I... Sign in to see full entry.

Trip to the middle east part 18

Finally the security guard comes in and starts talking loud. Everybody gets up to move out and go through the screening process. I don't understand: I just follow the crowd. Sure enough the guard is there to start screening everybody. There is a problem with the person in front of me. Not sure... Sign in to see full entry.

Leaving on a Jet Plane II

Robert becomes upset easy but then again he also settles back down very easy. He no sooner had made it half way upstairs that he decided he would rather share the pizza than to sit upstairs alone and eat the other piece of pizza watching cartoons and crying. They went back with the pizza and shared... Sign in to see full entry.

Leaving on a Jet Plane

Ana didn't settle down the other night even though she was sleeping until I went to bed. I held her, rubbing her back whenever she started whimpering in her sleep. She slept soundly after about an hour. Yesterday she woke up whiny about me leaving. Then her parents left to have a date while I was... Sign in to see full entry.

Trip to the middle east part 17

He didn't wake me up last night when I fell asleep so early. I wake at 5:00 am this morning. Way too early for him to be up so I toss and turn until about 6:30 am. I eat breakfast and mah jong ( a game we both became addicted to playing over the past month). I turn on the cooking channel to get last... Sign in to see full entry.

Follow up on New Movie II

Wow! Apparently this is quite a hot topic with the writers here. I imagine it would be for every writer. I think the thought of someone thinking my work is good enough to copy would be a compliment for all of a second. Then anger and frustration would be next. Our writing is treasured. It takes time...

Heartbreak

I know what you might be thinking but no it's not me and my husband. My granddaughter is once again worried and upset that I am leaving to go home again. She started crying this afternoon and I still have 1.5 days before I leave. She has a special place in my heart as does her brother. She wants me... Sign in to see full entry.

Trip to the middle east part 16

Today we are exhausted from running around all this week. We just relax until the afternoon. I pack the suitcase that I am leaving here in Egypt. He packs his suitcase. He takes both of them back to his family flat while I watch tv. I made the mistake of taking my allergy medicine around 8pm and... Sign in to see full entry.
