I’m feeling some pressure to post something here, even though I have virtually nothing of value or interest to share. This has probly happened only a couple of times since I started blogging. That’s frightening to me. What if I wake up some day and REALLY don’t have ANYTHING to say???!!!
Speaking of [...]

Taking full advantage of a beautiful morning, waking up on the back porch with coffee and web-surfing capabilities. I’ve visited with 3 people online, two neighbors and one husband so far and didn’t have to even stand up. Called and scheduled two medical appointments and am going to call me mum here in [...]

I just sat down here because I’m waiting for a phone call and don’t want to start anything and then have to quit when the phone rings.
I have not one thing in my head to write about. I’m going to wing it and see what comes to me.
*looking around the room, hoping something inspires [...]

I HAD A LIFE ONCE

So how am I liking this new work schedule?
Here’s my take…  Sit on your ass for 10 hours working, surrounded by a bunch of tense, overly-tired people sitting on their asses for 10 hours surrounded by a bunch of tense, overly-tired people.  Drag your sore butt home and try to stay awake until bedtime, which [...]

I’m trying to take it kind of easy this weekend, dreading gearing up for working 4 ten-hour days this week. You might not see that as a major feat yourself, but for moi, getting up at 4:30 in the morning is something akin to having major dental work or trying to get a trial [...]

Each weekday I awaken at (somewhere between 5:15 and) 5:30 am. I spend approximately one hour making myself presentable to leave the house and spend 8 hours at my job and then drive home for 15 minutes. So essentially, from the time I go to bed each night… which fluctuates between 10 and [...]

SICK OF SICK

The most constructive thing I did today was roam around my house wiping telephones, doorknobs, light switches and faucets with Clorox wipes.
Around 4pm, PD said to me, “Oh, by the way, Happy Valentine’s Day!” I instantly choked up. Add to the already runny nose and watery eyes.
I also watched Gus Van Sant’s [...]

AND THE WORLD GOES ON

I’ve been down with the flu since Tuesday afternoon.  Life has consisted of sleeping and trying to eat and then thinking better of it.  I’ve been on here a couple of times but I’ve gotten way behind on blog reading.  Maybe I’ll get caught up on the weekend.
I’ve come to realize that being confined to [...]

SUNDAY WRAP

I woke up in the middle of last night with a full-blown touch body-slam of the flu. All this time I’ve been trying to gain weight? Ha ha. Gone. That’s all I have to say about that.
I laid around all day with my new best friend, the down comforter. We bonded. [...]

One Wink at a Time has not been such a fun place lately. I need to do something about that. I will. Give me a little while to come up with something. Any suggestions for a feature or something everybody might be interested in? Remember way back when, I used [...]

It’s setting in. I feel it. No more Christmas cards in the mail. Just bills. No more yummy homemade cookies in the cupboard. Just Oreos. No good excuses to pour a drink. Except maybe ennui. No more pretty packages to open. Just trying to find a [...]

(Pretend that numeral is not there to the left. I can’t make it go away) Just to show you how adept I am at multi-tasking, let me list for you all the things I am presently- meaning At This Very Moment- doing. Here we go. I am:

Cursing myself for not remembering [...]

RIP VAN WINKATATIME

There’s nothing new here.  Sorry if you’re disappointed.  I’ll post tomorrow.  Too tired.  Have a good night or a good day, whichever you want.  I’m going to bed.  Zzzzzzzzz…

SCATTERED…

… is how I’ve been feeling.  I can’t seem to focus on anything. I’m leaning toward blaming it on the medication I’m on for this “female annoyance.”  Two more months of this hormone-induced madness seems like more than I’m wanting to endure.  Just. Can’t. Imagine…
It’s fucking ridiculous hard to endure hot flashes in the midst [...]

Just poppin’ in to say “Hi” and see how y’all are doin’.  It is a sweltering 94 degrees here and I just may stay in tonight and enjoy the AC.  It’s the kind of hot, that when you’re outside it’s hard to breathe and it makes you (ok, me) nauseous.  Blecch.
Enjoying having The Kid here, [...]

Any second PD is going to stride in here and give me the look.  He won’t say anything, he’ll just look at me and then the clock and I’ll make some excuse as to why I’m not in bed.  (Yeah, it does kind of make me feel like I’m 14, but if I say anything, [...]

INSIDE THE BOX

Do you ever sit down here without a clue as to what you might write?  I just opened this and am sitting here staring at a blank screen and feeling as if my head is as empty as this box.  I guess being away from work for two days is cleansing… but if that translates into “empty-headed” [...]

This is like, my third attempt at posting.  This is not supposed to be a chore.  And it never has been before.  I usually come here prepared and excited to share.  Lately, I dunno.  I’m not feeling it.  It could be any number of things… 

The weather is nice and I’d rather be outside enjoying fresh [...]

I had something to say, which was nothing short of amazing, considering that I’m sporting a Novocaine-induced cheek/mouth numbification… but all I can think aboot right now is the fact that I deleted my profile photo and uploaded another one.  Problem is, now I have a big black square where my Novocaine-numbed face should be.

How You Doin’?

Had a post to write last night but because we live in the Dark Ages here in my state of our first Spring thunderstorm, the Internet was down and I couldn’t get on.  PD said it was down, anyway, so I didn’t attempt.  It was pretty nasty, but I’m proud of myself, I didn’t end [...]

AIN’T NO SUNSHINE

Was it too much to ask that the sun could have come out today?  I only had one teeny wish and that was for sunshine.  There’s not even a Moon, as far as I can see.
It’s been a loooooong day.  I’m off to enjoy a Vanilla Caramel Swirl bubblebath with candles and a bottomless glass of [...]

I was going to try and fix my clock thing but decided it’s going to be all fuggered up anyway with Daylight Saving Time starting this weekend so there is one thing I can cross off my To Do list.  (Mark, restrain yourself.)
I’m wondering why only Jeff’s and my pictures show up in the comments.  [...]
