I found a guy. I’m going just a little crazy over him. I’m not sure how I found him, maybe by the end of this post I’ll remember.
He’s a musician, and as I tend to do, I’m becoming obsessed with him. Or his music, rather, (although he is “my type.”
I [...]

PD and I went to an auction today. We didn’t get there as early as I would have liked, but there were only a few things I was really interested in and I did get a chance to give them a good looking-over before the bidding began.
As far as the weather goes, it was [...]

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 [...]

You know, my life is weird. It may not be much of a life, but damn, it’s interesting. I’m not exactly sure if it is my life. per se, or if it’s my perspective. Maybe it’s just that I’m so easily amused and entertained. Either way, prepare yourself for a weird [...]

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 [...]

I met Jesse when he was about four years old. He was a really cool little kid. As he got older, I started giving him riddles to solve. He was pretty good at them. I never thought it was necessary to tell him that I am terrible with riddles. My mind just isn’t logical like [...]

My poor mom called me when I got home from work today to ask if she’d left a shopping bag in my car. Seems one of her purchases was missing but showed up on her receipt from the store where I’d dropped her off while I returned PD’s movies.
I checked my backseat and trunk [...]

If you’re reading this and there’s a possibility that I don’t have your birthday on my calendar, please go back to yesterday’s post and leave it there for me. Shanks.
To give a little background on the kind of day I had, I’ll tell you… I’m back on “Those Pills” again. The ones that make [...]

I found my card box. What a relief that was. We’d been doing some insulating in the attic last Spring and some things got moved around. I have a Christmas corner in the attic. I’m guessing the box got moved because it was labeled “GLASS-Fragile” and not “Christmas Cards.” So it was in a different [...]

Crazy week I’m having here, thanks for askin’.
Therapy progress was looking grim until this morning when I woke up and felt like a human being. I’m feeling more hopeful. My ultrasonic and hands-on massage yesterday was accompanied by a quite informative half-hour long oration about the history of the states of Mississippi and [...]

PD and I went to the flea market at the park today instead of tomorrow. I thought it might be nice to just have an at-home day before going back to work.
I did pretty good as far as not buying too much stuff I don’t need. I think I took about $70 with me [...]

I did it. I survived, but barely. Working four 10-hour days is definitely not my bottle of beer. cup of tea. I couldn’t get to sleep at night and couldn’t wake up in the morning. Driving to work in the dark with pea-soup fog is for the birds. My body hurts. And I now have [...]

Here’s the Thing…
Last weekend on our way home from the family reunion, PD and I stopped for dinner at one of our favorite little places in a town called Punxsutawney. While we were dining, I felt a little spell of mild anxiety coming on. (something not entirely unusual for me after a few nights [...]

I’m going to blame my state of mind of late on the medication I’m taking. There is no other explanation for my behavior recently. Or rather, I should say, the way I’ve been feeling. I can’t say the least little thing sets me off, it takes a wee bit more than that, [...]

Had a perfectly lovely visit with the JuJu’s. Our visit went entirely too quickly, as always. I had decided beforehand to come home yesterday to give myself a quiet, lazy day today. Yes, I actually begged off a picnic invitation. I’ll go back to work tomorrow and Friday and then have a weekend to enjoy. [...]

I guess I’ve been neglecting posting mostly for lack of anything interesting or positive to report. I’ve been experiencing a kind of crappy intermission lately; a break from my normally wonderful, exciting and enthusiastic existence. Ha.
Let’s get all the shitty shit crap out of the way and move on to the lighter side then…
I had what [...]

I’ve been sent the above “Easter greeting” in emails for aboot the past three years and it still makes me laugh every time…
Spent the day shawpin’ today with PD and me mum. Blustery as a day on Pooh Corner and twice as cold, but a fun day. I made my rounds to my music stores [...]
