Poor little Grover. I’m probably being cruel, but he makes me laugh. The other day it was hot and he was sitting in the front door entryway watching the bunnies and squirrels torture him for fun. I walked past and noticed a huge slobber hanging from his mouth. I ran and got my camera and [...]

It’s Wednesday. I intend to win the Lottery tonight. I hedged my bets (hahahaha) and bought a Power Ball and a Missouri Lotto. I will win one or the other, I’m certain. The odds are not good. I buy an average of 1 ticket a month each year, maybe less. Still, I’m feeling good about [...]
And, now, heavy drinking shall ensue………..

My nerves are shot. I might as well admit it. I called my mother at lunch, Monday, (we do this every single work day) and the line was busy. No biggy. She’s a doll and very popular. I tried again in about five minutes. Busy. Another five minutes. Busy. I did this for 30 minutes. [...]

My little brother loved music. Maybe more than anyone else I have ever known. One of the last things we did together was see Todd Rundgren. Guess what my soundtrack is today? Yup. I have been trying hard to get the videos imbedded in my posts, but so far, ain’t workin’, so we’ll [...]
Clever titles escape me (BUT IT’S FRIDAY!!!!!!!)

Good morning. It is another beautiful Friday morning here in Middle Earth. OK. It’s cloudy and rainy and feels a bit like late September, but it’s Friday so it’s beautiful. My standards drop exponentially as we get closer to the weekend;-)
Last night the temps were pretty cool, about mid 60’s for early evening in July [...]
It was one of those mornings, folks.

Good morning from Chez Screw-up. Do you remember when I spilled my tea yesterday? Well, it went on the keyboard. I thought it had spilled on the chair and floor, but noooooooooooo, it also went into the keyboard. I sat down to compose my post for this morning and when I typed, I got this………pakgyaksod [...]
Substitute

I’m hearing The Who. Not Horton, but the band. And, the song today is “Substitute”. I do believe Keith Moon is still my all time favorite drummer (and wild man). So, while that’s playing in my head (and you are all welcome to come in) I will once again chat with [...]

When in doubt, don’t walk away from the kitchen when you are boiling something on the stove top. My lesson of yesterday. I should have known I was attempting too much. I had, after all, successfully changed a windshield wiper blade all by myself. I watered everything (so we had 2″ [...]
Does it feel hot in here?

Our thermometer on the back deck read 103F yesterday afternoon. Our actual high was 99. I think it’s finally gotten a bit hot for me. With the humidity and general haze in the air, it was a day to stay indoors. I felt rotten anyway so it wasn’t a stretch. [...]

FRIDAY I overslept and I’m running late! But, in the hopes of preventing everyone from missing out on the weekend, I wanted to let you all know that TODAY IS FRIDAY!!!! We’ve been anticipating this day all week and I felt a duty to remind you so that you don’t accidentally continue your workweek [...]
