I’m thinking of more topics to write about

I’m still struggling with when I want to write about my favorite shops. So far I’ve been doing it on Wednesdays – but I seem to have a lot to write about on that day. I really need to make a better schedule. I don’t want you inundated with posts on the same day – [...]

A few thoughts early in the morning

Good morning – I’ve been up since 11:30pm. I went to bed at 9pm, fell asleep right away, and then at 11:30 woke up with a fierce cramp in my foot. Got up, walked it off, then went back to bed.

No sleep. Lay awake for 2 hours before I decided to get up. Haven’t had [...]

Nature in the raw

You know, we have a produce stand.  Right now we are selling sweet corn, and watermelon – we’ve had lots of different vegis during the summer, but it’s kind of winding down for right now.

Anyway, I had a customer call this morning to pick up 100 ears of sweet corn. Many of our customers do [...]

Mamma Mia!!

I don’t usually stay up very late, but DH was out hunting last nite – and I noticed that Mamma Mia was going to be on HBO at 7:30pm – that would put it done at about 9:30 – and DH was not due back before then – so ok, I’m ready!!

My girl friend and [...]

Another year older and still going strong!

My birthday was over a month ago – actually on May 3rd, and I turned 63. I’ve often pondered about my birthday – what I like about it, what I don’t, that I thought I’d let you in on a little secret.

You are only as old as you feel. I’m sure you’ve heard that before [...]

Day 3 in New York

Day 3 began as all the other days has, with me getting up earlier than I should. This time, I woke at 6, went back to sleep and got up at 7. Ok, so that’s not early, however, we didn’t get back to the hotel until 11 again last nite – and it takes me [...]

Journal of my trip to New York – March 2009

For me to travel anywhere is unusual. So when my sister asked if I would fly to NY to be with Mom, who cannot be by herself, to visit my Brother, I said sure. The fact that Mom is paying for the trip (and I am retired and on limited income) helped as well.

I decided [...]

When you are in a hurry…

Why is it, that when you have a ton of things to do – something goes wrong??

The last couple of nites, I woke up too early, and couldn’t get back to sleep. 2 nites in a row like that, then I really start to drag.

Last nite, I actually caught up with my sleep (can you [...]

Laugh for today!

If you are a woman over 40, you will appreciate the following from Andy Rooney:

As I grow in age, I value women over 40 most of all. Here are just a few reasons why:
A woman over 40 will never wake you in the middle of the night and ask, ‘What are you thinking?She doesn’t care [...]

First Snowfall

Being from southern Virginia, we don’t often get snow in our area. Well – the weathermen last night mentioned the possibility of snow flurries. Nah!

Yep – we did indeed get snow flurries! The ground had a white coating that didn’t last very long, but it was nice to look at while it lasted.

I don’t mind [...]
