When Hot is Too Hot

This is a perfect offering from Slim Randles to share on the blog today. It’s roasting here in Texas and has been for several weeks. No rain for several weeks, either, with none in sight. And of course there is no global warming. Sigh… Anyway, it’s too hot to rant about anything, even though the […]

July Fourth Celebrations Begin

Since I’m still in recovery mode from my shoulder surgery and some complications that popped up – literally as in swollen feet and legs – I’m pulling a post from July 2015. My friend Slim Randles wrote about what the Fourth of July holiday means in this thoughtful essay about parades, flags, and Independence Day.

Hump-Day Humor

Police in my little city are going down the street ticketing cars that are parked on the grass. Not the grass by the street, mind you, where it could be considered a traffic hazard, but the grass in the people’s own yards. Apparently there is some kind of ordinance here that says a car has

Monday Morning Musing

Tomorrow it’ll be two weeks since the surgery to repair the rotator cuff in my shoulder. Before the surgery, I was hoping to be doing much better by this point, but I still have quite a bit of recovery to go. I’m sure that has something to do with old bodies and old bones. 🙂

Since yours truly is currently incapacitated – no, not what you’re thinking – although I wish I were just in the shower. I’m having surgery and leaving you in the good hands of my friend, Slim Randles. Also leaving you with incomplete sentences, but maybe you will find them entertaining. Not as entertaining as Slim

Happy Easter – Happy Spring

Those who have read my blog for a long time know that I love spring and I’m always so happy to see the new flowers and enjoy the warm breezes after the chill of winter. So far this spring, I’ve been limited on what I can do regarding planting new flowers, and I’ve also been

Monday Musing and A Review

My plan for today was to just talk about a book I’m reading that has captivated me for the past week, but then I decided to check a couple of news outlets before settling into the work day. Not a good idea for my plans or my blood pressure.  Because I like to have something

Blogger Fun and a Book Review

First up, how was your weekend? I had relatively good days pain-wise, so I got a bit of work done Saturday and Sunday then played. Saturday was puzzle day. I’d finished this one a week or so ago and left it on the card table to enjoy. It is now back in the box, and
