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 […]
Sending a warm greeting to all my friends and family members who are celebrating the day. It will be a quiet one for me as the two most important men in my life, my father and my husband, are now playing Euchre together in heaven. Being by myself is okay, though, as I’m still in

For as long as Slim Randles has shared Dud’s struggles with writing his novel, I’ve chuckled and commiserated. Chuckled because Dud goes to some extremes in his thinking, and commiserated because I feel his pain. Plotting a story isn’t easy. Grab a cup of coffee and help me welcome Slim and Dud as today’s Wednesday’s
Considering the storms and rains that are washing over much of my neck of the woods, as well as a few other necks, this offering from Slim Randles is perfect. Grab a cup of your beverage of choice to go with these donuts and enjoy… We watched the thunderstorm growing, building, off to the west.
