Birthday Bash
Happy birthday to me and Happy birthday, U.S.A. Company is slowly drifting in to help me celebrate my birthday, and it is always great fun to have some of my kids here with me. I know it is a day early for a Fourth Of July blog post, but bear with me. I plan to […]
Weekend Reading
Today I’d like to let you know about a couple of new books and great deals. And what goes better with a good book than a nice cup of tea. Please help yourself. I like mine with a bit of cream and honey, and I love this teacup. My mother-in-law collected pretty teacups and I […]
Let the Mowing Begin
Our friend Slim Randles is back as today’s Wednesday’s Guest with some fun from a couple of his friends. Enjoy the read and grab a cookie if you’d like. I have lots. Herb Collins was back out in the yard again Saturday. The noise made the neighbors go to the windows and peek out to […]
Free Short Story
Before I tell you about the free story, I want to share some pictures of flowers that I have taken over the past few weeks. Some are easily recognized. Who doesn’t know a pansy when they see one? Really? There are people who have never seen one? Oh, right, I guess I didn’t think about […]

Shall We Dance?
I am so pleased to have Slim Randles back as today’s Wednesday’s Guest with this thoughtful peace about dancing. I love to dance, always have. If there is music playing, I am moving. There is something so…. just right… about making that connection of body to music, and Slim sums it all up so well. […]
Free Audio Book
The audio version of Open Season has been a long time coming, but I think it has been worth the wait. The narrator did an outstanding job, and the only hitch has been with my being so new to the Amazon ACX program and stumbling along as I tried to get my part of the […]

Monday Fun and a Free Book
Thought I’d start the day with a fun meme. I love this little kitty, and she can steal my mouse any time she wants. Things are getting busier and busier for me as I get closer to my moving date, which will be sometime right after Christmas. Adding all the things that have to be […]
