Times Are Weird

These times are weird
Germs are everywhere to be feared
Division by media is engineered
Old friendships are broken and smeared

Yellow Carpet

I took the above photo on Sunday.

Four Days for Goldilocks

Air conditions are off. Heat pumps and furnaces are off. Goldilocks is enjoying this “just right” weather. Everything is quiet, and I hear something rustling in the brush.

Fascinating

Shh, listen. Can you hear that? It sounds like a babbling brook.

The nearest creek is six blocks away, yet the trickling sounds like a stream circling the entire house.

I follow my ears to find where this is coming from.

Bored?

If you’re bored, come live where I live. There’s never a dull moment.

Just a quick little post.

Disoriented

I woke up on Monday morning (yesterday) feeling very disoriented. Why?
Take a look at the photo below that I posted as my header back in January.

Sock It To Me

A Refrigerator Saga

Just popping in to give an update to those following along.

An Unusual Plot

Happy Tuesday!

Remember last week when I shared the bare photos of the creek near my house? I had taken those photos on April 30th. The above picture is taken in the same spot as those others, and I took this one on May 17th. Voila! Magic.

So, I’ve been tossing around talking to my favorite bloggers about the novel I’m working on.

Real Life Magic

On April 30th I walked along the creek near our house, and below is what it looked like.

Two Hundred Words Tuesday

How is your 2018 going so far? I hope it’s superb and gets even better. I like that word “superb.” Don’t recall ever using it before.

Can you Keep a Secret?

It happened when I was all by myself.

Well, I wasn’t completely alone. My dog, Max was with me. He’s the only one who knows the truth about his crazy fifty-something-year-old biped mom.

Epic Fail or Epic Success

I thought I’d write about my adventurous eclipse experience before it becomes irrelevant, so I quickly put together this post this morning.

One Week Contest

I have both good news and bad news. I’ll share the bad news first, but hang in there for the good news.

Extra Ordinary

I had a wonderful Memorial Day weekend with family and friends. I can’t express how overjoyed I was not not to have to drive 100 to 1,200 miles to be with loved ones.

What’s the Difference?

You knew it was coming…my observations on life and the differences between the two states where I’ve lived. First half of my life I lived in Illinois . . .

If One More Person Asks …

… what (the hell) did you move to Illinois from Florida for … they’ll be a viral video of a short, middle-aged lady screaming at someone like a raving maniac.

Drops

It’s a Bug’s World

I got to smell my favorite flowers for the first time in twenty-seven years. Lilacs. We moved back north just in time for the colorful spring.

Farewell to the Artists

Today I thought we’d have a little fun with photography and art.
