Are these really my hands?

Okay, am I classy or what?  A post about sitting in the bathroom and starring at my hands.  Hey, it was the sixties.
Well, not really, it was just last night but I can see where you might wonder.  However, I was merely tired and the lighting in the bathroom is very strange. 
I have lost around [...]

My life, South of the Border!

As you all know, last year I threatened to move to Canada if Palin was elected.  Well, maybe you did not know that, but the cat is out of the bag now.  I even went so far as to find out that it is apparently quite easy to move to Canada. 
If it was just not so darn cold [...]

Do Your Ears Hang Low?

I love the new advertisement for ?? is it WalMart?  It may not be the most successful ad, since I cannot remember what it is for, but I love it anyway.
We are all raised with an idea of what beauty is.  My mother tends to use the word pretty for all kinds of things.  “Doesn’t [...]

What will you do for a friend?

We were playing dominoes last night, about the only game they can get me to join them at the game table, and there was a light knock on the door. I think it startled all of us because we had not heard neither a car pull in, nor footsteps on the wooden porch, nor [...]

I left home.  Seriously, I [...]

Why do we need that line in the sand?

I began reading Helen, of Margaret and Helen, during the elections. This 80 something year old lady is just a hoot. Her logic is infallable and she is not afraid to speak her mind. Today’s post was a lot about American’s thinking about exactly who they are and who the other guy is. Margaret and Helen

What I never intend to do.

 In trolling my favorite blogs last night and then watching The Jane Austen Book Club, I noticed there is a dearth of “my favorite things” lists but I am thinking that it just might be time for a  “What I never intend on doing”  list. 
Not everyone shares my “never do’s” .  George Harrison just never wants [...]

Using credit cards to pay medical bills?

Is anyone else bothered by the advertisements, by credit card companies (of course), to tell you what a great deal you can get using your credit card to pay your hospital/medical bills?
Get Real!!!!
I am here to tell you, do not do that.   I was without insurance for years and the thing you do is call [...]

Have we all learned our lesson now?

I try not to lecture on this blog but I just have to say this, so please bear with me.
Susan Boyle, the British singer on Britain’s Got Talent, steps out on stage and people roll their eyes and laugh. At what? At the nerve of a frumpy woman, with frizzy hair, to dare think she [...]
