Dave and I went to a flea market early Saturday morning. It was going to be a very hot & humid day and thought it best to scope out the tables before the sun got high in the sky.
There were the typical offerings, old silverware, chipped glassware, doilies by the dozen, used toys, cheap t-shirts [...]

Thoughts on guilt and other quandries
Life is hard.
I don’t try to make it harder than it already is, yet somehow, it’s always a challenge.
I guess that’s why we’re here.
To overcome.
To understand.
To conquer.
Challenge?
I laugh in your face!
You are nothing!
HA!
I laugh in the face of challenge! HA!
…At least I’d like to think so. …
Don’t get me wrong, I’m no shrinking violet.
I’m just [...]

escapades ala weekend
I’ve been working hard these days, putting out lots of energy into lots of hours. Saturday was welcomed with bright sun, strong coffee and lots of birds on the feeder. Despite my desire to sleep in a bit, I woke up at 7 anyway. It was gorgeous outside, I didn’t mind.
Not a cloud in the [...]

There are a number of things that I do well, but few compare to my cooking skills. Don’t ask me where or how, all I know is that I can throw a mad bash with leftovers to die for. It’s like being an artist, but instead of color and shape, it’s with flavor and texture. [...]

Weekend
This was one of those unexpected weekends, fun and memorable but without any of that sticky goo.
For the first time in months, I had money in my pocket that was already allocated for bills. Granted, it wasn’t a lot, but it was enough to go and buy myself some birthday goodies: Candles, nothing fancy.
But it’s [...]

The Birthday
In three days I’ll be the oldest I’ve ever been: 32. It’s an odd number, not exactly noteworthy. It’s only slightly more interesting than 31. But not as party-worthy as 30 was, or as monumental as 35 or (gasp!) 40.
So, 32. And what have I accomplished? Where does this age find me? More importantly, [...]

The New
I’ve been thinking of a way to combine all the multitudes of blogs that I have and I think this is it. Thanks to Sherill, I now have one central place to put all my overflow thoughts. Thanks Sherill. So, pull up a chair, take a look around and enjoy. It’s bound to be a [...]

On Dreams
I’m one of those people that dreams a lot. When I wake up, the first thing I do is think about what I just dreamt about. If someone is there, then they get to hear all about it, in odd and vivid detail.
It’s been a ritual for as long as I can remember. None [...]
