Top-down weather
Finally it was nice enough this past weekend to put the top down on my convertible! I just never get enough of driving with the top down!
Happy Birthday, Katie #25!
Today is a hard day for me. It should be a happy day, and it is, I guess, but also sad. My eldest daughter turned 25 today, but I won't be celebrating with her. She's the daughter who cut me out of her life. I still sent her a gift, cuz, ya know, if I …
Dogs of Blogs – March 19, ’19
This was my baby Tucker - he passed a few years ago, but I SOOOO miss him! You could do anything to that dog - clip his toenails, clean his ears, pull burrs out of his fur ... he was just a reddish-brownish furball of love. At the time of this photo, he was blind …

Feelin’ free
It's not always that I feel peace in my life --- there always seems to be some kind of stressor, so much negativity swirling around, indecision on my part as to what my life should look like in the future. But yesterday, in talking with one of my bosses, I had the sense of complete …
“why can’t we be friends …?”
My tuxedo kitties Georgie Clooney (left) and Maggie Mae (right) have never been "friends." Contact between these two usually looks like a kitty-MMA bout. Poor Georgie has long claw-scars on his nose. Well, this morning, this is the sight I saw .... 2 kitties laying next to each other with no biffity-biff kitty boxing. Mark …
Long weekend in Chicago ‘burbs
This past weekend, my sister and I did a micro-road-trip to the Chicago suburbs. My sis had a training seminar to attend on Monday & Tuesday and invited me to tag along for a chance to see my kids in the Elgin, IL area. Saturday morning we headed out in Christine's "Bertha" (Nissan Pathfinder) up …
