I am very thankful for the companionship of my cat, Norie. This black cat is one of the joys of my life. She is a source of laughter, companionship, amazement, challenge, and life lessons. Norie trusts me implicitly. She knows I would not hurt her on purpose. I have stepped on her paws or tail … More Thankful for My Cat
I am retired, over 70, and an extrovert who enjoys being around people. But after Covid started I was more careful about who I was with. I ate out or visited with my close friends. So my entertainment included: calling friends; little things to do around my home; donating things I didn’t need; keeping records … More My Entertaining Cat
I am so thankful for my constant companion…my cell phone. When I eat out by myself, I am never really alone. I can contact my friends on several different apps or play different games with my friends or by myself. When I see something beautiful or interesting, I use my phone’s camera to photograph pretty, … More Thankful for the Amazing Smart Cellphone!
I’ve been given two interesting ideas about foods, both from older gentlemen at the grocery store. Being a friendly person who enjoys meeting others at the grocery store, I occasionally speak to others if their attention is on the same product, (usually in the vegetable department), and especially if I feel the other person is … More Open Minds Learn New Ideas
As I sat on my screened in porch one morning I heard the varied songs of my feathered friends. When I heard one near me, I attempted to imitate his message in an effort to be friendly. He replied and then I mimicked his sounds again. Back and forth we went. Suddenly I began to … More My Warbled Mind
Ever since I can remember my family always loved South Carolina peaches. There is just something about their juiciness, sweet, peachy goodness, that sets them apart, for me, from all other peaches. (I have to interject here, that some parts of Georgia and at least some western parts of North Carolina grow the same peaches.) … More South Carolina Peaches and Southern Hospitality
Want some pie? Am I getting older or what? As I sit and watch the TV advertisements of pizza with loads of cheese and fat filled meats (blocked heart arteries waiting to happen) on a pie crust with cheese built into the rim of the crust (more cholesterol), I realize how I used to eat … More Pizza, Fried Chicken, French Fries?? No Thank You.
While shopping at one of my favorite grocery stores, I stopped on one aisle looking at something when a man pushed his cart by me to the end of the aisle. Then he stopped to look at something on the shelf. I finished looking for what I needed and walked past him around the end … More Two More Grocery Store Encounters
Summer is still quite present, but Fall will begin soon enough. The evenings and nights will get cooler, and later, the days will too. The light summer clothes will be put away for the warmer fall slacks and tops to be unpacked. There is always hesitancy about the “changing of the guard” with my wardrobe … More Why Do I Have So Many Clothes!
I’ve been told that I look younger than my almost seventy-four year old face and body show. But I am healthy, at least, I was until my back decided to remind me of my age, along with the 37 years I was a nurse on night shift. The sciatica flares up rarely now, along with … More Who Am I?
