Yes I know this is a day late; but when I first wrote it, it was more than 3 full pages long.  A cooling off period and some major editing was required – and now I’ve edited it and it’s 4 pages long!  Sorry, but I just could not contain myself. Read on, if you…

My advice to people who are looking to make friends is always – go volunteer at your local community theater.  I don’t care what your skills are; they will be happy to see you and happy to put you to work.  You don’t even have to set foot onstage, if you don’t want to –…

That’s all I would like right now.  Some peace and quiet. Our orange tabby Murphy is a chatty cat.  He is more than that, sometimes he is a whiny, noisy, ass-hat cat  He is supposed to be the one with gentle brains. And I think that’s an apt description – however, he just never shuts…

And yes, I know, I’m posting this on Sunday. I’ve been in a mood; but this cheered me up some. Nunsense III, Country Western Jamboree.

Did you know that not all pita bread has pockets? I was this many days old when I learned this. I made sure to pick up pita bread during my shopping because I was making chicken salad (delish – by the way – chicken, mayo, seasonings, finely diced apple and finely diced green apple) sandwiches…

I recently started taking the hormone suppressant Anastrozole (as part of my breast cancer treatment).  Barring any surprises, I will be on this drug for the next five years.  That’s right, count ’em – five years! I was scared to death about taking this drug because of its numerous side effects.  Good news – I…

I am choosing to celebrate Labor Day by not laboring over a new blog post!
