I’ve been so excited at the prospect of this new addition to my ce-ment doggo’s celebration of holidays!

In my (mostly misspent) youth, I used to dye my own hair. Mostly varying L’Oreal red shades because, yes, I am definitely worth it. Back then, I had hair almost to my waist, and it took 2 packages to get it all dyed. Now, my hair is shorn, and in its natural state almost totally…

All he had was a sombrero and his chile necklace, so I HAD to get him a serape. The one I ordered from Amazon was teensy (for XL dogs my fat old lady ass). So I got fucking clever (I do that from time to time). I bought a cheap table runner. Cut a hole…

This is how amazing my husband’s memory is, especially when it comes to music. Having been big fans of @Midnight, we are now watching the reborn version @fter Midnight on CBS. Directly following the show (we watch recorded episodes, because old farts like us don’t stay up until after midnight for anything), is the local…

As I’ve been humble bragging for some time, I go to water aerobic classes up to 5 times a week.  I’ve always been a water baby.  When I was a kid my parents couldn’t get me out of the water (lake, creek or pool).  I would stand there with blue lips, teeth rattling shivers, and…

There is a life insurance ad where the family of the deceased (“Mom”) are frantically searching everywhere to find “Mom’s” life insurance policy.

Any of you remember when I first retired? Remember how I said I could only deal with handling one thing a day. One thing. Then I’m done. Yeah. That lasted. I now try to go to water aerobics 5 times a week. Two of those classes are at 8:30 a.m. And I do all of…

I’m back. For now. We’ll see if I can find a way to go back to my better schedule of postings, but who knows? Certainly not me. It’s not for lack of content. I constantly come up with stuff I “should” write about, and then I don’t. So I’m trying, the write it as soon…

Yesterday, we were at a hospital for tests (no worries, everything is fine). We were there, basically, all day.  And walking from hell and back because, of course, the tests were in the middle of the facility, the blood draw was at one end of the facility, and the NP’s office was at the whole…

Okay, in many places, the locals say, “Don’t like the weather? Wait a minute.”  Michigan is one of those places.  And while it may take more than a minute, let me tell you, Michigan weather has no problem turning on a dime and biting you on the ass. Yesterday, February 27th, the temperature got up…
