What I have on my mind today is NOT the news. I am so alarmed and depressed about the news that I need to help myself “get a grip”. I am walking and thinking and planning and thinking until I have OVERTHOUGHT everything. Ouch. I have time. I am in Paris. I am still alive,Continue reading “NOW! WHERE WAS I? IT WAS 1957…… AND, I WAS IN PARIS, FRANCE, AND I……”

EXPERIMENTS IN CREATIVITY!
I am excited because all of this zooming has given me an idea. And, today is the beginning. This video was /is an experiment for me to work out technical difficulties with iMovie, YouTube, and WordPress. So, I will be getting all of it better as I learn more about it. But, here itContinue reading “EXPERIMENTS IN CREATIVITY!”
MAY FAVORITE PHOTOS OF MINE – PARIS! 6e AND 5e!
Today, I will treat you to some of my favorite photos that I have taken during the last two weeks of lockdown . I am going to miss the empty streets without a lot of people and clear skies with birds chirping. Yesterday, I went into some new streets in 5e and encountered some unpleasantContinue reading “MAY FAVORITE PHOTOS OF MINE – PARIS! 6e AND 5e!”
THINK ABOUT IT!!! (Revised Edition)
I have revised this post because I want to flesh it out some more. As I said before, this week, I am beginning to think ahead, as I reflect. From where I am sitting, I have a lot of questions. This one may require another cup of coffee. Settle in. The lockdown is still outsideContinue reading “THINK ABOUT IT!!! (Revised Edition)”
THE NEW NORMAL
On my mind this Sunday morning, as I sit in my Studio in the heart of Paris, I am reflecting and rambling (and defrosting the refrigerator at the same time haha). Take a look at the photograph featured above. I have used my very favorite shot as the “featured image photograph”. What do you see? Continue reading “THE NEW NORMAL”
ON MY MIND THIS MORNING……

“THAT WAS THEN; THIS IS NOW”
This is what is on my mind this morning. Something happened this week that made me very angry. And, hurt. So, when I woke up, I wrote down some words that kept running through my mind – THAT WAS THEN. THIS IS NOW. The “then” I once knew – no longer exists. This is NOW. TheContinue reading ““THAT WAS THEN; THIS IS NOW””
EASTER 2020 – “CLEAN SLATES”
THIS EASTER WEEKEND, I AM working with “a clean slate”. What do I mean? Welllll, I am still “in lockdown”. I cannot go out of the house without an “Attestation” (paper document) or I get fined (if I get stopped by the police). France is not doing well with its number of cases andContinue reading “EASTER 2020 – “CLEAN SLATES””
OUTSIDE MY DOOR – ONE MILE; 40 MINUTES!
BREAKING NEWS!!! I got stopped by the police again this morning! France has tightened restrictions regarding jogging and walking for exercise because people (young and old) were just going about their business, as usual, as far as getting together to exercise, laugh, and enjoy the spring weather in Paris. Damn! I have waited to doContinue reading “OUTSIDE MY DOOR – ONE MILE; 40 MINUTES!”
WE ALL HAVE A STORY

Candler Street Grammar School. My teens. My family of origin. My ancestors. My auntsContinue reading “WE ALL HAVE A STORY”
