NOVEMBER begins with pet-PEEVES AND BLESSINGS…..

As I sit here getting ready to write, I remember how much I don’t like this MAC that I have been using ever since Steve died in 2016, and I still don’t like it.  I always prefer my PC.  But I have used this one because it was brand new when he died and soContinue reading “NOVEMBER begins with pet-PEEVES AND BLESSINGS…..”

DREAMS DON’T HAVE AN EXPIRATION…

DREAMS DON’’T HAVE AN EXPIRATION! It is easy to dream, living in Paris.  Yes, I get scared. It’s okay to be scared.. That means I am alive- in fact, we’re all scared at first as we grow older. Have you ever……?  …….    Not yet……!!!! Chapter 11 is the chapter that changes my life. ThisContinue reading “DREAMS DON’T HAVE AN EXPIRATION…”

THE SUNDAY FUNNIES – FROM PARIS, WITH LOVE

Do people still have a sense of humor? Both of my sons like to laugh. I sometimes question their sense of humor, but that’s my job. I am their mother. And I seldom believe their political beliefs. But that is true of how I feel about a lot of people. I love all of themContinue reading “THE SUNDAY FUNNIES – FROM PARIS, WITH LOVE”

GOODBYE, SEPTEMBER 2021. I LOVE YOU.

This is on my mind – LOTS. It is a glorious September day in Paris! I woke up!! After being sick all week AND tested, I am happy to report that I passed the test. I had taken two steps forward. This week I took four steps back. People were bowling – at least fourContinue reading “GOODBYE, SEPTEMBER 2021. I LOVE YOU.”

SHIFTS AND CHANGES – CHAPTER 10

Well, this was the week from Hell and back.  I am reeling from shock about “better days ahead” and trying to understand what just happened. In addition, I have had a cold (not Covid) all week.  On antibiotics. With Laryngitis. I don’t know where to start.  This may be a two-parter because I have soContinue reading “SHIFTS AND CHANGES – CHAPTER 10”

HELLOOOO, SEPTEMBER!

Well, here we are in Chapter Ten, and I, for one, need something that feels normal for a change of pace. Football. It is September and that is when I long for football. Games. Brisk weather. Chaos is OK for about five minutes. Then I need something that calms me down. Like changing leaves andContinue reading “HELLOOOO, SEPTEMBER!”

CHAPTER TEN – “THE NEW NORMAL”

Grab a coffee. We are charging ahead, DESPITE all systems saying, “BREAKING NEWS!!!!” We are moving into Janet’s Chapter TEN. When last we spoke, I was flailing around in Chapter 9, adjusting to my new-found life in Paris. Then BAM, BAM, BAM, BAM. It happened. What happened? Chaos. THE NEW NORMAL! Are you talking aboutContinue reading “CHAPTER TEN – “THE NEW NORMAL””

LATE AUGUST 2021 NO COMMENT COMMENTARY FROM PARIS with love……

Some days are not good days for me. I think it has to do with biorhythms. But, I don’t know. So, I am not going to try to write about depression, or family values, or whatever. I have some good topics when I feel like it, and I have been trying to walk in myContinue reading “LATE AUGUST 2021 NO COMMENT COMMENTARY FROM PARIS with love……”

JANET In Paris! Status Update!

I woke up this morning filled with alarm. The good news: I woke up.. The bad news: alarmed. About what? EVERYTHING. You name it, I was alarmed. Then I remembered (as if I ever forget) my blood pressure. Oops. Got to calm down. How ? Log onto social media. Oops. Maybe that wasn’t a goodContinue reading “JANET In Paris! Status Update!”
