On a very small scale, I find myself thinking about the time I have left on this planet. How will I spend it – “God willing, and the Crick Don’t Rise”. I won’t live to see the death, doom, and destruction that many are predicting for this world. Maybe. I am already seeing the resultsContinue reading “SOME RANDOM THOUGHTS ON A SUNDAY MORNING….”

THIS IS MY WORLD AND WELCOME TO IT – AGAIN!!!
In my Universal Bubble here, I am into my third week of recovery at La Serena Convalescence Center here in Nice, France, after my second knee replacement surgery, on June 27, 2019. A bit of background to connect the dots (Remember Connecting the dots when you were a child?) I had a knee replacement onContinue reading “THIS IS MY WORLD AND WELCOME TO IT – AGAIN!!!”
UPDATE – WONDERFUL MOMENTS aka MIRACLES! -“SIX DAYS IN JUNE, 2019”
YES!! Six wonderful days in June!! I loved every moment. The arrival, the family dinners, and the farewell. Those moments were precious to me. Just knowing they were down the street was comforting to me. Getting to hug them both. Seeing their happy faces in the pictures they were posting for friends back home. ItContinue reading “UPDATE – WONDERFUL MOMENTS aka MIRACLES! -“SIX DAYS IN JUNE, 2019””
PARTY OF ONE
I read an article the other day that included a “Loners’ Manifesto.” So, I made a note to write about it because I can be a reluctant socializer. Steve was the same way. We both preferred staying home. Now that he is gone, I am still a reluctant socializer. From time to time, I haveContinue reading “PARTY OF ONE”
Wonderful Moments aka Miracles!
Today is one of those wonderful moments when the weather, the world, and the apartment are all going haywire, but that is OK!! My son and daughter-in-law are coming to Nice!! He and Jean will only be here for a few days, but that is OK. I can’t do what I used to be ableContinue reading “Wonderful Moments aka Miracles!”
UP THE HILL!
The Park. The Monastery. The garden. The ancient city. It is all there – up the hill from my house. A mere bus ride away. In the park, there is a track that circles it. Runner, walkers, bicyclists, all use the track. And, in doing so, they pass the remains of the ancient Roman city ofContinue reading “UP THE HILL!”
ACTIVE OR PASSIVE VOICE – PLANS!
This is one of those days when I will write something, but as I start this blank document, I am not sure where this post is going. There are a LOT of things I DON’T want to write about, so let’s see what I include. For no good reason, I feel good this morning. ThatContinue reading “ACTIVE OR PASSIVE VOICE – PLANS!”
THIS IS MY WORLD AND WELCOME TO IT!
Yesterday was France’s “Labor Day”, aka La Fête du Travail. It was a day when I did a lot of nothing. A meeting with my landlord in the morning, but after that, a lot of nothing. It was a public holiday and a key day for the celebration of workers’ rights all over the country,Continue reading “THIS IS MY WORLD AND WELCOME TO IT!”
SOME PÂQUES THOUGHTS – 2019 IN NICE, FRANCE
At this time of the year, I find my soul searching for answers – something definite that I can hold onto. And my mind works overtime, waiting for the rest of me to catch up. (sigh). So, today – a férié in France (holiday), I decided to write this week’s blog. And, I am filledContinue reading “SOME PÂQUES THOUGHTS – 2019 IN NICE, FRANCE”
REMEMBERING Agnès Varda
In the 1980’s when I was working as an actress in film and television in Los Angeles, I joined Women In Film. During my active time as a member, I served on the Board of Directors and ran for President against Marion Rees!! Needless to say, she won!!! Haha. But, I did it anyway. IContinue reading “REMEMBERING Agnès Varda”
