SOME RANDOM THOUGHTS AND NO MEMES FOR THE END OF JUNE 2021

WHAT IS ON MY MIND? Paris and Moi. Yes, Paris is opening up and it is fun with all of the activities, and I plan to do what I want to and can.  I have a lot of energy and desire and like the organizations of AAWE and WICE.  They have activities that look funContinue reading “SOME RANDOM THOUGHTS AND NO MEMES FOR THE END OF JUNE 2021”

JUST FOR FUN – NO COMMENT COMMENTARY

Today is June 20, 2021, Father’s Day, the longest day of the year, and the beginning of Cancer (my rising sign), so I am a happy camper. First of all, a SHOUT OUT to my two sons, Craig and Blake, for being good fathers in spite of their lack of training or a good exampleContinue reading “JUST FOR FUN – NO COMMENT COMMENTARY”

AUGUST (sigh)

August 2020.  August has become a difficult month for me.  “Bittersweet”.  I think that is the correct use of that word.   First of all, it was full of birthdays when I was growing up.  Lots of good friends had birthdays in August.  As my friends and I have grown apart through the years, I  beganContinue reading “AUGUST (sigh)”

STARTING OVER…….AGAIN……….

I am starting over.  Today is August 2, 2020, and it is a new day for me.  Why?  OK, here goes….  Some of this is repetitive to those who “follow” Jayspeak.  But, a lot of it is not. That said, during July, I had a bunch of tests plus an MRI to find out whyContinue reading “STARTING OVER…….AGAIN……….”

JOHN LEWIS, DAN RATHER, AND JESSE JEWELL CHICKENS Ramblings…..

As you know (if you have been keeping up with the news), our democracy is under attack.  And many of us are weary and afraid of what’s to come. I am.  Irrational anger. Vicious hate. Meanness.  Greed.  Someone said that we can still be friends, even if we don’t agree.  Uh, no.  And, no oneContinue reading “JOHN LEWIS, DAN RATHER, AND JESSE JEWELL CHICKENS Ramblings…..”

THROUGH MY EYES…..

THROUGH MY EYES…..  Whenever I see something new or learn something new, I try to think about how it applies to my life?  I ask myself “Why is this significant to me?”  That is the only way I seem to be able to relate.  I must make it personal in some way.  I do theContinue reading “THROUGH MY EYES…..”

Taking a Knee In Support

Last night, I was not having a good night and, as a result, I had trouble going to sleep. And, I kept reading about events happening in Paris, London, Russia, Iran, Germany, China, and in the USA. until I managed to work up a high state of anxiety and despair.  And, somehow, when I readContinue reading “Taking a Knee In Support”

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!”

MEET LILLIAN! – Revised!

MEET LILLIAN. Who?  Why? Lillian is on my mind this week.   She was my aunt.  My mother’s sister.  I wrote about her over last weekend, but that post was too long, and Lillian “got lost in the shuffle.”  So, now, Lillian has a post of her own!  She matters because she mattered.  A woman beforeContinue reading “MEET LILLIAN! – Revised!”
