I keep taking a step at a time and scaring myself each time. Haha! This week has been a “doozy” (Family expression), saying to myself, “Well, when Isis attacks Paris after the Battle of Normandy, I hope I am not shopping at Chanel that day!” I keep thinking that cooler heads will prevail. NOT. A “friend”Continue reading “RED LETTER DAYS”

ENLARGE YOUR UNIVERSE – – – SAY “YES!
***Cliché’s have always been a part of my vocabulary. Why? Because Daddy was ALWAYS saying a cliché, or a catchy slogan, or a joke, or a byline, or a ….. You get the picture. One of his favorites was “The grass is not greener on the other side of the fence.” And “Go to it!”,Continue reading “ENLARGE YOUR UNIVERSE – – – SAY “YES!”
“THREE YEARS LATER – Remembering…
I know. I know. I said I was not going to write anything today. And, here I am. But, I have some thoughts that I want to share. Plus, writing brings me comfort. And, if you find this a tad “schmaltzy” (is that a word…), thank you in advance for bearing with me. Three yearsContinue reading ““THREE YEARS LATER – Remembering…”
MY BEST FRIEND
One Week from today, on August 31, 2016 (3 years ago), I lost my best friend. His name was/is Steve Orlandella (August 11, 1950 – August 31, 2016). Today, I plan to share some thoughts with you. I won’t be writing about him next week. I plan to use that day to remember. Not write. Continue reading “MY BEST FRIEND”
“TRUTH” AND CONSEQUENCES!
When I start out to write a post on the weekends, I usually lack inspiration. However, during the week, that is all I can think about – saying “that should be a blog” or “great idea for a post!!” This week, I was all excited about expounding on “truth”, as in “There is SO muchContinue reading ““TRUTH” AND CONSEQUENCES!”
AUGUST!!
Has anyone written a song about August? At the moment, I cannot recall one. I don’t know how I feel about August. This is not new news. It has never been a month that I look forward to – like June. Or September. Or October. Or April. And, now, it causes me much angst. ItContinue reading “AUGUST!!”
UPDATE! HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS!
I am now back home, trying to get things back to “normal”. I was gone for a month. That is a long time for plants, cleaning, and a cat. I was lucky enough to have a friend to look after the cat and to water the plants, but we had extraordinary heat hit the areaContinue reading “UPDATE! HOME IS WHERE THE HEART IS!”
SOME RANDOM THOUGHTS ON A SUNDAY MORNING….
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….”
ANTHONY BOURDAIN (1956 – 2018)
I came upon this article in a unusual way – by way of Facebook, in the middle of the night, unable to sleep in an uncomfortable bed at my Convalescence Center after my second knee surgery on June 27th. (The Universe is teaching me the art of patience AGAIN and AGAIN! Patience is not myContinue reading “ANTHONY BOURDAIN (1956 – 2018)”
THE SIXTH OF JULY! CARTOONS & NO COMMENTARY!!
BACK WHEN (1978) when I was having a love affair with the theatre and acting, I saw a play at the Mark Taper Forum in Los Angeles. It made a lasting impression on me. I thought about it a lot yesterday. Actually, ever since then, I think of it every fifth of July – theContinue reading “THE SIXTH OF JULY! CARTOONS & NO COMMENTARY!!”
