Week 133! My youngest granddaughter had a concert tonight. We are under a winter weather advisory calling for lots of snow. She lives about 45 minutes away, via a heavily traveled interstate. And, I was leaving after it got dark. My cataracts were saying, “No way! Are you nuts?” My heart said, “You get your …
It’s time for another Global Writing Challenge prompt. Our current membership consists of MK’s Adventures in Style, Deb’s World, Suzy Turner, Rosie Amber, Within a World of My Own, and me. Rosie chose this month’s theme. I love the Global Writing Challenge because it’s always fun to see what others come up with…the responses rarely repeat. On top of the …
Thank you! Thank you to all of you who gave me suggestions for my upcoming tour. It’s not until January so I’m still mulling it around in my head. Y’all are so creative and gave me a lot to think about. I will, for sure, let you know the theme and title once I figure …

SIA challenges people to find inspiration in different art works, create looks based upon that art work, and share them with the curator for that piece. Shelbee is this week’s curator …
Week 132! Happy Thanksgiving to those of you who are in the States! Are you in a turkey coma right now? For the last several years, we have bought a smoked turkey from a restaurant. It’s delicious, and the guesswork of cooking a turkey is gone. As per usual, I messed up on the few …

Well, the plants that I’m going to try to winter over have been prepared…sort of. My jumbo upright elephant ear is in the garage on some kind of moving thing Nigel had. I can move it in and out of the garage if the weather gets warmer. Lately, it’s been very rainy which is welcome …
