Week 119! I’m writing this with fingers and hands that have been viciously attacked! I have little wounds all over. Jack, you say? No. Nigel wielding his cane like a sword? Double no! I had some dead branches in one of my rose bushes and was cutting them out of it. I didn’t feel anything …
Week 118! Well, life has this funny way of smacking you upside the head and saying, “Hey, let’s change things up!” As you know, I’ve been undergoing treatment for dry eyes as well as gunky glands along my bottom lids. I’ve had three IPL treatments and use prescription eye drops. I had a regular check …
Week 117! Here’s your PSA for the day. My oldest helps out some elderly people with their computer problems. It seems one of his “clients” was scammed and turned over control of her computer to some scammers. My son can usually fix that remotely. This time, however, as fast as he could remove the malware, …
Week 116! Would you believe it was 95 (35C) here yesterday and barely made it into the 70s (21C) today? It’s a little damp, but, gosh, it’s really nice! It makes you feel like fall is just around the corner when, in reality, we’re just starting August which is usually wicked hot! September isn’t much …
Week 115! I do hope wherever you live, you’re staying cool (or warm). We are under a heat advisory for the next day or so. Today, the real feel was 105 (40.5C). I feel so badly for anyone who has to work outside in this weather. But, the same goes for very cold weather, too. …
Week 114! Let’s just get this out of the way. It’s hot and humid here in Central Indiana. It’s in the 90s (33C) with high humidity. It’s like walking through a pool of Jello™ that hasn’t set yet. But, the good news is I’ve started a walking regime. For many years, Nigel and I used …
Week 113! First, I’d like to say my heart is broken for the parents, friends, and families of those lost in the floods in Texas. I cannot imagine the loss, the frustration, and the fear. I’ve been praying for comfort and resolution for the people. This has been one of those weeks when we had …
Week 112! Life has a way of smacking you upside the head and saying, “Wake up!” Last week, we featured Patrick of Adventures in Weseland. Sadly, a friend of Sue’s notified her to say Patrick had passed away. My good friend, Shelbee, wrote a beautiful post about Patrick. I encourage you to read her post. …
Week 111! My friends, you are reading the words of a full-fledged docent! Yes, my graduation tour was today, and it went well! I received my lanyard and will soon be able to lead tours at the museum. I look forward to creating more tours about all different kinds of art. Look for a post …
Week 110! Y’all, we had another tornado warning just the other night. I had Nigel get into his wheelchair, and we huddled in the hallway. I threw several throw pillows on him and pulled a featherbed out for me and Jack. The storm passed quickly and wasn’t near as bad as the last one. But, …
