• Grocery store gremlins

  Today I ran into the local grocery store for a few items and was very pleased to find that it wasn’t that busy!  Bravo!  Still, with no major crowds to contend with, there were two very robust women who always seemed to be wherever I wanted to go.  Okay, let’s just flip my shopping around so I won’t have to keep running into them!  What a brilliant idea and resolution, I thought!   So I sprung ahead 4 or 5 aisles.  Guess what?   I shit [...]

• My Walmart Story -All I wanted was service!

  Jim & I had stopped into Walmart in Keene, NH for our normal supplies.   Being only weeks since losing my kid sister to cancer, I was deep into grief, no where near “myself”…   I headed for the fabric department to pick up some batting for a project I was starting and Jim took the cart as he kindly offered to gather all the household/animal/food stuff we had on our list.  Upon arriving in the department I noticed a woman my [...]

• Have suitcase, will travel

  This morning I was thinking about one of  last years travel adventures.  I arrived at the hotel late, they did not have my reservation for that night, only the next day.  (Arrangements were supposed to be made by someone else, who were actually paying for my room).  Of course I had to pay for the room, and of course it was at a higher rate than quoted on the reservations… I was highly annoyed…  but after a long trip I [...]

• Chris’ new glasses

  So…. my girlfriend sent me this pic a few months ago…..  Do you like my new glasses? she asked.   Well, yah, they are mighty sturdy looking Chris.  
   Do you think they make me look fat?  Well no, in fact the glasses look much larger than you!
  Is the color neutral?  I can wear them with anything, right?   Why yes, if you don’t care that they look like that, I’m sure you won’t mind if they do not coordinate perfectly with your outfit(s).
  This [...]

• I don’t like spiders and snakes….????

  My aussie has been acting sluggish.  His frisbee catching has dwindled down to just a few tosses…I am concerned.  So I decided to take him for a hike in the woods.  So I dressed in my camouflage khakies, oversized sweatshirt, socks and sneakers… just in case the ticks decide to make residence in my bod!   We seem to have an abundance of them right now.  Nasty frigan critters they are.    Well, Brody just loves the woods. Mock 80 [...]

• Tidbets and thoughts on aging

  When I was a newlywed we had rented an apartment adjacent to the landlords.  One morning the Mrs came up to me and said “Would you mind moving your bed to another wall?”  Embarassed, red faced… Why of course!     Now some 30 years later I believe the same thing would happen, only this time because of my snoring!
  When I was 16 I thought I knew everything.  At 48, I wish I knew HALF, now, of what I thought I knew [...]

• match dot com anyone?

  Wed March 17th,
  I’ve been cramming to get 7 or 8 new designs out for JBWood’s Festival this weekend, popping airborne which has surprisingly warned off whatever this bug is that what’s “in”… until today.   Aches and pains, exhaustion have hit.. but still… the festival will happen, and I have bills to pay! So I’m going to take everything slowly today, work for an hour or two and then rest… okay, so I probably won’t sleep, I’ll watch the [...]
