Good Friday
Friday, April 10, 2020 10 comments It was good. Odd, of course. Cold. We even had snowflakes! DD2 showed up at the door, came right in with the dog who immediately jumped into my lap and sneezed in my face! She had necessities to pick up since they moved, I get that. Bu... Read more
Eat like Miss Ruth, worth a try.
Thursday, April 09, 2020 12 comments By 6 AM I was in the grocery, covered with my mask, new list in hand and a strange credit card in my pocket. I shopped for my neighbor Ruth and her caregiver Alicia. Home delivery isn't working well. She's chomping at the bit now that the s... Read more
My not much turned into a lot!
Wednesday, April 08, 2020 14 comments DH opted to walk with me for a change. It was slower than my usual pace and that was a good thing! We investigated dead branches hanging from trees and will check them out in a few days after big winds come through. Spring is spring cleaning. ... Read more
Nothing to see here...
Tuesday, April 07, 2020 12 comments It's a "bits and bobs" day. Cleaning. A bit of gardening. DH is trying to make something to hold down my soaker-sprinkler hose. Last year I kept uncurling it. Organized the freezer as I lost control of "first in, first out". I picked up a ... Read more
Walking my neighborhood. Flower edition.
Monday, April 06, 2020 17 comments It seems just yesterday I had mentioned I wasn't feeling so "Sparky" and had not blogged much. Now you're stuck with me daily! Against doctors advice, I HAVE to walk to get some cardio. I think perhaps I will see a knee replacement sooner tha... Read more

Just take those old records off the shelf

What did you listen to in 1979? 1995 or gulp, 1963?

Bonus blog: How to and not to shop. Long but I hope you read my observation.
Thursday, April 02, 2020 25 comments I was so disheartened from my 6 ft distance of the person at the self-serve register in front of me. Here is NOT how to shop. Pardon the description of the very nice well-intentioned lady. She had the big hood of her coat pulled over her he... Read more
I'm temporarily bored.
Thursday, April 02, 2020 13 comments What to do when I've run out of ideas. The house is clean and the food is prepared. Tired of TV. I tried to find TP and hand sanitizer at a local out-of-the-way store this morning. I was the only customer! No luck but I bought a coloring bo... Read more
