A Wisp of a Thought

Outside the stars iridescently shimmer in the heavens as the Waxing Gibbous moon makes its trek across the hospitable sky.  Temps are in the mid 30’s making our night walk a bit chiller than last night but still enjoyable.  Diligent homeowners spent their days raking up huge piles of leaves that the boys enjoy romping through.  I know, probably [...]

Awake Again and Again and Again

No matter how often I have tried to get some sleep yesterday and today, I haven’t been able to get more than a few hours each time.  It is now 5am and I am up again.  Was also up at 1am and 3:30 am and didn’t get a nap yesterday as I had planned.
The dogs [...]

Today’s Truth of the Matter

is that I don’t want to do this anymore.  I don’t want to be stuck at this desk, looking at these monitors, trying to fill hours and dealing with all the crap everyone dishes out.  I’m sick of it – weary and disenchanted.  As one of my friends in Florida would say when things went [...]

Kind of Strange

I was told by someone recently that it is a little strange and surprising that I have never contemplated suicide.  Not that I have a reason to but these thoughts do seem to cross most depressed people’s minds now and then.  But not mine.
I have a favorite quote from Agatha Cristie that I think sums [...]

Dogs at the Dog Park

There were several dogs at the dog park today.  We started off in the small dog pen so Baxter could get all his long distance running in without me having to worry about him interacting with the larger dogs.  Bennie is afraid of the bigger dogs so that isn’t a problem with him – he [...]

Tigers at the Brink

Tigers have long been a favorite big cat of mine – they are graceful, stunning and firmly on their way to extinction.  Of the eight subspecies of tigers, three have met with total extinction in my life time. This knowledge grieves me greatly.  I will never understand the human races need to destroy everything in its [...]

About Me

Today for just a moment I felt like I was really on to something.  I felt like I was right there, on the verge of a great enlightenment but it just won’t come forth and I don’t know why.  Maybe I’m trying to hard.  Do you ever have that feeling like there is something your [...]

Ridiculous

I made a pot of broc and cheddar soup but something is missing – I can’t tell what it is.  It makes me so mad.  The first time I made it, I thought it was delicious – almost Panera Bread quality but not quite.  Since then, even though I do exactly the same thing, it [...]

Not feeling so well…

It started about an hour ago – bad headache, upset stomach, and the feeling like I could vomit any moment.  Not sure why or what it is causing it.  Before it started I felt pretty hungry but don’t anymore.  I ate soup earlier today (around 3pm) so don’t know why I’d be hungry again already…it [...]

Thank Goodness

My friend Holly is out of surgery and, while in a lot of pain, seems to be doing alright. I’m very relieved – I was worried about her. I wish I was down in Florida for her.
I am so bad at keeping in touch even though someone is very special to me. [...]
