This picture was taken so long ago. My father had cancer. But, at that time, he did not tell me. Not even through a long distance phone call. I finally knew, was told, in his last four years or so. I lived far away from him. The joy and love between a grandchild and a grandparent--indescribable really. Just as much a pleasure to see and listen to their … [Read more...]
Live & Let Live [28]
We journal our lives in various ways.We're family-- different kinds of people that make up our Country, this great Nation that is still lacking. Unbelievably lacking.One brotherhood, friends or foes. Friend or foe.Sick of the boasting-- the transfer of blame-- fibbing; both small hands caught, fingers jammed in the cookie jar. Hmph; onomatopoeia in ribs. Heart is fragile … [Read more...]
Baptist Deviled Eggs
I finally have a burst of energy after being in a sucker-match with the virus for approximately 2 1/2 weeks if not longer. But I didn't know I had it; thought it was a spring allergy/spring cold. It intensified. I'm not over it yet; still have moments of wondering, "what the hell"... But today was okay for the most part of the day, considering. And guess what? I'm … [Read more...]

COVID-19 Quarantine & Curfew
Are you currently residing in one of the cities that's under a curfew from 10 pm to 5 am? My dog's got to do her business when she better--since she insists on going for a short walk for TP purposes. Been called, "crazy" yet? "Crazy" for having a different point of view? "Crazy" for having a dry sense of humor that nobody catches? "Crazy" for typing about it since you … [Read more...]
For Pete’s Sake
I'm not going to pretend here. I'm not going to be that 'perfect' little girl that I'm expected to be, as though I'm suppose to be four. I'm a full grown woman. I don't belong to an organization to the point that I'm owned by one. What I write and speak is not constituted by any group of people that I happen to be affiliated with in any way. I don't have to choose … [Read more...]

There are no words, no very words to say how this day has gone... When will we get those simple days back, again. I've closed more chapters today. All of this in our world, has clarified so much-- friendships that were thought genuine but not-- and it comes out "in the wash"... people's insensitivity to the dyingpeople not caring where they go, and still traveling … [Read more...]

Maybe it's a black and white world, after all; that this is the new normal-- no color, no gray matter. Who really knows.Who should speak... ? The truth about religion addiction, omg... scary shit.The hoarding still empties store shelves.

What is real, what is not.Why don't we just-- put "fake news" to rest for now... who's tired of hearing the expression after all this time--serious issues need addressed right now.The Malaria drug to fight the virus while trying it on Americans is a RISK-- ask … [Read more...]
