Getting old is dangerous…
No, it really is, not only because of diseases or brittle bones and things like those that come as we age but, other things too. I know this is March and she is known as a “windy month” but, today I was walking out my drive to the mailbox to see what wonderful and magical…

Okay, let’s go…..
Do you know how long I have been here? Not as long as Sidney Poitier or Betty White but, it has been awhile. On New Years Day in 1940 around 7 am I was in this warm environment with everything I needed right there at my disposal. All of a sudden, and later I wondered…

Covid
The word “covid” is an acronym. I went online to find out what the letters stood for. What I found was that they took letters from the words “coronavirus disease” to get co, vi, d = covid. They sure didn’t work too hard on that one. What has your life been like since all this…

So, where do we go from here?
Okay, the ones of you reading this right now have made it through nearly a full of a pandemic. It reminds me of having a dreaded disease where the doctors are pumping poison into you that not only works on ridding your body of the disease but destroys other parts, such as, your immune system…

No, I Never….
It has been a while since my last entry. I don’t know why because I have words and thoughts whirling around inside my head all time. I always have a dialog going with someone or something. Sometimes it is with God, my parents and siblings, my children, my pets or even plants. I guess one…

My quarantine
Have you been doing things during this lockdown time that you don’t normally do? Here on the farm there is always plenty to do to fill up my time. I did get my camera out and have been taking more photographs and I have watched a lot of Netflix and shows on Amazon Prime. I…

I wouldn’t have imagined…..
When I was a young, middle-class white girl growing up in a small rural town in Kentucky I didn’t give a lot of thought to how I, or the world around me, would be when I got old. My Grandmother lived with us and she was in her 80’s and 90’s but I never thought…

What Is Your Quest?
Do you have a quest? I thought I did but, something was missing. In the mid-80’s I left my job in Kentucky and moved to California. A lot of people around here thought California was where the”crazies” lived. In order to get a job there I had to send my college transcript, be finger printed…

What do you think about that?
Now that we find ourselves in the situation we are in you may have a lot of time on your hands to think about things. I have two large dogs, one older and one younger, that are in a fenced yard. The younger one is very energetic and needs more exercise or I could never…
