Miscellaneous things that I post. Could be deep. Could be shallow. Could be sad. Could be funny. Might even be true.
Our dog Joy had puppies this week-end. Now she has nine squirmy, noisy, pooping, peeing, totally self-absorbed little fur balls causing her enormous amounts of grief and uncomfort. Even so, she lays still for hours on end, bearing their constant grunts and squeals as thy crawl all over her, biting, sucking, and pulling in places […]
We recently returned from a trip to see Niagara Falls. It’s hard to find the right words to describe what it was like. Standing in front of the falls, hearing the constant thunder of the falling water, feeling the mist in my face, and seeing the massive roiling liquid sheet spilling over the edge

I have a cold. Snotty nose, stuffy head, scratchy throat, miserable nights trying to sleep and breathe, and all that stuff. It’s a nuisance and an inconvenience, but it’s nothing life changing. I’ve learned over the years that colds come and go. There is nothing you can do but take some medicine, drink plenty of
My printer is broken. It comes on when I push the on button. It receives the print commands from my computer. It even prints beautiful pictures… if you can get it to feed the paper. That’s the part that is broken. The part that pulls in the paper. So, I am spending too much time
