Slim Jims, Cannibis College Courses, and Handsome Hubby

A grab bag of silly tidbits

I’ve got a lot on my mind! Fortunately, none of it is serious or consequential. More random and scattered  … like pollen … without the sneezing or itchy eyes! It’s a grab bag of assorted silly tidbits.  I’m ready to share. Here goes …

The Dreams Keep Coming

Wonderous. Yet, Worrisome

The Dreams Kept Coming

The dreams keep coming, night after night. They are wondrous, but  also worrisome. They are about family members, dead family members.

Middle-Aged Women are In!

We're Hot and Bothered - In a Good Way!

Middle-aged women are in

Middle-aged women are “in.” What a relief, ladies (and the people who love us)! We’re no longer undesirable. No longer untouchable. No longer like the Elf on the Shelf peering down on the action happening under the mistletoe and menorah. We’re the “it” girls at long last. So proclaims Hollywood AND the media. Halleluiah and

A Woman Your Age, Said the Doctor

You Talkin' to Me?

A woman your age

“A woman your age …” said the allergist. She continued, but I wasn’t listening. I couldn’t. I was struck dumb by those words. Surely, she was talking to someone else in the room? Someone old. Not chic, well-groomed, hair-dyed, cool, with-it me? But since nobody else was in the room, she definitely was talking to

Things that Go Beep, Eek, and Shriek in the Night and Day

Never a Dull Moment

Things that go beep

”It” started to beep mid-day Tuesday. Handsome Hubby first heard the sound after the carpet cleaners left. It wasn’t super loud, but it was shrill. And it was constant.

Bedroom Bedlam — Again

Can This Marriage Be Saved?
