The snowy tree across from the bus stop. Kind of a sad looking tree with branches hacked off to make room for the modern power lines. Funny how we are now, at this late date, getting the media alert about global warming. Now, when it’s frighteningly obvious we have put the planet into danger by our thoughtlessness or self-centredness.… Read the rest
I can’t breathe, I’m coughing, I ache everywhere and I feel so drained I could be sucked through the floor at any moment. I had a fever but luckily I found some Tylenol to take care of that. Whoever did this to me… I curse you and all your germs. I really don’t know how I got sick when I’ve almost been living like a hermit.… Read the rest

St. Patrick’s Day is one of my favourite, under appreciated holidays. My Grandmother was Irish. She and my Aunt Alice and the other sisters were born in County Cork. I’ve never been there. The holiday is always a special time for me, to think about family and all the stories I heard about Ireland and the old traditions.… Read the rest
It’s going to be another exciting day of grocery shopping tomorrow. I am looking at the current financial situation and I might be able to do the going out for breakfast thing too.
