Sunday The day started out cold but it warmed up nicely. I was out pulling up pepper and basil plants when DD called. It’s so sad when the summer days are gone and winter is upon us but I won’t wish my life away. I’ll be patient and wait for spring. I should be able [...]

Last week, I put out an APB on Sharon, the winner of the third giveaway. I also sent her a second notice via email. It worked. I heard from her and learned that there had been a turn of events. From what I gathered, she felt someone else would benefit more from the book than [...]

Sunday Last night was another weird dream night. This time, one of the doctors wanted a boiled egg. I offered him mine (?) but he refused to take it, not wanting to deprive me of it. I told him it was okay because I still had my peanut butter (again “?”). Now, what makes me [...]
