FAMILY CALORIES

I’ve been twisting my brain around to find a topic I could write about. Oh, I could write about allergies…no fun at all. I could write more about American architecture, weaving, pottery, ar...

SMOKE AND FOG

The winds have been blowing smoke from the fires toward the coast. Smoke from all the fires up and down the west coast. We stay inside breathing shallowly except on pool days or doctor day...

GRATITUDES

I’m no longer mourning my on 9/11 birthday. I’m taking phone calls, smiling, talking, and not so miserable that I can’t take part. G’s letting me travel on this day via a fun restaurant or two...

PHOTOSHOP

I’ve been having fun relearning how to use Photoshop. Poor George. “Where do I find….?” Is the often asked question these days. He’s been very patient with me. If I could only retain what he...

IT'S A HOLIDAY

I don’t know about you, but I am inundated by appointment reminders from my doctors. On line. They jam up my inbox and give me pause about all the paperwork to be filled out. I should be a...

FOODSTUFFS

Yesterday and today I made all my yearly checkup appointments. Sise for the blocked arteries, the heart doc, teeth to get the new partial correctly fitted, and the derm doc. I can do all b...

THE WEEK IN REVIEW

Poor G woke feeling very old this morning. It took a while for my brain to process the information in context. The Shingles shot the doc wanted him to get got him. Me, I look like Mrs. Ins...

AN ECONOMIC REALITY

Yes, I realize dealerships are hurting during this pandemic. Few of us are driving, and fewer still are getting in accidents. Repair income has dwindled to nonexistance. Although Trump ins...

A DAY IN THE PARK

Local Hispanics use Balboa Park to the fullest. Many girls celebrate their Quinceanera’s in the most beautiful spots or favorite spots in the Park. Today this is a celebration of the girl’s...

ORTS FOR THE BLOG

• The San Diego Maritime Museum reopened yesterday. George thought that marching around on the old wooden decks would be hard on our joints, so we didn’t go. I am always inspired by the i...

SHOWERS

Yes, I am in the pool twice a week now. It’s as if age, arthritis, and pain aren’t hovering under my skin when I am in the water. I got up in the middle of Biden’s speech last night, and it ...

DISNEY WONDER

G and I spent the early morning being disappointed in the Jane Pauley CBS Sunday Morning show. Two minutes of ads were followed by less program….everytime. Less time with “moments of natu...

A GATHERING

Instead of being all alone as I was day after day at the nursing home after Covid began, I have George. When he just visited me at Balboa, the first nursing home, we would sit together holding...

PERFECTION

We got an email from the Y telling us the pool would be open and to make an appointment. He didn’t do it right away, so we ended up in the shallow end. It was perfect. For 45 minutes I did...

AFTER

Tidy, much more so now. Thread is mixed in with the books as are pens and those ever useful measuring implements. My desk is a bit more of a mess with loose papers here and there topped by m...

GO TO

There’s a chill breeze blowing up from the beach. Breakfast was cereal, and lunch was childish…a peanut butter sandwich. I revel in the normalcy of it all. Just to make life even kinder, the...

WITH FOGS

I struggle with Wordpress. It doesn’t want to publish the way I want it to, and some days it doesn’t want to publish at all. There are now two posts that don’t show up at all. I must tell you...

A beautiful Day

I struggle with Wordpress. It doesn’t want to publish the way I want it to, and some days it doesn’t want to publish at all. There are now two posts that don’t show up at all. I must ...

NO MEMORY

I took a two hour nap this afternoon. I must have needed it. George says I have chemo brain, but I think it worse. Can’t remember things I used to do with ease….like delete old images from my...

BEFORE AND AFTER

Lots of before and after pictures to be taken. The bedroom no longer looks like this, nor does the living room or garage. All the leftovers from my long hospital stay are stowed. G spent most...

AN HIMSELF KIND OF DAY

At one PM last night. I got up to go to the toilet. Yes, I tripped over the rug. And yes, trip altered our whole night and day. I fell onto the toilet. Water rushed out and flooded the bath...

WE DON'T ALL LOOK ALIKE

(https://i.imgur.com/sZJtsoD.jpg) I hovered over my computer all weekend. As did George. “Art and the Holocaust.” Only on one topic did I lose my sense of humor. Photos on my blogs. Once upon ...
