An Absence For A Friend and A Balm For My Soul
Several months ago I lost a dear friend up in Alaska. I have mentioned this before in these blogs. Randy and I spent many years outside of the friendship with a theater company, mostly in Hallowe’en shows, but also in some Christmas ones, as well. The ‘thing’ about...

I Was Going To Post Something Else Today, But…
Mom’s 85th birthday is on the 4th, just a few days away, and she requested no eating out. Probably because her two favorite places are at last a 40 minute drive and she is having really bad back days. So I determined to start celebrating a little early and made,

Words Are Fun(ny) Things
Sometimes, it seems to me in this first attempt at writing a book, there are too damn many thoughts. Not really a bad thing for a writer’s mind, of course, but as I pass the almost 420 page mark with possibly 80 more to come(?) my mind raced far ahead and I had to stop and

Is It Your Special Day?
Every Month has it’s ‘special days’, days that are not acknowledged holidays, days for the enjoyment of pizza, of donuts, of ice cream, of flowers, of knitting, of dogs, of cats, of pets and so on. For some obscure reason, I just noticed them more this month, or so far, anyway. Two of

Labor Day In The US
Kinda the last big weekend before the end of Summer and ‘grilling season’ in the US, I thought it might be fun to look at all the labors I have given myself outside of the labor that I get paid for in my job.
Thank the gods it’s nothing like Hera gave Hercules to

@amra I am hoping to self publish in a hardback format. Dunno how much it will cost or how much I’d need to sell for, as it’s not done yet, but I appreciate the vote of confidence!❤️

Just What IS A ‘Blue Moon’ & Why Is It Rare?
Simply put, two full moons in a month are considered a ‘blue moon’, having nothing to do, unfortunately, with the actual color of it. In general, this is an event that happens once every three years or so, so it is a rare thing.
Yeah, that caption is

O, For The Love of Pasta!
I love to cook. I do this whenever I can, and by that, I mean meals, not throwing something in the microwave or steaming vegetables; I mean cooking!
Months ago I cooked up some good Sunday Gravy, more commonly known as ‘pasta sauce’, though that doesn’t really cover it. However,...

@jadestone @cerebus666 @amorous I just bought a new Lasagna pan, and it turned out it was about 1/5 larger than the old one, so there is a LOT left over!

@bradmax I'm on my way lol lasagna is my favorite
I s’pose I should take @starry for this opportunity. I really almost never do such things as they appeal to me not at all. However, when such a one as Starry ‘asks’, I can but acquiesce, of course!

I’m so happy you did this questionnaire! I also don’t often do things like this, but I figured I should since @weedfarmer created it & asked so nicely. I loved reading this my friend ⭐️♥️

@starry Well, when Starry asks, Bradmax Responds. It’s courtesy. You know you’re worth it.

It’s A Storied Experience
It’s a little crazy to me to think I’m almost ‘done’ with writing my book. It is a thing that I needed to do, and yet as I get close to the end of it, I am certain it will not be for publication, but for friends and such. I do intend to self publish

Returned After So Long Away…
That is the movie I saw today, but not the meaning of the silly title for this part. No, since just before the latest pandemic hit I have not been to see a movie on The Big Screen. I have been fortunate to have contracted that virus only once and even then just a mild case. Even so,

‘Words, Words, Words’ & “Acting” Them Out
We are probably all aware of who Ian McKellen is these days, what with ‘The Lord of the Rings’ and ‘Hobbit’ movies and his popularity since. Today, I happened across a video on YouTube from one of the several Royal Shakespeare Company’s late ‘70s and early 80s specials they did were Mr....
