Doug left for his trip to Egypt today. This would be his second attempt to see Egypt; the first time was via cruise but the stop was removed due to the turmoil that was going on there at the time. Before he left, he decided to look at the forecast here over the next few […]
I have a blue light. It is one of those energy saving bulbs that lasts what seems like forever. It has been in my outside porch light for a good 4 (maybe more) years now (and yes, I did notice that there are plenty of dead bugs at the bottom in this photo – […]
I wrote this post when DC turned Twenty- Five. I re-posted it when he turned Twenty-Six, or ‘Twenty-Sixteen’ in DC-speak. Twenty- Five was hard to wrap my head around. ‘Twenty-Seventeen’ (27 in DC-speak) is even harder. We’re moving closer and closer to 30 and I may never get over that. Many times over the course […]
Below is a comment I made recently on another blogger’s post (See: I can’t let it go). Due to the long-windedness of it, one might assume it was in opposition to what was written. Believe it or not, it was not. I did agree with much of the author’s points and began my comment by […]
To Explore Strange New Worlds: Understanding Autism Through A Star Trek Lens ~ By Elizabeth W. Barnes I have to begin by saying that I always loved to read, until I hit the age where my arms were no longer long enough to see the pages clearly and I had to begin wearing the dreaded […]
Last week, while waiting for his transport to arrive, DC decided that he wanted to wear a stick-on mustache. It was Monday and as Monday mornings have been difficult for DC lately, I let him wear it. The mustache was keeping his mind off the rising anxiety he was experiencing, so there would be no […]
This week’s Finish The Sentence Friday prompt is: “I’m really afraid that/of…” If you have been around here for any length of time, you know all too well what my nightmares are made of. Dying, of course. I am sure that most people could say that they are afraid of dying, but when you have a […]
As you may or may not know, over and above his regular day job/program, DC also volunteers at a local theater. He has been there for four and a half years now. His best friend, BB just recently started volunteering there as well. If DC could choose his dream job, it would be one […]
It is that time of year again (how fast did 2017 speed on by?) to re-post my top 5 most popular posts of the year from this blog site. This was probably one of, if not the best day of the year in DC-land (maybe even better than Halloween – shocking, I know), so it […]
Three years ago we left for vacation early on Christmas morning. Two years ago was the very first time in my life I believe, that I did not have to go anywhere on Christmas Day. Back, many years ago when I was single and working in a convalescent home, I would always volunteer to […]
Below is an article that was published in the October issue of APM. I did share the entire issue when it was first published, but was asked not to share the article itself on my blog (something to do with Google and Searches) until it appeared on their blog. Since it has not appeared on their blog so far and I still am trying to blog from my phone due to our internet issues, I thought that inserting photos rather than trying to type with one finger on my phone seems to be the easiest route to publishing a new post. I decided I would share it under a different title as not to go back on my word and confuse Google.
Very cool! Congratulations!

Thank you. I think I may be up and running (internet wise) Yay! I did almost take you up on your e-mail offer yesterday when I had internet back and then it went down again. Hopefully it will stick and I can end the one finger typing via my phone style blogging 🙂 Fingers crossed.
