Let’s begin with my memory, especially for the things we do habitually every day and even more especially, the things we do out of habit or automatically in the morning. Back before they invented coffee makers that shut off on a timer, I can’t tell you how many times I had to leave work to […]
DC’s way of communicating is oftentimes mentioning a tiny detail that no one at the time found important (but it was important to him). It is my job to go back in my memory to see if I can remember anything that might connect to what he is trying to tell me. This […]
This week’s Finish the Sentence Friday prompt is “The Last Book I read was….”. As I am no longer the avid reader that I once was (the whole “reading glasses” situation is explained below), the last book that I DID read was close to a year ago, now. The subject matter being two subjects that […]
DC has been counting the days waiting for Thanksgiving to arrive and just know that he would never imagine keeping me out of the loop on this…… daily/hourly/every few minutes. I do have to say that his ‘Thanksgiving’ pronunciation has improved over the past year but “firsday’ is still ‘firsday’ I am not really […]
……. but we DO have “Jim Dear” As Halloween’s go, this could be the “lowest key” low-key Halloween we have ever had. This post, which would normally be our “Halloween Wrap-Up” post is not much of a wrap-up post at all. With only 3 parties scheduled this season, we were already down a few activities […]
This is more about DC’s ability (or inability) to choose between two or more options than it is about Halloween but Halloween is a factor in this particular story. DC takes Halloween and the costumes he chooses, pretty seriously. It seems as though we used to have more parties to attend and more costumes to […]
This week the Finish The Sentence Friday prompt is a Listicle – “Share 10 photos from your phone”. There could not have been more perfect timing. As you may or may not remember, I lost all of the photos that were stored on my computer a few weeks ago. The computer went to the […]
It’s been busy ’round here and before I knew what happened, it is the end of September with …… Wait for it…… Halloween right around the corner and we are just now “getting ready”. If you are new here, you might not understand that last sentence. Halloween is a big deal for both DC and […]
Never could I have ever imagined when I was younger, that I would at some point be counting the days until summer was over. Summer was ALWAYS my season. We were on the beach by the end of March or early April (maybe in not so warm conditions, but we were there) and perfectly tanned […]
I had already decided which old post I was going to re-post for Finish the Sentence Friday’s “Share an Old Post” when I came across this status in my Facebook memories from 8 (gulp) years ago and decided (being that it is so timely) I would share the post related to the “college” status instead. […]
