Random thoughts, life lessons, hopes and dreams
Here’s the thing about One Liner Wednesday – if you plan on skipping the prompt, life will hand you a one-liner that you can’t resist. I was going to take today off. Then yesterday, as I was waiting for a friend outside a restaurant, a Parking Enforcement Officer and not one, but two parking scofflaws... Continue Reading →

Welcome, my chuckaboos! If you are new around here, “chuckaboo” is what the Victorians called a dear friend.
Changes abound! Those of you who visited my midweek post already know I’ve changed things. If not, then you see that I’ve redecorated my sanctuary. After many years of the same blog-look, I decided to use the steampunk banner to reflect the new serial.

Hill has given us what seems to be a straightforward Stream of Consciousness Saturday prompt: “Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is ‘clean/dirty.’ Use one, use both, use ’em...

Over the course of 42 years in business, I can’t begin to estimate how many sales calls-emails-faxes I’ve received, not to mention the random people who still just show up at the front door with their, “I’m in the building visiting another client…” spiel.

When I was reading Pam's (Butterfly Sand) post about choices, it occurred to me that most of the pictures I am sharing today were taken from Great River Park. I've mentioned before, that I discovered this park many... Continue Reading →
It’s a sweltering Saturday here in Connecticut, but we’re going to cool off at the bar while we try to incorporate Linda G. Hill’s Stream of Consciousness Saturday prompt into our conversation. Linda has given us: “Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is ‘frame.’ Use it as a noun or a verb or... Continue Reading →
