Random thoughts, life lessons, hopes and dreams
Maddie likes her routine. When I travel, my part of her routine is disrupted, and she lets me know that I have to get back in the groove as soon as I return. That includes our weekend walks, even if it’s foggy with a chance of drizzle. We might be able to skip a crummy... Continue Reading →
Maddie and I usually walk on Saturday and Sunday. She often walks with the Editor during the week, but then they fall into their normal routine. I should add that their normal routine doesn’t include me barging in, slamming opening and closing doors, toggling lights, responding to sounds on my phone or yelling for asking... Continue Reading →
When we are planning on going out to dinner, I don’t like to eat very much for lunch. On the other hand, even though we eat dinner early, it’s not like I’m going to make it all day without a meal. So, I have breakfast. It’s not much of a disruption, since I love having... Continue Reading →
On a recent walk with Maddie, we got to watch a little scene play out high atop the lights at the baseball field. It reminded me of the guys who tried too hard to pick up women in bars. I’m sure this activity still goes on, but it brought me back to the early 80s... Continue Reading →

I didn't participate in SoCS and I miss the permission to ramble on. I was on the road last week, and, as often happens I'm caught with a hole in the schedule. I wrote the posts for last Wednesday and Thursday before I left. I wrote Saturday’s post in the airport and I gathered ideas... Continue Reading →
This is Maddie talking, and this post is mine. The topic Linda put out there for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is not going to go the way he thought. “Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is: “yard.” Use it any way you’d like. You can even add letters to it to make a... Continue Reading →
While you might be expecting an intricately woven story of a holiday weekend…I got nothing. That’s not entirely true, but it’s Sunday. It’s Easter. And, due to the distractions mentioned in the title, I don’t have time to write my way around the pictures I was planning to share. Don’t all sigh in relief at... Continue Reading →
