July Hodgepodge – #ThursdayDoors

I’ve been tossing several doors aside each week for almost a month. Sooner or later, I either need to use them or I forget where they are. I’ve been swamped at work this week, so it seems like a good day to use them. I’ve done my best to tell the story in the captions.... Continue Reading →

Some Like It Hot – #SoCS

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 →

One is All it Takes – #WATWB

This might be a strange little post for WATWB. I was alerted to a Twitter Tweet Stream earlier in April by a person I follow who said: “This is the nicest story I’ve read in a long time.” Who could resist? It’s a story, written originally as a series of tweets, by a woman who... Continue Reading →

Don’t Be Grumpy – #1LinerWeds

I traveled by train from Connecticut to Washington, DC in early December. This story starts on that train, in New Rochelle, NY (yes, where Rob and Laura lived). A woman got on the train, dressed for business and looking like she was ready to read someone the riot act. Our car was crowded, but the... Continue Reading →

Tis the Season – #ThursdayDoors

No, not for Christmas, for leftovers. Following a short holiday week here in the US, I was greeted by the week that marks the end of our company’s fiscal year. A week spent weaving in and out of budgets and trying to finish that which should be paid for in 2018. Suffice it to say,... Continue Reading →

Just Passing By – #ThursdayDoors

Today is Thanksgiving here in the US, So I want to be brief and stay with the spirit of the day. The doors in the gallery were collected from the train while traveling to/from New York City. I’ve done my best to describe them in the captions. You know the drill, if you’re in between... Continue Reading →

What He Said – #1LinerWeds

Have you ever been in a situation where someone is being a loud-mouth jerk and you want to say something but what you’re thinking of saying would likely make matters worse? I was in such a situation last Thursday, but fortunately, another man wanted to say something and came up with the right thing. If... Continue Reading →

The First Last

I’ve watched a number of friends and coworkers retire, and one of the things that always seems to happen is the realization that they are doing something for the last time. Although I’m still almost a year away from that milestone moment in my career, I have just experienced my first last thing. Every November... Continue Reading →

Roll with the Punches – #SoCS

It’s not just Saturday at the bar, it’s Stream of Consciousness Saturday. Linda G. Hill has given us one of her famous ‘use one or both’ – wait, I don’t see an offer of bonus points – oh well, it looks like a fun prompt: “Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is ‘roll/role.’...
