Random thoughts, life lessons, hopes and dreams
I think we all know what I’m talking about, so I’ll skip the Corona Virus back story. I had two other posts written for today, but I grew not to like either of them. The first one was too virusy and the second one bordered on being math-ish. I figured that in these stressful times,... Continue Reading →
It’s the very last Saturday of 2019, and Linda has given us a slow-pitch softball for our Stream of Consciousness Saturday prompt. We’ll gather at the bar one last time and see what we can make of: “Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is ‘year.’ Use it any way you’d like. Enjoy!” I... Continue Reading →
Linda gave us an easy Stream of Consciousness Saturday prompt today. I’m going to ignore the obvious track for a blog post for this one: “Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is ‘post.’ Use it as a word, or find a word that uses it as a prefix.

If we were having a beer, you would find it impossible to not go there… “Can I assume from previous years that you won’t be making any resolutions?” “Yes. Can I assume that knowing that will allow us to move on to other subjects?” “I’m afraid not.” “You boys aren’t going to start this debate... Continue Reading →
This visit to the bar is also part of Linda G. Hill’s fun weekly series, Stream of Consciousness Saturday. Yours truly is filling in for Linda today, and our assignment was: Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is: “ooooh, aaaah,”. Use it as a phrase, or break it apart. And since I love... Continue Reading →
Weekends are important part of life. At least they are while you’re working. I don’t know if I’ll still appreciate weekends after I retire. I hope so, but I wonder if I’ll start doing weekend things during the week so I won’t have to be out in the weekend crowd. I think I might like... Continue Reading →
