Have you ever been out to lunch with my grandma? You’d know if you did. At the end of the meal, the table would look quite bare. All of the creamer and butter and single-serve jams and jellies would be missing along with most of the silverware. Where did it go? Into grandma’s purse, ofContinue reading “October 30, 2020 – Grandma was a klepto.”

October 28, 2020 – No soliciting. Think I’m kidding? Think again!
Thanks a lot, Sir Paul McCartney. You had to write that blasted song to make people think that everyone loves people just dropping by whenever they get the notion. “Someone’s knocking at the door, someone’s ringing the bell. Someone’s knocking at the door, someone’s ringing the bell. Do me a favor, open the door andContinue reading “October 28, 2020 – No soliciting. Think I’m kidding? Think again!”
October 27, 2020 – All Things Endcap
Once, long ago, in a village far, far away, there lived a peasant woman. About 10 minutes away from her cottage, as the crow flies, stood the nearest market. It had nearly everything anyone could ever possibly want or need. Its inventory included assorted candies which were stored in glass jars (licorice, peppermints and hardContinue reading “October 27, 2020 – All Things Endcap”
October 26, 2020 – Name that tune! Earworms, what happens when a song gets stuck in your head.
Billy Joel, would you please get out of my head?! I am tired of hearing about uptown girls and a particular state of mind that you’re in at the moment and only good people dying young. It has been nearly three hours and no matter what I do, I cannot seem to shake you. IContinue reading “October 26, 2020 – Name that tune! Earworms, what happens when a song gets stuck in your head.”
October 25, 2020 – How did a Samurai get in my house?
Huh? Who IS that? There’s some guy with a ponytail working out on my elliptical!! Wait a sec. He sort of looks familiar. Oh, hang on! Don’t call the police. It’s just my husband. But what the heck is he doing with a ponytail? Am I in some parallel universe where I married a ‘ponytailContinue reading “October 25, 2020 – How did a Samurai get in my house?”
October 23, 2020 – Breathe through your mouth.
There are times in your life when it’s necessary to breathe through your mouth (BTYM). You folks with babies can probably relate to this. If you are a new parent and you haven’t yet mastered the technique, I’ll bet you’ll catch on soon! Maybe you’ve been able to tolerate the (multiple) daily diaper changes becauseContinue reading “October 23, 2020 – Breathe through your mouth.”
October 22, 2020 – Meat doesn’t mix with cleaning solution.
I have a confession to make. I am one of ‘those’ people. A bit vague? Sorry about that. Let me clarify (I’ll use an example that many people are familiar with). Back in the 80s, there was a very popular film called “When Harry Met Sally”. It starred Billy Crystal and Meg Ryan. Meg RyanContinue reading “October 22, 2020 – Meat doesn’t mix with cleaning solution.”
October 21, 2020 – How come nobody warned me about ‘Blog Brain’?
Help me! I think I’ve developed ‘blog brain’. I can hardly eat or sleep. All I think about is what I should write about next. I cannot turn off my thoughts. “What should I write about today, or tomorrow, or next week?” I often ask myself. “Will people enjoy what I have to say orContinue reading “October 21, 2020 – How come nobody warned me about ‘Blog Brain’?”
October 18, 2020 – Take it from me, don’t forget to do your homework when hiring a contractor!
Let this serve as a warning for those of you that could use some help in the ‘home improvement’ department from time to time, but don’t do your homework. Remember back in the day when your teacher told you that in order to pass the class, completing the homework was essential? Well, in this case,Continue reading “October 18, 2020 – Take it from me, don’t forget to do your homework when hiring a contractor!”
October 17, 2020 – Arachnophobia
Would you like to hear a scream that will put everyone on high alert? Just dangle a spider in front of my face. I do hope that you’ve remembered to put in your ear plugs because if you haven’t, there’s a good chance that you’ll end up with shattered ear drums or hearing loss orContinue reading “October 17, 2020 – Arachnophobia”
