A Red Sky in the Morn does not make a Dark Winter…

How does the saying go? Red Sky at Dawn Sailors Yawn? Or is it Red Sky in the Morn Sailors Warn? I guess it all depends on which way your ship is sailing. Are you sailing away from the storm or into the storm, right? Today is inauguration day of Joe Biden as our next…

The In-Box Stack of Stuff, First with Addresses

My In-box is wayyyyy over flowing so I'm just going to work through a little bit of it today. The first item in the stack is to update my address 'book'. Because it's that time of year I have all the Christmas/Holiday cards and envelopes in a pile on my desk ready to sort through…

Time Sucks – Learning New Things Over and Over Again

It's a pet peeve. I hate having to learn something over and over again, especially software. Just when I get used to working with a program, there's a change and then I'm back to basics all over again. Fortunately, I'm good at picking things up but every time there's a change it messes with the…

2021. I turned the December 2020 page of the calendar and hung up a new 2021 calendar in the kitchen. It's already half way through January and you'd think I'd be more on top of things but I'm not!  Uggh.   However, this is always the best time of year to have a fresh start and…

I know I've neglected the blogging aspect of this site, opting for Facebook and Instagram to be connected to friends (Facebook) and friends and the world (Instagram). I've also had this BIG little thing that's sapped up a lot of my time, two or…

I’m Bumping Up My Goals…

Changing step goal to 12000 per day! Whoot! For about a year I was trying to reach 11000 steps. I'm going to increase this as I actually think I should be shooting towards 15000. Let's see how many times per week I can do it! Cathy

Abandoned at the side of the road…

Yesterday on my way to work I passed by a pile of stuff put out for trash collection. On top of an old chair was this machine. I turned the corner and drove around the block for a 2nd look and decided to stop and pick her up.  There was a pressure foot, needle, bobbin…

Scenes from the dashboard series…Fall

Driving home I decided to turn down a different street and stopped to take this pic. Nobody behind me so I didn't need to pull over. I love the undisturbed leeves in the road.
