STOP THE CLOCK

Fandango’s Provocative Question #161 I've hated daylight savings time as long as I've been aware it existed, so this change can't come soon enough for me! Assuming you agree we should have the same clock time year-round rather than moving up an hour in spring and back an hour in the fall, do you favor going … Continue reading STOP THE CLOCK

SHARING MY WHAT?

SHARE YOUR WORLD 2-21-2022 I have a headache. I'll be right back. First, I need a couple of Excedrin. I got two Excedrin, but lost them between the kitchen and the living room. Considering it's just about 12 feet from the closet where I keep the Excedrin in the kitchen, to the living room where I … Continue reading SHARING MY WHAT?

THE WINTER CAROUSEL

I love carousels, and I love calliopes. Just the sound of a calliope brings tears to my eyes. They have a beauty down at the Heritage Museum site on Cape Cod. The Winter Carousel at the Heritage Museum was more than 100 years old. They had brought it to the museum from some other part … Continue reading THE WINTER CAROUSEL

MID NOVEMBER SHARING TIME

Share Your World 18th November Suddenly, the holidays are looming. Thanksgiving is next week. How did that happen? I know time doesn't go faster when you are older, but it sure feels as if it does. I just finished reading Terry Pratchett's "Reaper Man," which stars DEATH (always in capital letters), his trip into being almost … Continue reading MID NOVEMBER SHARING TIME

POWER’S BACK ON

The electricity has been out most of the day. I think it is finally back on. You never know how all-electric you are until it's out. I'm still resetting the clocks. One more to go. My day has been semi-cancelled. We are all electric including water which is pumped up from our well. Without electricity, … Continue reading POWER’S BACK ON

OLD PEOPLE

https://www.youtube.com/embed/5NEkJhBHh54?si=lzy1436cWCgkkGZq I play games on my phone. I play while I wait for an appointment to start. I play while I'm listening to an audiobook. I'm a fiddly kind of person. I need to be busy. My fingers twitch if I'm idle. This morning I'm listening to a book about the Westminster Dog Show which … Continue reading OLD PEOPLE

TIME IN A HURRY

Share Your World 8th April 2024 Time moves really fast, but this year I never seem to have time to grab a moment and hold it before it's gone. I was 65 and now I'm 77 and where did the time go? I got old writing this blog. Think about that. It's a bit mind-boggling, isn't … Continue reading TIME IN A HURRY

RIDICULOUSLY BUSY

Dolls. Dolls who need a bit of love and kindness. Dolls who need clothing washed and ironed -- and ironing doll clothing is no small feet -- the iron was not designed to do such small pieces. There are dolls all over the place and until I make sufficient progress, I'm not going to be … Continue reading RIDICULOUSLY BUSY
