How high’s the water, Mama? or So this is Friday…
(With nods to my late friend, the one and only Johnny Cash, and to John Lennon, whom I never met, unfortunately. And he was my favorite Beatle, too.) Virtual Linda's water is, presently, at thigh level--two feet high and risin' 🙂 As for the Friday-ness, well, as...
Hydrated to my shins and other news
Hey, some days I come up with better topics than others. 🙂 Today's blog title refers to my newest toy, an iPhone app called WaterMinder, as I believe I mentioned on Monday. Interestingly, I've taken to downing a couple of big glasses of H2O before I even have my...
There’s an app for that…
Before I start in on today's main topic, here are last week's winners: Marguerite Guinn and Cathy Dixon. (Your prizes are on their way as we speak--Jen just left for the post office.) As always, the new round is up and running, so be sure to comment. Eventually,...
Good News at Weight Watchers and other pertinent (?) remarks
I weighed in on Wednesday and, I'm happy to say, I was DOWN two big ones! YES! I've been knocking around in a four-pound range, gaining and losing, for a month. From what I hear at meetings, this is typical. So, anyway, I am definitely happy about this particular...

Weight Watchers Report, Etc.
This morning I was down 1.2 pounds, so I'm happy. 🙂 Last evening, while Bernice and I were returning from our walk, I caught a glimpse of red on some tomato plants over by the greenhouse--yeehaw! I scored some nice ones, and carried them back to the house. Made a...

Long time no blog OR: And you thought I was dead
I'm alive and well, and down 3.6 pounds as of last Wednesday's Weight Watchers meeting. I'm not sure why I haven't blogged this week--it just seemed that something popped up every time I wanted to start. 🙂 I'm writing, of course, and deep into the study of THE...

WOW!!!
A huge THANK YOU to Linda Lattin for the GORGEOUS mustang figurine!! He's prominently displayed on my office book shelf, where I can look at him often--you really shouldn't have, but I'm sure glad you did. 🙂 (Please send your snail mail address to [email protected]...
Fridge-Magnet Wisdom and assorted ramblings
I've been thinking about refrigerator magnets lately. (Don't ask why, because I have no idea.) Still, one can tell a great deal about a person, I think, by studying the various items affixed to their refrigerator door. The most obvious example: children's art,...
