My friendly ghost

I have noticed an odd phenomenon in… my bedroom of all places! And, NO, it’s not an X-rated phenomenon!
I have a touch lamp on the nightstand beside my bed. I currently have a make-shift nightstand.. it’s a 2 drawer file cabinet posing as a nightstand.

The Dobster is really smart

He knows that I don’t like him walking on/landing on/running across the keyboard when I’m on the computer… I pick him up & move him each & every time he gets on it. I know he KNOWS because each time he gets on it now, he RUNS really fast across it to the other [...]

No return call

I’ve left a message for youngest daughter’s friend’s dad asking him to call to talk about the sheriff calling me that night to pick her up from Frontier City. I also left a message for daughter’s friend’s mom, his ex wife, asking her to call so we can plan a time for the girls [...]

A visit today

from the kids’ dad was a pleasant one. After his wife called yesterday morning to talk to me about when the kids could come for a visit, XH called in the evening to say that he was coming this way & that he’d call when he got close (arrived at 4am). He asked [...]

Tried the jalapeno jelly

and it turned out GREAT! Yippee!!!

Visit to the pet store

Today the kids & I went to our favorite pet supply store to buy food & a new toy for Dobby. While there, we looked around at the birds. We saw a 9 year old African Gray. He was so pretty & could say lots of words. At first, we had [...]
