Rest in Peace

My faithful printer-copier-scanner died today. In the middle of studying to buy a digital camera, I now have to research buying a replacement for my combination magic machine. There is plenty of information on the web, it just takes time to read through it. Then, when I decide on one, it has to be set up and installed. No… click here to continue

Another Gorgeous Fall (Non-Writing) Day

On our way back from a lovely drive today, a police officer stopped us. He was suspicious that Floyd had been drinking because he was going ten miles below the speed limit and touched the fog line several times.

Daily Report-Friday

I had lunch with a good friend from Molalla today at Wu’s Open Kitchen just across the highway from where I live.

Nostalgia

Today I had a delightful breakfast at lunchtime with an old friend. Old in the sense of many years acquaintance and, as even she would admit, we are both old in years lived.

Weather, Still Unbelievable

We had a lovely day today, riding down the valley with a young woman friend, who has chosen Floyd as her adopted uncle. We had a picnic lunch and were actually able to sit out in the sun for a while. She brought us a couple of candles she had made. She makes a variety of candles for sale,… click here to continue

Recreation to the Forefront

This morning we were treated to a free musical show put on by the Senior Theater. This group has been together for 17 years, I believe they said, and do many performances for retirement communities, nursing homes, etc. They also do a Christmas fundraiser show. Most of the cast are talented singers and dancers. They were extremely entertaining and… click here to continue
