Caitlin and I finally made it to our long awaited pedicure date. I was climbing into the chair (and feeling very cow like and clumsy while doing so) when out of my arms which held my purse and two magazines slipped my phone straight into the foot bath. I plunged my left hand in […]
I’ve got cascades of pink roses and two bushes of red roses, but I can never get yellow roses to bloom. Over the years I planted a fair number and they all have failed to thrive. I’ve tried different kinds in different places, all with the same results - bare, twisted twigs in the dirt. […]
Socks is looking like the old cat he is. While we’ve managed to stop the weight loss caused by his diabetes he is a shadow of his former self. When he follows Lucky and me on a walk we take a short route and a slow pace. He used to disdain the litter box, but […]
John’s four SOL tests have finally arrived - he has one each day this week. Monday night he declared he didn’t want to go to school because he didn’t want to take them. We assured them that he would do just fine, that they weren’t a big deal, he would pass easily, etc. We pointed […]

And while we didn’t see an orgy of egg laying that occurs in those parts we did see numerous horseshoe crabs scattered on the beach or swimming in the shallows.

Bobby and Joy found a great beach house for Memorial Day weekend new Lewes, Delaware. It was right on the beach with a big windows and large deck to enjoy the view of the lower Delaware Bay. The beach was wide and pristine with a sprinkling of other people and dogs. There were enough bed […]
I was enjoying my spring time bouquets of peonies, iris, and roses until Caitlin after a sneezing fit blamed in on all the flowers and rounded them all up and consigned them to one table out of her path. They look rather silly all lumped there together. Plus, the flowers are fading. I’ll see if […]
I would have liked to sit down and write my Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull movie review immediately after watching it, but that was at 3:00 in the morning and I was a little tired. Actually I’m still a little tired.
In short, we liked it a lot. Harrison Ford looked […]
