The Last Two Days

The past two days Organization and Routine have been out of town at a convention of Control Freaks Anonymous. Forget about Make A Plan and Be On Time. They’re AWOL. And me, well, I’ve been thinking about getting in a corner and playing my lips but I keep getting interrupted.
Dorey tells me this is all [...]

Okay, photos are up — in public — with people seeing them. Nervous? Who me? No, I’m not nervous. Slightly maniacal giggle
The show is Friday night from 6 to 8 p.m. at the Starbucks on Hulen at Bellaire here in Fort Worth and the photos will be [...]

Today Was A Circus

Today was a total circus, and a tale worth telling, but I’m just too done in. Have to be up early to hang the photos for the exhibit. (Read excitement and terror into that last bit.) Here’s the beautiful sunset we enjoyed this evening. I’ll be back with the whole story [...]

Monday At The Vet Clinic

I think it’s safe to say your website has become popular when your vet greets your cat with a kiss and the words, “Dorey! We’re gonna make the blog.” Yep, Dorey took a field trip to see Dr. Susan and the gang at the clinic this afternoon. I spotted a sort of kitty pimple on [...]

Mary

At first Mary didn’t want to teach me to play the piano, telling Mother I was too old at twelve to start lessons. She only relented when she found out that I could read music and was sufficiently convinced that the lessons were my idea and not Mother’s. I remember standing at the front window [...]

1,085 Books and 120 Channels

Last night was my third in a row to fall asleep after 4 o’clock. These little fits of insomnia are not unusual but it has been awhile since one has struck with such a vengeance.

Blessings

There’s been no semblance of a schedule around here this week. I’ve been waking up late for me. R.’s been waking up early for her. Put the two together and I’ve been getting about 15 minutes of “greet the world” time each day when I’m used to about two hours. Forget about having any time [...]

Of Shredding and Silverbacks

I designated yesterday to be “Find the Top of Rana’s Desk Day,” so after a quick trip to the zoo, which I’m enjoying as much for the walking as the photography and the animals, I settled down in my desk chair with a black plastic leaf bag open on the floor beside me. My first [...]
