Eloquent Life

posted about 1 year ago, updated less than a minute later | 1 comment
The quiet man is what I called him.
He frequents his groups regularly but seldom posts or replies.
He's learned to observe life
and record it with incredible photos
but dysfluent speech makes him pause and think through his words
before uttering t...

There Once Was a Hoarder (In My Life)

posted about 1 year ago | 3 comments
My previous husband was a hoarder, and before I married him I told him, "I can't live like this. I'll make you a deal. I'll clean this place up for you, even though it's not my mess, but you can't complain about what/how I do it. I'll be considera...

Jerk-Proof Your Heart

posted about 1 year ago, updated 1 minute later | 2 comments
Yes, there ARE jerks out there. Men and women who lead sincere people on, promising they are more than they are, want more than they really do, or have more than they have.

But mixed in with those who act like that are good and sincere people loo...

Musing

posted about 1 year ago | 0 comments
Why is it disrespectful to refer to our current president as "O" but it's ok to use initials to refer to JFK, MLK and others?

Of course, I am not a fan of this current president of ours. I respect the office he holds, but not the man who has had ...

Here is a link to an EXCELLENT website, www.RomanceScams.org. Some of us are in long distance relationships and have met and know we're dealing with a "real" person. I'm one example, but bear in mind that I've been online for over a decade and whi...

The Double-Dip Recession, 2010 (My Shortest Blog)

posted about 1 year ago | 0 comments
I think it's funny that the news is talking about a double-dip recession. I don't think we've had a double-dip, it's just that people didn't believe that a recovery was happening just because the media tells us it is, so this is the spin they're p...

Boobs of the North: Aging

posted about 1 year ago | 2 comments
My standards aren't lower now that I'm in my 50's,
but I'd be lying if I said my boobs weren't!
The glory of my anatomy seems to have a mind
of it's own....or at least, wanderlust.

my wayward bo...

One Day

posted about 1 year ago | 0 comments
I looked for love in unwise places,
with people who were not ready,
or worthy, or even remotely likely.
I believed that love was hard to find,
difficult to receive, and didn't want to leave
any stone unturned in this most important
quest.

Rare Visitor

posted about 1 year ago, updated about 2 hours later | 0 comments
Your lips demur this truth I know,
I am not welcome here.

And I, so brave in many things,
falter at the pain this brings.

I daily drive on frozen roads,
Live through darkened months untold.

I've fought cancer, conquered debt,
Drove the AlCan so...
