In my on-again, off-again almost lifelong efforts to lose a little bit of weight and get in better shape, I started diet #167 on Saturday. (I really haven’t counted; it just feels that way!) I figured the luck of the Irish couldn’t hurt, right? I swear I’ve lost and gained the same 20 pounds a [...]

March 15, 2012Monday, on a flight from Chicago to Columbus, I sat next to Elvis. Well, sort of. I sat next to a startling Elvis look-alike, an actor/musician playing the part of Elvis in a musical currently running in Chicago. He and a few more cast members were on the flight. The others were sitting in the two [...]

March 1, 2012Nostalgia. People just need to get over it. Move on. Those words were spoken in a meeting today, as someone was reacting to a recent conversation he had with some folks. It got me thinking about whether or not nostalgia is a good thing or a bad thing. Then, I heard the news. Davy Jones died. [...]

February 23, 2012Sunrise…Sunset. I’ve always loved watching the sun rise and set. My poor husband has endured (and enjoyed) many early alarms while on vacation at the shore or other beaches so I could take countless photos of the sun rising. We happen to live very near a large reservoir, and the setting sun reflects beautifully in the water. Even from inside [...]

February 16, 2012Every day, I DVR The Ellen Show. In the evening, I catch up as time allows. Last night, I watched Monday’s show with guest Jennifer Lopez. Jennifer was wearing a black skirt with the word L-O-V-E across the front. Ellen commented that it is good for the universe to wear clothes with positive words like that. She asked [...]

February 9, 2012Last weekend my husband and I spent four days with our son, his wife and their 2-1/2 month old baby. Last time we saw them, the baby was only two weeks old. So much has changed so quickly! Today, I am thankful for the joys found in this time with our grandson. It’s been a long while [...]

February 2, 2012My son and his wife adopted a dog last weekend. They are very excited about it! Cute little three month old black puppy, retriever mix. We face-timed Sunday night for a little bit and the dog didn’t bark at all. So far, it seems the dog is very good with the baby, just likes to [...]

January 26, 2012As I write this, it’s Wednesday evening, and I’ve been sitting with my fingers poised over my laptop, talking to my husband and watching a recording of today’s Ellen Show. Until a few moments ago, I was stuck on what to write for this week’s TYT post. It has been a very trying few weeks. I’ve been [...]

January 10, 2012Have you tried Pinterest yet? Essentially, it’s an electronic bulletin board on which you can “pin” things you find online that “interest” you. You could set up a board to collect ideas for your wedding, how to decorate your new house, vacation destinations or fashion ideas. You can also peruse boards that other people have created and re-pin their [...]
