• I hate the Flu

  March 28, 2018

  I tried my best to keep my husband and I from catching the flu this year......from getting the flu shots in October, trying to avoid seriously crowded places and people, eating right, supplementing right, etc. I was so delighted that it worked......until last Friday.  Woke up and said Hello to th...

  I really dislike waking up and not feeling my normal great mood.  Nothing out of the ordinary ever happens to bring this on. I know because I analyze everything and wish that I didn't do that. I often feel I need an answer why things happen.....like it would make more sense to have a reason. &hel...

  Last night I read an entry by my son-in-law, where he told my daughter (both on OD) how he loved her.....and how their life has changed since they had children. He mentioned that she spent part of the evening stuffing 60 little pouches w/Valentine things for both of the kids to take to school for...

Unfortunately, the plans fell thru due to a flaky partner, wh...

  January 3, 2018

  Been so long since I've visited OD......probably since Thanksgiving. Although I love the holidays, I have to admit I'm becoming a Senior Citizen in more ways than I like.....or admit to. Holidays are wonderful if you get to spend more time with Family.......but geeze, they get stressful and are b...

• That Time of Year Stress

  December 14, 2017

  Christmas always comes and goes very successfully....every year.......and yet.....I stress over it. I hear Christmas songs on the radio, in ads, etc......and they remind me to feel stressed.  It's completely ridiculous that I feel this way. I have lists everywhere in the house.....and I know I wi...

  Reply: Thanks so much for this.  I'll check out your your Wish List online for inspiration. Love the idea of you Gardening......you should at least try when you have the Idea. I did that once, at our last house...... I wanted that feeling of being connected somehow to Life, the World, Nature, etc...
