Now that’s a scary thought. This particular thought manifested itself as a dream. Ok as a nightmare. Nightmare snippets to be exact. Those connecting dreams that take place when you are between wake and sleep in the morning. When reality seems dusty and unattractive. When you keep dozing off and returning to the same dream … Continue reading Pregnant at 66 – Yikes!

One Day In December
I rolled out of bed just before nine o’clock and padded, well actually flip flopped, my way to the bathroom where I glanced out the window to see a skim of ice on the lake. It won’t last this time due to an impending warm spell, but a girl can dream, and it brings me … Continue reading One Day In December
That Last Day
We've all heard or read the quote, "Live this day as if it's your last." None of us know exactly where or when we first heard or read it. Nor do we know who originated it. I figure it was created by some self-appointed sage who now creates memes for Facebook with the constant goal … Continue reading That Last Day
OMG Did I TRULY Find The One…
Any guys, oops sorry men. (Since it appears to be inappropriate to call women girls these days, I suppose it might be inappropriate to call men guys.) Anyway regular readers of the male persuasion may not want to bother reading this post because it is about a bra. Or you just may because it is … Continue reading OMG Did I TRULY Find The One…
My Husband is Gone Away. YAY!

I have never heard a discussion regarding female sex drives. Now days I can go online and get scores … Continue reading This May Make You Uncomfortable
Refusing To Obsess About Aging
Obsessing about aging has become a national pastime and not just for those who are middle aged. Twenty-somethings and thirty-somethings are just as obsessed as fifty-somethings. And all this hype can be traced back to marketing. The “Does she…or doesn’t she?” hair campaign in the sixties was written by Shirley Polykoff and targeted women suggesting … Continue reading Refusing To Obsess About Aging
Pavlov’s Dog Of Bladder Control
If you're not familiar with Pavlov's dogs, let me offer a little history. In simple terms Ivan Pavlov was a Russian Scientist who ended up discovering and studying the process of learning known as classical conditioning. He realized that dogs that normally salivate when food was present learned to salivate when an unrelated stimulus was … Continue reading Pavlov’s Dog Of Bladder Control
Let’s redefine bitchy, shall we…
Although screaming and trying to understand what was happening, none of us were born bitchy. Or should I say none of us women were born bitchy because, as we all know, bitchy is a term used to describe females. I could go on about this, but this is ancient history and I refuse to beat … Continue reading Let’s redefine bitchy, shall we…
