    The Worth Of A Penny

    See a penny, pick it up, and all the day, you’ll have…… ………a penny in your pocket. For, after all, a penny saved, is just a penny, and it won’t buy much of anything. But, if you find twenty-five pennies, you’ll have two bits. For, as we all know, two bits, four bits, six bits, a dollar. And...

    "Being Henry"

    I just finished Henry Winkler's book, "Being Henry". It is an easy read and is filled with insights perhaps not known by most folks. There are a LOT of references to actors, directors, producers, and shows many of us will not recognize. There are some revelations and lessons I took away from...

    Refreshed (Happy Holidays To Everyone)

    At the edge of the horizon beginning with the crack of dawn, there is a single moment, when time spans eternity, and life begins anew. Each day, in every life the world is clean, free of strife, remorse, hatred, and futility. It is a moment to be experienced, a moment to be cherished and...

    Just A Slip

    I'm not foggy nor am I dense. But in these days that are becoming ever fewer, my memories sometimes just slip away. Some things I thought I knew, well now I don't. Perhaps the synapses aren't firing as well. Perhaps it is a portend of my future. Perhaps, it is just a slip, and not a fall.

    Aspirations

    When I was young I always aspired to become a Henchman. When I discovered that no courses were available at college. I gave up the idea. So I climbed the ladder of success, and managed to reach the level of middle mediocrity. And there I stayed 'till this very day. After many sleepless...

    The shed got a new roof

    A couple of days ago, my shed/barn got a new roof, installed by a contractor. I hand built the shed from a plan about 35 years ago and hammered every nail, cut every board and did everything myself. These days, I am lucky to be able to get up and walk around. Anyway, I am banned from going on...

    Things You can't Do Anymore

    Pickleball Abandoned Well, last week I attempted to play pickleball once again since giving it up when the pandemic began. About 10 minutes in, I began to wonder about my decision. Aches and pains prevailed everywhere. My 76 year old body was protesting to my 26 year old mind. After a week...

    Raking Autumn's Produce

    (Originally written in 2015) I confess, I really don’t rake much anymore, in the truest sense of the word. I have a backpack blower that I use to gather up the “countless” leaf clutter each year into large piles. Then I do actually rake them onto canvass tarpaulins, approximately 16’ by 12’...

    Grand Daughter is becoming a "Reader"

    One of my Grand Daughters recently asked me if I had any Stephen King books. Being a very long term Stephen King fan, I told her I would look around for some. The problem was that I had sold most of the early works in a garage sale years ago. So, I bought her a copy of his latest, "Fairy...

    No Rhyme, No Reason

    Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy is not the same as Tinker to Evers to Chance. So take a chance. After all, Knick-Knack-Paddy-Whack never really had the bone. Today, I have no cents, no sense, or no scents. And, I'm out of sorts.
