But not just me. Nope. You’ve been had too. We’ve all been had. See, many years ago, decades even, the country needed something. We needed something to believe in. And we found something. Something big, something that gave us a strong belief, a feeling of strength and togetherness. And it made sense. It all made … Continue reading I’ve Been Had

Alas, It’s Time
It’s time I accept it. I called destiny – and it did not take my call. Perhaps it’s just not my time. Maybe I wasn’t meant for greatness. Or, greatness in the super hero sense of the word. I think my ordinary life is pretty great. But I had been led to think there was … Continue reading Alas, It’s Time
When Less Isn’t More
I know the expression, “Less is More” and it’s an adage that I adhere to. When I go to buy a shirt, I don’t want to look at 35 different options, maybe 8 to 10 gives me a better visual for the shirt I want. Or, another example, I wear glasses. And when I need … Continue reading When Less Isn’t More
Another Conundrum
Needed a new utility knife yesterday to do some work on a site. Off I go to Lowes and got that a few other things. Now, I understand the reason things are packaged as they are. Things get stolen right there in the store, taken out of the packaging and put in the pockets. I … Continue reading Another Conundrum
One Day Late and a Dollar Short
I’ve been had. Curses. And to be 100% honest – I’m quite upset about it. I feel as if I’ve been cast aside. A major corporation has wronged me. Like, what did I ever do to them? And when I say MAJOR corporation, I do mean a MAJOR corporation. So what do I do? Do … Continue reading One Day Late and a Dollar Short
And the results are in.
Not the way I thought it would go either. I started with 16 things that people would find unpleasant and through a series of matchups, people voted, both on-line and in person on which was more unpleasant. Yes, I asked random people about, “Which is more unpleasant?”. Even asked a few people while pumping gas, … Continue reading And the results are in.
Checks Not Accepted.
I am owed. Yes, I am owed, and it might be a substantial amount. But do I expect to see it? Nope. Not a dime. Not a single dime. Recently, I went to a restaurant and it was burger night and the burger started at $10 if my memory serves. Want cheese? Add $1. Want … Continue reading Checks Not Accepted.
It is NOT Okay
It’s been a while. It’s been more than a while. Too long. Not days. No – it’s been weeks. WEEKS. You see, I fell for their game. DANG IT !!!! They got me. They reeled me in and then … BAMM!!!! They got me. Oh – and I’ve looked. I’ve looked everywhere. EVERYWHERE !!! But … Continue reading It is NOT Okay
Update
Lots going on these days. Sometimes I have random thoughts and other times I have actual updates on already made posts. My random thoughts might not be deserving of their own posts – so I try and group them together to make it easier for my valued readers to digest. Update 1 – Still no … Continue reading Update
Words
Words, not of wisdom …. Nope, just words …. Recently I started squeezing blueberries into my coffee. It’s quite the taste. I pulverize several blueberries into my mug before I use my Keurig for coffee. *Side Note 1 – you do remember my love for my Keurig, as written in my very first post … Continue reading Words
