I’ve recently begun a new book at DailyLit. It’s called Poems Every Child Should Know, by various authors. I’ve selected two to share tonight:
THE BABY.
I found “The Baby” in Stedman’s “Anthology.” It is placed in this
volume by permission of the poet, Jeremiah Eames Rankin, of Cleveland
(1828-), because it captured the heart of a ten-year-old boy [...]
At Best Buy, apparently they only hire 14-year-olds anymore. Or maybe it’s that I’ll be 35 next month and all the college kids working at Best Buy are looking awfully young to me.
I was supposed to have yesterday off for Vacation, to get my cards and shopping finished. But the Photo Lab malfunctioned and I [...]
Jack the Quack
When I was a kid, we’d go to a Chiropractor whose first name was Jack. My dad always called him “Jack the Quack,” even though we all went to him for treatments and agreed that he was an adequate chiropractor.
See, our family isn’t of the idea that Chiropractic will cure every ill, but that [...]
I’m up and awake. It’s nearly midnight and I am on a mission.
My mom is retiring at the end of this month and I, LIKE A SILLY GOOSE, am throwing her a party the day before she would have had to go back to work, were she not retiring. That means January 5 is the [...]
Rob and I are addicted to Netflix. And on Netflix, we’re addicted to The West Wing, the TV show. I have just finished watching 3 episodes, and now I’m getting ready for work. I’m closing tonight, but that’s fine,
BECAUSE I AM HAVING AN AMAZING HAIR DAY!!!!!!!!
Time’s running out, friends.
Get ‘em while there’s still time, and money left for postage.
If indeed you would like to receive a paper Christmas card from me, don’t delay! Even if I have sent you a card in years past, please still send me your snail mail addy via the TALK TO ME link on this [...]

What is your dream job? Give me a list of your Top 5, and a sentence of why those appeal to you. I’ll give you my Top 5 in a day or two.
Did you know that I love Taco Bell? Not enough to eat the stuff 24/7, but I do crave it quite often. It’s just plain good.
Check this out:
90 Feet to Free Tacos in America
If a player on either team in the World Series successfully steals a base, Taco Bell is giving a free taco to [...]
My twin sister Dotty sent this article to me today. Yikes. This guy’s iPod Nano supposedly burst into flames while in his pants. What Dotty doesn’t know, though, is that when I am doing housework, I usually have my iPod right like this:

Yes, everyone is insane.
…. but I’ve posted 3 times since the last one listed here.
The titles showed up, but none of the post did… and did I save it in a Word document? No. That’s for people who actually don’t want to fuss with re-writing their post. Me? LOVE (!!!!!) Doing work over again!!!!!! Not.
So Marie and Ken [...]
My head hurts, my allergies are awful and my feet are throbbing.
But other than that, this week is going soooooooo cool. Work is great. I love working on it. I love being “the boss” of it. I love training my coworkers and reminding my boss about it. I love it when customers come back and [...]
We’ve had several pairs of nic’s throughout the ages and I’m sitting here wondering why I didn’t ever think about this before. We’re quite funny, when I type out all the nic’s and think of when and where we used them. lolol
Dotty’s nicname: Joie de Vivre (Joy of life)
My nickname: Je Ne Sais Quois (I [...]
