Well…my lovely visit has gone back home to Washington D.C.   I really miss her and the getting up and being on the go constantly.  Did not have to address the issue of taking things that I have shoved into spaces, closets, under the bed, all to make the place look pretty, into consideration.  Now theContinue reading “All that starts well…ends well…my lovely visit has left town…thanks for the beautiful memories…”

Had to go and render homage to the Swedish in Orlando.  You know what I mean, IKEA, the never-ending have fun store.  You simply cannot leave with your hands empty.  Well, my lovely daughter did leave with her hands empty.  No space in suitcase for anything much.  Have to travel light. I purchased a plastic bagContinue reading “Another fun filled day in Florida…and the big blue and yellow box…”

Very lovely and well maintained.   Today my daughter and I went to have lunch at the “Village” where I have moved.  We had a very tasteful meal, in a very quaint and cozy little restaurant.  Service and meal were at par with the village. After having our senses and culinary quests satisfied, we went forContinue reading “A stroll down the avenue…Park Avenue…in Florida…”

Spent the whole day getting ready for my lovely daughter’s visit from the land of the indecisive people, Washington, D.C. Vacuumed and vacuumed.  Fixed things around and fixed more things around.  Took a nap and listened to all the trains go by.  Now, surprising myself, I sometimes do not hear any of the trains.  Is thatContinue reading “A field trip to Orlando International Airport…and lovely company from out of town…”

Voila!  Remember the air mattress on the floor…here is the now version.  Come to think of it, I should be running Congress.  We would be so efficient, that probably we wouldn’t need to have anyone in D.C.  Everything long distance, we save lots of money and all the pork money would be spread equally amongContinue reading “The boys in D.C. continue to play their game…lots of progress down South…I am moving on…”

So here we are…clock is tick tocking…and the boys…who else…yes, I know there are some women in Congress, but majority rules…so the boys don’t know what the heck to do with a national crisis, that somehow I believe “they,” were involved in creating. The days of the running their checking account without bother to balance itContinue reading “My one cent’s worth of opinion on our national debt crisis…”

I have been making some observations around…and have come to the conclusion…I do not want to be reminded constantly of where my destination is.  I totally refuse to mentally and in my attitude to get old. I hope my lovely daughter will watch out for me and will keep me in check whenever I startContinue reading “The little woman that could…and that totally refuses to get old…me”

That phrase, the signs are your friends…Ron used to use whenever we would get lost and would be trying to find our way out. This morning in order to take a break from the world of boxes, I went shopping to get a few items that I have convinced myself will help the place lookContinue reading “The signs are your friends…always follow the signs…”

The much-anticipated “stuff” made it finally all the way from North Carolina to Florida.  Now the drama of opening the boxes and trying to shove things into shelves, drawers, and wherever the mood feels like, has begun. Frankly, the next time is going to be as Miss Lucy said.  Car keys and purse.  But knowing how weContinue reading “The invasion of the energy snatchers…My stuff finally here…and now what…”

Now you see this…my very comfortable bed for the last week +, and my two night tables (two suitcases)…and hopefully after tomorrow all of this very minimalist look will fade into the sunset, very hot one I may add. Left is my temporary entertainment center, where I have learned to convert people from being shortContinue reading “My “stuff” is finally arriving!!!!!…”
