This morning I went to purchase some lottery tickets.  Have to keep the hope alive to have condos in every city I love.  Paris, Sarasota, Washington, D.C., La Romana, Puerto Plata, and any other place that will suit my pleasure.  Without those tickets, only hope is to keep living my very happy, peaceful, and contentedContinue reading ““And…how old are you?”…”

  Yesterday I celebrated my 150th post!!.  Also, I am celebrating another milestone in viewership total.  It could be the same person reading the posts twice or three times, but little bits do add up.  The blog has been translated to French, Chinese or Japanese and Spanish.  Even though my readers like to keep aContinue reading “One hundred and fifty posts…150!!!!!!”

I hope that by now you get it that I am fascinated with our space program.  Before I forget, let me express my appreciation to NASA TV.  I took these photographs this morning while watching on my computer the countdown for the lift-off of Endeavour. I always in my life have been a very curious person.  I am interestedContinue reading “Honoring Space Shuttle Endeavour and its crew…”

I was just thinking…have I already done a posting with this subject matter?  I don’t know.  If you are like me…I have already forgotten and there will be a few surprises on this one.  Every day brings a new set of surprises…or not. My Sunday mornings are very special.  I feel more relaxed that onContinue reading “Why routines are so important…for me…”

  This weekend I am off to Selma, North Carolina to go antiquing.  I love to be surrounded by old furniture, books, linens, paintings, magazines (of course), in general,  old pieces that remind me sometimes of my childhood.  It may be the odor of old wood, old books or just seeing and touching, and sometimes buyingContinue reading “Going antiquing…to keep in touch with my aging roots…”

This one is from my Memories Trunk… The picture above was of a friend of mine and myself making an attempt to pretend to play tennis.  To my friend my apologies for cutting you off the picture, but I didn’t have your consent to use your image.  Copyrights issues.  To continue…Why were we making anContinue reading “Tennis anyone…1970’s memories…how to catch a catch…”

  This past Sunday, on Mother’s Day, one of the cutest angels in my neighborhood knocked on my door and brought me a very sweet, reddish looking and cooling to my taste buds strawberry frappe.  I am salivating right now thinking about having the little bit leftover. After saying “Happy Mother’s Day” to me sheContinue reading “I didn’t get the memo…”

The most shocking news of my newspaper this morning to me was the headline “SETI is shutting down its alien hunt.”  An article by L. Krieger.  SETI stands for Search for Extra Terrestrial Intelligence.  Now that all of that has been established, I am still recovering from such sobering piece of news. What am IContinue reading “Even E.T. will have to change phone plans…”

One of my most prized possessions are my magazines.  Love my magazines.  Maybe it is because they take me to places I may never be able to visit, go into homes that portray places I would have liked to live in, be an inhabitant of beautiful and dreamy gardens, or just plain absorb what people IContinue reading “Letting go…letting go…and more letting go…”

I became a mommy the first day I found out I was pregnant.  Did you notice I said “I”, not “we” as in these days.  The good old days making room for the better newer days.  Officially I was blessed with a vision of my Milagros on November 12, 1979 at 11:58 am.  After a lotContinue reading “Mother’s Day…Have a happy and peaceful day…”
