Do not fear.  Nothing gross, naughty or disgusting.  This one is to remove any thought whatsoever about my belief  of thinking that “I thought I was someone important.” Back in the days when Ron was getting in and out of the hospital due to his illness, one particular day he was getting a CT-Scan andContinue reading “Toilet paper episode…”

Today (Friday) I almost went into a panic episode.  It was almost time to have lunch (I was so into trying to finish the quilt this year) that when I went to pull the stuff out for my lunch my empty stomach had a breakdown.  No enough lettuce for my usual grazing!  That meant thatContinue reading “One of my favorite piece of equipment…”

As you already know, I am watching this soap opera (novela) called “India, A Love Story,”  that takes place in Brazil, Dubai and India.    The following scene was played in yesterday’s episode. The CEO of this big conglomerate (Cadore) is just coming into his office.  His assistant (a man) started talking to him aboutContinue reading “Ego buster…”

  The time was early 90’s in Herndon, Virginia.  As you will notice I am not abbreviating the State of Virginia as VA.  Just to please my word counter nanobeing inside my computer.  Back to the picture.  I remember that day vividly.  I got so claustrophobic inside the house that I put on my coat,Continue reading “Winter has taken over…”

We have the dog days of summer, so I now proclaim the bear days of winter.  Don’t they (bears) hibernate all winter long?  I am ready.  Well…not really.  Have to eat, color my hair, read the newspaper, my precious books, magazines, well, you get the idea. Just remembered a few extra things for this highContinue reading “Lazy day of winter…”

Probably you are thinking…She flipped!  Not so fast nanobeings.  This is my interpretation of atoms, molecules, protons, electrons and energy projecting out of their nucleus.  This was the best of what I was able to come up with for illustration purposes.  I have this need to use only my pictures (only one other image has been used). Continue reading “Nanotechnology and what it does have to do with us…”

Dinero, monnaie, mulah, all of these boil down to…show me the money. This morning (Sunday) while reading the newspaper, there was an article of this woman, her husband and one daughter that were going to go without shopping for food, gifts or other stuff, that we just buy on a whim, for the whole monthContinue reading “Money, money, money, money, and money again…”

When I open my eyes first thing in the morning, first thought is “thank you Lord that I am still around, please give me the energy and enthusiasm I need today to make it a good one.  I cannot afford to be depressed.  Please protect and bless my family and my friends.  Thank you Lord,Continue reading “The new and improved, for now, breakfast…”

This was the day I became a very proud citizen of the United States of America.  September 28, 1996.  It is like my date of birth.  I never will forget it.  Sometimes I wonder if all Americans being born here shouldn’t go through a ceremony at 18 years of age, like the one I didContinue reading “How does an activist look like…”

I remember when Milagros, Ron and I moved to Florida because Ron had retired.  After getting kind of settled in a fixer upper (it has potential , was what we decided when we looked at the house for the first time), I wanted to go out and get a job, because financially,  we needed the income. Continue reading “My adventures as an antiquarian bookseller…”
