Now in the late autumn of my life, because of macular Read more about #223…Changing of the Colors, Of Course![…]
Laying there in bed at 3 AM with the thunderstorms screaming around me, I was so filled with thoughts, of ideas…of autumn! Time for a blog. So my thoughts are on the future.

I went to a friend’s garage sale Friday and came home with several “treasures”!

9 lbs may sound like a pittance, maybe a good office joke today, but consider that for 10 years, I have steadily eaten and drank my way to be the PLEASANTLY PLUMP person that I am.
