I’ve got a lot of jewelry. Most of it is unique, hand-made, locally designed designer jewelry. Since I do not wear jewelry on a daily basis, I like to make it count when I do. I’m just not satisfied to walk into a chain store and buy something that 1000 other women in my zip […]

I have an irrational attachment to my old digital camera. I know how to use it so well, so thoroughly, that I think I am afraid to start over with a new camera. I have an old Olympus and even though it is only 2.1 MegaPixils, I know how to make it sing and can […]

Sometimes I actually long for the days when a conversation between my sister and I centered on the topics of cute boys, after-school jobs, cool songs, and borrowing each other’s clothes. We may not have got along as well when we were teens, but that lack of stress and responsibility in my young life holds […]

I always liked Netflix. There were a few glitches, yes. Sometimes it felt like there as a conspiracy as to who was actually getting the new movies first. Every now and then I felt like it took too long for the warehouse to log my movies back in for return. Other than that, it was […]

I’ve been keeping my eye on the commercial contest over at the Dockers website. They have invited anyone who feels up to the challenge to make a commercial about Dockers pants and there have been some pretty creative responses to the call.
I know it is more than likely too irreverent to win the Dockers contest, […]

I was on the phone with a friend tonight and stream of consciousness conversation being what it is; I eventually landed on the topic of the film “Over the Edge”. It’s a 1979 teen iconic film. Also, it has a killer soundtrack. I looked on YouTube for the film trailer to show the friend and […]

There are so many great things about the internet. Most of them involve the access you have to shopping, information, and interaction without the need to actually leave your house. Take, for example, seminars that you can “attend” imply tuning into a web cast online. There are online seminars, or webinars, on pretty much any […]

I’ve been missing my glass top range ever since moving into my current home. I loved how easy it was to clean and how quickly it heated and cooled back down to a safe temperature. I’ve been thinking seriously about upgrading the stove here and going back to a glass top. That is, until I […]

I know that kids today are more than likely making their first music purchase in an MP3 format, but back when I was a kid, it was all about 45s. Yes, records. Can you even believe it?
So, I was thinking recently about the first song I bought with my own money. I’m not counting records […]

For years my mother, my sister, and I have sat around at various times and debated the whole burial vs. cremation issue. We talk about religious implications, economic points, personal preference, and even the option of green burial (Florida does have one green cemetery up in the Panhandle).
We completely overlooked one option, apparently. It turns […]
