Life is Tough But so are YOU

    It was my freshman year in high school when a teacher asked me if I was happy. I replied, "Yes." She rejoined, "You just *think* you are."

    Now, more than 50 years later I would (still) ask, "If I *think* I am, what difference does it make?"

    I don't like have my strength tested. I enjoy enjoying life.

    And I have all the "character" I need.

    Cute photo.

      Thanks!
      One man's ceiling is another man's floor period how dare that teacher do that. She was thinking within her own LIMITED box.

      Sorry, my stupid voice to text writes out the word period at the last minute by auto correcting it from a dot. I'm on my phone and I have no idea how to edit or delete my comment. I'm about ready to kill my phone!

      Who did the leather work?

      I looked up Bennett-Henry and found a southern gurl poet. Is it she who did the leather work?

      Can you provide some links?

    I have no clue. It was for sale on Etsy. I just took a screenshot of the center of the piece.

Greedy-ass fees

Recently, I read a post on social media that one of our local dentists is now charging a $90.00  "disinfection fee" to patients.  My comment: " Maybe I am seeing this all wrong, but I think that is sheer greed and smacks of resentment that the business was patronized at all!  To me, it's like charging a shoveling fee to a business that experienced a heavy snow and salt had to be used for the ice problem. Or a sweeping fee because the front of a business had to be swept after leaves fell, and solvent had to be used to remove some stains or gum, or maybe it needed to be pressure washed. Or like charging a dishwashing/table bussing fee to a customer at a restaurant because added disinfecting product needed to be used.  I know that ALL businesses visited by the public are having to ramp up disinfecting. I know it is more work and more of an expense. BUT it needs to be automatically done - this pandemic is not our fault!  $90 per patient for 10 patients = $900.00. I ...

Thinking out loud - a rant

WARNING: This is kind of a rant - thinking "out loud" I suppose. I need to blog a lot more, but I don’t, and I need to “journal”, but I don’t ... It’s just really difficult for me to do that (distracted, no focus, etc...) so once in awhile I’ll write it out. Pass it by if you don’t wanna read it. If I were someone else, I doubt I’d want to! It’s after 8:00 a.m. on a Thursday & I haven't slept since 3:00 o'clock Tuesday afternoon. I always feel tired - but I have insomnia and I don't feel sleepy . But I constantly feel/am exhausted . I have Epstein Barr Virus/chronic fatigue, so this is an ongoing battle. I absolutely hate it. I slept until 3:00 PM Tuesday because I didn't go to bed until 5:00 a.m. If I can fall out and get into a good deep sleep, I can sleep for 10-12 hours only waking up a few times to empty the bladder. It's the falling into the deep sleep that's the problem. I have GERD and a Hiatal hernia, so I used to wake up a lot choki...
