Eversince they discovered that I suffered from hypothyroidism, I received a “thorn on my side”. One of the effects of this malady is constipation. I now take a stool softener every day to counteract this effect. It has been successful but there are days when I have no No 2. I patiently take my medicineContinue reading “THE THORN ON MY SIDE”

Happy Easter!
I wish to greet everyone a Happy Easter. Today, people are happy. Lent was a time of self-sacrifice. I remember talking to my best friend about how Lent was making me depressed. It never fails to do that, it seems. I think it was meant for me as a Catholic, to feel the sorrow ofContinue reading “Happy Easter!”
Breakfast
Today I woke up early and made breakfast. I made oatmeal and it was good. I feel like I had a good breakfast that gave me a boost. Usually I sleep in but today I made sure that I start my day prompt and early. But before I took breakfast, I watch Mass on TVContinue reading “Breakfast”

Hacking
Today someone wanted to hack into my website. I took care of that immediately. There won’t be a snowball’s chance in Hell that hackers can get in anymore. So be forewarned, Big Brother is watching.
Why Travel?
It’s a cool morning in my city today. The air is chilly. I received pictures from a friend who went to Mexico for the holidays. The pictures look colorful and depicted the way of life in several cities in Mexico. I call my friend brave for traveling to Mexico. For one thing, the border isContinue reading “Why Travel?”
My Pal Joey
As I watched my dog Joey settle down to crouch next to my feet, I felt an onrush of gratefulness for my pet. Joey’s a challenge to me. He can be sad after my cats, or he can ignore them (much preferable) and go for the dishtowels on the island in the kitchen. He’s aContinue reading “My Pal Joey”
Reconciliation
My cousin and I had a spat several years ago. I wasn’t in my right mind when that happened. She took it to heart and wouldn’t forgive me. When I had money, I consulted a nurse practitioner who was good at behavioral services. I didn’t tell him about the spat. But he changed my medicineContinue reading “Reconciliation”
