Flooding the Zone,
which I'm reading is actually a political term, whereby someone does a whole bunch of different things in all directions in order to cause confusion. Well, that's not what flooding the zone means to me. For me, it was a literal flood. Confusion, yes, but that was all in my brain, the confusion.

Kevin’s Happy Day
Wednesday, August 4th, Kevin's 64th birthday...after he'd gone to bed the night before I came up with the brilliant idea of leaving him a voicemail singing "when I'm 64." I wasn't sure where his...

Just one picture

Alive!
I lived through my surgery, yay for that! Gee, it's been way over a week since it happened. Much has happened, but not so much. First - two days before my surgery, June 22nd, Les Paul and Riley were...
No high heels!
Jeez, where has the month gone? Well, oing yard work. Lots of yard work. It's 6:18 a.m. right now and we have to leave at 7:30 for my torn meniscus surgery. It's so lovely and quiet at this time of...
