  • Okay…someone explain this to me because I’m dissatisfied!

    When I lived in Iowa.  Dr Phil was going from channel 8 – CBS to channel 5 – ABC.  When I finally changed over to the Kansas City station – Dr Phil is still on CBS.  Live with whats-her-name and Michael Strahan were on CBS or ABC in Iowa…here they are on FOX.  Don’t these… Read more

  • Neighborhood mowing day etiquette, garbage day etiquette, social media etiquette….

    I’ll begin by saying..ya…I know…I need to find something to do today if I have time to think about these things… I haven’t lived in a neighborhood setting since I was a kid – around 18.  Living in the country on 2 1/2 acres you just mow your grass when you want to mow it.… Read more

    Listen carefully to what this person is going to say.  She is at IHOP in Lee’s Summit.  She is waiting for her ham and egg omelet stuffed with cheese and her add-on 4 cinnamon roll pancakes which she is going to smother with butter pecan syrup.  She is going to do this because she ate… Read more

  • Reading about #Sally Hemings..

    Not going to go very deep into this subject because I fear the hate it stirs up…and I don’t need or want the negativity in my life right now; and, I have no desire to spend any amount of time defending my words when those who will want to argue don’t know what is inside… Read more

  • It was totally worth the wait….

    Mildly disappointed that they don’t have the strong peonies scent but they are beautiful.  Color is my thing…I’m very moved by color and my mood is affected by color and music, of course. Finally got cushions for the rocking chair that I bought last fall at Ice House Auction.  Jax has been trying to sit… Read more
