Bingo Today!

I sit next to a firecracker of a gal at bingo. She is 92 and has a very dry sense of humor along with a hot temper...short in the patience department. I could tell she was getting frustrated several times today. I'd look at her and she was wearing a particular look on her face which let me know she was irked. I'd just smile back and pet her on the back. One such time she said: "I probably shouldn't have come today. I'm not feeling very patient." With a completely straight face I asked her if she was having her period. It took only a milisecond to register and then we both busted up!!!

Lizard Sleepover!



Yesterday evening I noticed a smallish lizard resting on the passenger pillow on my bed. I sat and visited with her for a bit and then went on with my bidness. When I got into bed last night I was flurffing my pillows to get them just right and I saw my new lizard friend tucked into the crevice between my pillows. That is where she spent the night and is, at this very moment, still hanging out. It is at times like this that I am filled with gratitude for the life I get to have...one that allows the time and space to notice and be with experiences just like this!

When Food Is Love


It's All Relative

A gal at bingo just celebrated her 92nd birthday! She was telling me how someone had made her day by guessing that she was ONLY in her 80's!!!
