Constants in a world that is changing

Digital, mixed pictures, some in the form of a coffee table book, traditional pictures, dry matted, oh yes and he shows the pictures on a DVD so you can decide what you want....

Change in the time

It sure would be nice to forget changing time each Spring and Fall. I tried to do some telephone calls this morning and realized the time difference and I had to stop and wait. Actually I had a couple of cups of coffee and did some mail. HOWEVER, we will get to go thru the process of adjusting our... Sign in to see full entry.

a pretty beagle dog. The traffic was heavy on I-64 and I couldn't stop. The dog had been hit by a car and looked like he had expired. What can you do? The speed limit was 65 mph and of course the traffic was going faster. I called the highway police and they were going to look into it. Well, I hope... Sign in to see full entry.

I got to tell you, it is the tought of it that

scares me. A wedding at my age. Well, it is what I wanted. My friends are trying to calm me down, but the questions they ask aren't really helping.

There but for the grace of God, goes I,

I took her flowers

My friend Frances was a busy mother, wife and clubwoman. I met her about 30 years ago working on a community project. Our daughters attended Cotillion classes and were fond of each other.
