Only in ARIDzona!

My dh says this sign isn’t unusual.  I have passed this sign countless times in the past five years we’ve lived here (on the surface of the sun) and wanted to take a picture of it. So here it is. Only in ARIDzona would you need a sign on the walkway to the public library […]

Freshly Pressed Glasses

So the other day, I’m watching TV in bed when all of a sudden I realize I can’t see!  Feeling around on my face, I discover I’m not wearing my glasses.  Apparently, I fell asleep without realizing it and woke up after a visit from the glasses fairy.  They aren’t anywhere I can see, though […]

Confession

I blame Hashi’s and Fibro for brain fog so thick I don’t remember to pray for myself.  LOL   I don’t know why it is, but I pray for my children, my dh and my friends, but I can’t seem to remember to pray for me.  I gripe, I joke, I complain, I poke fun, but […]
