U for unbelievable! People wasting tax payer money recounting election votes claiming false conclusions and fraudulent practices. If this is your state, call your government!

I suppose it was inevitable. I do not buy anything expensive (except this iPad) because I am clumsy, for one. The gifted used iPhone was fun and I had not fully found out how to use it when last Sunday I dropped it in the washer. It has been sitting in rice since then, turned off and looks okay but doesn’t really work. Sound is screwed so a sympathetic RIP my lovely. Luckily my SIM card was good and could be retrieved to install into my old phone. Now it’s deja vu all over again as I have to adjust to the old phone again. Some days I just wonder when it was my brain took a hike.

For Fandango’s Flashback Friday 4-23-2021
I’m all for knights in suits of armor
Admiring princesses, expressing ardor
Old time romance as pictured in
The movies with Bogart and Flynn
Who said fervent words, but so tender
It’s a whole new concept with today’s gender
Moon and croon and meet in the garden
Turns into quick texts of words more hardened
It’s less about love and more about sex
No longer asking for a doorstep peck
But a full on romp and not just in the hay
Where is the romance, is there any today?
Is it just “get it on” without delay?
Guess I’m just too old for this day.
Thinking with too much irony
Should just “go along” in harmony.


T for time. I have come to the conclusion that my concept of time is very different than anyone else’s. Something that may seem urgent or timely to me is not necessarily a shared concept by others. I admit I have too much time on my hands, especially in this pandemic. Even before this time of COVID, my time had always been my own since my husband’s untimely death in 2013. From then on it seemed time was flying by. It is only when I am in need of something, and think time is of the essence that life seems too slow. I realize timing is extremely important to others because of busy lifestyles. I need to resign myself that my idea of days is merely hours to most.

My complaint here may start to get monotonous, but sadly I seem to have a lot of fodder for these posts. Enjoying coffee with patio windows open to let the sun shine on my daffodil pots, I saw my neighbor across the breezeway–her door is about five feet from mine–walk by with her dog. I’ve always thought she was a nice person but saw her let her dog lift his leg on my patio which is just plain rude. Why not push him ten feet down the walk to your own blanketyblank patio?
People are disgustingly rude these days. When waiting to be picked up and it’s very windy, I try to wheel myself into a breezeway next to the handicapped parking space. This is no longer an option as the stair corners and sides of breezeways are drenched in dog pee. And with a container holding poop bags a few steps down the walk, why can’t people pick up their dog’s poop instead of leaving bits on the sidewalk?
If you have a pet, stop being so lazy–train it, and clean up after it! I do not understand the rudeness and careless attitude of these pet owners. I am in a chair on wheels, and these wheels cannot always avoid your leavings. Have some respect!

I grew up watching Fred Astaire, danced around pretending I was one of his partners, but then along came Michael Jackson who could also sing! I have to share my favorite dance video of all:

R for roll. Rolling along day to day ignoring the immutable probability that we remain typical careless individuals refusing, often secretly, the awakening offered by Mother Nature.

Thank the gods for random! In this locked down, boxed in, stifled view of life, we need a little random to jostle our minds!
