Good afternoon from a cool, windy day in Green Bay, Wisconsin, USA. Currently, it's 43 F, but feels much colder because of the wind.
It's been a good day today.
I'm thankful for the time I spent with you today. It's always a...

pumpkinjam I've had a fairly relaxed day, so I'm thankful for that. My eldest son has done some research for me for my next article. My youngest has spent the day creating YouTube videos for his channel.
I'm thankful for my lovely husband. He does a lot for us. We've...

I wore one today that is 20 years old..I know exactly how old it is as it was one of the old Navy flag shirts they have every year around the 4th. It says 2004 on it. Now, I don't think I have worn this shirt all that often,...

pumpkinjam I got rid of a lot of t-shirts (and other clothes) after losing weight. There was no point keeping clothes that didn't fit. However, there are a couple of special ones that I did keep. I'm not sure how old my Bob Marley one is. I have a graduation t-shirt that...

Many times, when dining out at a restaurant one gets a choice of soup or salad along with your meal. I usually opt for the salad, it's not as filling as soup, so I have room to enjoy my main course. There have been times where I...

pumpkinjam We wouldn't normally be offered soup or salad [i][/i]with a main course, unless it is specifically soup and a sandwich. We might have a salad or a choice of potato/rice with a main but soup (usually with bread) would be offered as a starter.
I sometimes like...

Happy Monday, everyone! I would've posted this earlier, but I got to the coffee shop later than I had intended. I just wanted to share my little to-do list for the week. I like to write (or type) out my goals or tasks. It puts...

pumpkinjam My to-do list is quite short -
Work (9-5 boring office job)
Clean bathroom
Finish a woodwork project
Work on my book and/or article
Book a summer holiday
I think the last three things on the list will probably have to be at the weekend. Other than my list, I...

Living life on auto-pilot means waking up, doing daily tasks, going to bed, and repeating the steps all over again. with the years passing by, one may end up with some feeling of emptiness, instead one should relish those times of...

pumpkinjam I do sometimes feel like I'm on auto-pilot. The boring routine is necessary (work, chores, etc) but I do try to break it up. I have a few hobbies that I can do, and I like to make plans so I've always got someone to look forward to - whether that's a holiday,...

I think that the English language is so interesting. I always did well in this subject in school. When I look up a word it is so interesting to me to see what the word is derived from. What language that is.
I have been working...

Some people think that their lives are incomplete. I do respect that because they are into this kind of relationship. Some singles out there accepted the fact that life is fine without any partners. I am one of them. I can still...

Well, I hadn’t done a post about it officially because I knew I’d cry, and I am. Friday, I found out my 35 year old cousin, Casey, was found dead in his home by his dad. They suspect it was a heart attack as he was 6’6 and 350...
