I'm waiting on the UPS truck. It's not here yet. Just in case you're wondering why I haven't been here much this morning. I want to set up my new computer before I do a lot of writing. So, other than waiting impatiently for the...

Mary McKinney That's so aggravating, isn't it? A couple weeks ago I ordered a Samsung watch and watched the tracking on it. 9:30 is late for our mail to run so I was getting anxious for her to get here so I could get my watch. She didn't run until nearly 2:00! I have...

Mary McKinney I've always been a bit of a girly girl. Even to this day I don't want to get messy and when I do I have to shower as soon as I can.

Mary McKinney Yeah, hubby is 65 and with his surgery not long ago he hasn't been able to do a lot. But he did pass the knowledge down to our sons.

We (Bearl Jam) played music at Bonehead's BBQ in Lafayette CA last night. It was a good time, and many people showed up. But there was a wrinkle: the new ownership "forgot" to tell me that the place did not have a new liquor...

Mary McKinney @TheHorse That is fabulous!! I read Bruce Springsteens book where he said when he started playing small bar venues they would make $25 a night. But that was back in the late 60s I believe.

Mary McKinney Indulging the grandkids is my favorite part of being a grandma! Sometimes I think maybe I do a little too much indulging, but nahhh, no way.

Mary McKinney My day is better than it was all weekend. I literally didn't want to do anything, but I did get the grandkids room cleaned up. It really was a complete disaster area.

Mary McKinney I love plants too, but I cannot maintain them. Don't ask me why but every plant I get, they die. So now, I just buy them and leave the maintenance to my husband.

Mary McKinney I've never tried to sell my crochet things, but I'm thinking about doing Christmas crocheting and participating in the craft fair that they have in my small city and selling there. The craft fair takes place the first weekend in December.

Mary McKinney That boy can definitely eat. And he's tall (6 ft) and pretty slim (150 lbs). If I ate like that I would be 5 ft 8 and 300 lbs! OVERNIGHT!

Well, the “first half” of the baseball season is in the books. A misnomer (most teams have played 91 of their 162 games), but that’s what they call the All-Star Break. Can’t believe the Cincinnati Reds are in first place. Since...
