Do books and movies corrupt our view of life?

Yes, as I have said before, I have a profile on an online dating site. I blog there as well as here but here is today’s question or thought. Do books and movies corrupt our view of life? I have a very busy life and very busy weekend. I am actively – probably not as… Continue reading Do books and movies corrupt our view of life?

On the Road …. Yet Again

It is beautiful outside – already 60F which is unusual for this time of year where I live. I am on my way…. to Niagara Falls. It is one of my favorite road trips and I make it about 12 times a year. I am heading to Lewiston and Niagara Falls to pick up my… Continue reading On the Road …. Yet Again

Hooray for Memorial Day!

Yes, it is true! Memorial Day weekend is upon us which means so is the unofficial start to the summer season and I can’t wait.

On the Road Again

My spring road trips have been few and far between for me. Normally, spring consists of trips every weekend. This year, there have been three so far. There was the March trip to Niagara Falls for my daughter’s first honor society induction. This was a quick day trip. There was the weekend trip to New… Continue reading On the Road Again

I’m Really Not Biased

I know no one could ever tell but I am really not biased. Yes, I did a huge, extremely long blog entry on the first democratic debate and nothing on either of the two republican debates but I swear I can justify. First off, I am a registered democrat. This means I will really only… Continue reading I’m Really Not Biased

What is it about May and June?

What is it about May and June that they are so busy? My May calendar barely has any white space on it. Thankfully, the one bare spot it had was the Saturday of Memorial Day weekend. This is normally a travel weekend for me. I have spent recent Memorial Day weekends at soccer tournaments in… Continue reading What is it about May and June?

Here Comes the Plaza

  For those of you who don’t know it, I am a huge hockey fan. Worse than that, I live in upstate NY and am not a big Buffalo Sabres fan (they are okay and if they are the last team left standing I would be fine with that). I am also not a NJ… Continue reading Here Comes the Plaza

A Constant Planner

I admit that I am a planner. I don’t mind being spontaneous but I like to know that my contingencies have been covered. I am the woman who could have written the government’s ready site for them. I am not a naysayer but I do like knowing who is where when something happens. That would… Continue reading A Constant Planner
