Old Friends
WOW, what a surprise I just had! I was just walking out of my office to the front counter and I saw a blonde woman get out of a car that was parked in front of the store. I thought to myself, "Boy, that looks just like Jen. But why on earth would Jen be here?" Now, Jen lives, with her husband and daughter, two Australian Shepherds, and a couple of cats , in Michigan. So the chances of her arriving on my doorstep are pretty slim. So this blonde walks in, I said hi, she said hi, but she had ...

Author Elizabeth Cunningham Interview
In anticipation of Elizabeth's visit to the store in October, I had the distinct pleasure of speaking with her about some of her background, and getting a sneak peek (of sorts) at what the next - and sadly, the last - installment of The Maeve Chronicles will be about. Read on! Please tell us about your childhood, growing up in ...

Weekend in Rhode Island
We were actually able to get away for Saturday and Sunday and had a great time in Rhode Island on a mini-vacation, where I got to meet one of Doug's cousins I'd never met before. We managed to wade our way through all the traffic in CT and RI. It's amazing how badly they drive up there, unless everyone was just ...

What To Blog About Today?
I've been wondering what to blog about lately. Murv Sellars, author (I was going to add extraordinaire but I don't want him to get a big head on my account) suggested I continue a comment I made on one of his blogs about horrendous airline trips. He was waxing poetic - as he's prone to do - about a recent horror ...

Happy Belated Birthday, America
I wanted to write this over the weekend and just totally ran out of time. I guess that's a good thing, because we were busy, but a totally relaxing busy. Both Doug and I really needed the time off, and we got it. Friday night we had some friends over for a small bbq. Doug made an incredible pork tenderloin and ...

They’re Dropping Like Flies, Unfortunately
So June started off with David Carradine dying. Then it was Ed McMahon, followed closely by Farrah Fawcett and Michael Jackson. A couple of days later Gayle Storm passed. For those of us old enough to remember, she was the star of the 1950's sitcom, My Little Margie. Then Billy Mays died. Doug and I hoped that June would end with those six ...

Weekend Update with Jane Curtin
Well, not quite. But this is a weekend update, nonetheless. On Saturday afternoon, some of my cousins (Geri, Scott, Ryan, and Nathan) from Houston TX came up. They're here on vacation and had a couple of free hours, so I was finally going to meet Scott and Nathan for the first time, not having seen Geri or Ryan in over 10 years. They got stuck ...
