Replacing the much lamented 'On My Mind' profile option, this thread is for musings, jottings, whimsies, preoccupations and the rest of the thesaurus for anyone to jot down anything they please.
I can't remember what the maximum character count was before, can anyone else? But anyway it wasn't very many so let's keep to that.
Is it just me or has this been a real witch of a year? Some blessings, of course, but, lots of heartache too. My dad took a downward turn and just returned home from rehab, I lost one of my best friends in the spring at age 59 and today, I just got a call from another good friend who's in surgical ICU. He's spinal cord surgery bound in a couple of days. He's almost 81 years old and I'm feeling pretty nervous. It makes me wonder what is going on?
I am just putting them in the TRASH where they belong!
LOL.

And blessed for a neighbor that cleared off my driveway, with his mini tractor, while I was away and upon return could get into the garage.
I am certainly overwhelmed by all the support and well wishes I've received both here and in real life.
I was forced to accept that I can't do it all alone and agree to allow people to help.
I for sure have a new empathy for people facing cancer and even surgery of any kind - it's not so routine as we pretend it is.
What a treat! Fun to at least see the snow nearby on the news.
I adore California. You truly live in one of the most beautiful states in our country. California is lovely. I always enjoyed visiting there.
One of my most precious memories with my dad was building a small snowman in our yard as a kid. We had so much fun!
The snow is on the news.
Cannot take pictures because the snow is hours away, not here in my yard.
Cannot drive there because the roads are closed.
Many years ago, I did take a photo of a tiny snowman I built in my yard, and that was fun because it was so rare. But, like you, there was very little snow, lasting only an hour or two.
We always want or like what we do not have. However, I am still content to have the beaches nearby, within an hour's drive. A day trip can take us from Malibu to Huntington Beach and back, or even to Santa Barbara and back, just beautiful beaches, waves, skies, and a ferris wheel.
Hahaha. We can barely call it snow here. We get a few flurries. Everything closes down because people here don’t know how to drive in snow!
It's raining outside just now. The SNOW is over the I-5 grapevine pass @ over 4000 ft., said to be snowing down to 3000 ft.
Guessing it is winter now.
I’ll be ruminating on it until I see the dentist on Monday
One of my elder brothers is schizophrenic so I know what it's like to be around a mental illness but it still never makes you feel safe when you are out in public. and see it.
My younger brother was was diagnosed with Parkinson’s several months ago. He has applied to the WVU program.
