Lazy Saturday open thread
Busy, busy, busy. You’ll have to talk amongst yourselves. I’m not home, and I forgot the cable for the camera, so the pictures are currently trapped on a memory stick.

Scratch a liberal…
I lost another liberal friend today. I put a link on Facebook to this article. He said that even though Dems get millions of dollars from Wall Street, the money doesn’t affect their votes. I told him he was naive. … Continue reading

It’s not the holiday weekend, it’s the writing
I was writing my novel today. That’s part of the reason things are slow around here. My fiction is more important to my future than this blog will ever be. Which is not to say that the blog will go … Continue reading

You know, I forgot to post something today. I was busy doing things that aren’t blogging. Like exercising. I rejoined my fitness center and also joined their Crazy Eights program, where you pay $20 to lose eight pounds in eight … Continue reading

News I can woo!
I had a bone density scan done this morning, because my mother suffers from very bad osteoperosis. I do not have it. That is SUCH a relief. Bad enough I have her arthritis (and it’s in the lower three discs … Continue reading

Ah, three-day weekends. Let’s see, I got up late, lazed around the house, my niece came over, we had a nice dinner, and decided to go see Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Part Two–again. Now she’s downstairs watching the … Continue reading

Dodged a pretty large bullet here
Tree down behind my condo. It’s resting on the other tree, not on the condo behind me. Phew! On the good side: I can see the hummingbirds behind me again. Those trees grew fast this year. Here’s another shot:
