TIME IS A RIVER

Where has the past week gone? Time is our river. We flow with it, are part of it. Sometimes, it seems to rush along faster and certainly as we age, the time goes by so quickly we barely register what has happened before we are engulfed by the next surge of white water. We think of … Continue reading TIME IS A RIVER

THE PROBLEM WITH BLOGGING

As a group, we spend a lot of time pumping ourselves up about the how great blogging is and what we can (should) do to keep enjoying it. There are a lot of great things about blogging or none of us would be doing it at all. It's a place to be creative in our … Continue reading THE PROBLEM WITH BLOGGING

TO BLOG OR NOT TO BLOG, THAT IS THE QUESTION

Fandango’s Provocative Question #109 From Fandango comes this question with which I've been wrestling for some months and to which I really don't have answers. Just more questions. "I don’t know about you, but I typically spend about four to seven (occasionally even more) hours a day on my blog, either writing, proofreading, editing, and publishing … Continue reading TO BLOG OR NOT TO BLOG, THAT IS THE QUESTION

THE CLOCK TOLLS, BUT SOMETIMES NOT SO MUCH

Owen has clocked us. Whereas I used to have one grandmother clock in the dining room that I got from my first husband as a second anniversary gift -- received while I was in the hospital during my long, long recovery from spinal surgery -- which no longer ran, I now have four chiming clocks … Continue reading THE CLOCK TOLLS, BUT SOMETIMES NOT SO MUCH

TIME AND TIME AGAIN

As kids, we can't imagine getting old. I suppose that's normal, especially in this society where young people have very few experiences with elders and are not taught to respect or admire their accomplishments. I didn't have any living grandparents. All four of them died before I was five, so I really had zero experience … Continue reading TIME AND TIME AGAIN

MUSINGS ON TIME – BY ELLIN CURLEY

Recently I’ve been more aware of the passage of time in several different ways. Since quarantine began, every morning when I look in the mirror and start brushing my teeth, I think, “I remember yesterday morning when I did the exact same thing. Here we go again, another day.” I also think of the classic … Continue reading MUSINGS ON TIME – BY ELLIN CURLEY

REGRETS, I’VE HAD A FEW – Rich Paschall

But Then Again, Why Mention? by Rich Paschall We all have regrets, that's for sure.  You can not lead a life without them.  You may regret that first stumble and fall, if you remember it at all.  You may regret dropping that toy.  You may regret letting go of that balloon.  You may regret throwing … Continue reading REGRETS, I’VE HAD A FEW – Rich Paschall

WHAT TIME IS IT? – Rich Paschall

Does Anybody Really Know? by Rich Paschall What is the most valuable thing you have? Do you think it is your house? For most people, a house will be the most expensive thing they purchase in their lifetime. Personally, I do not own a house, so this definitely is not it for me. Considering the … Continue reading WHAT TIME IS IT? – Rich Paschall

BIRDS EAT ON TIME IF THE BUFFET IS OPEN – Marilyn Armstrong

Birds eat on time IF I fill the buffet Birds know what time it is. They don't wear watches, but they know. Breakfast and dawn come together. Lunch when the sun is high in the sky and dinner before nightfall. It's good that at least one mealtime falls during my awake time! And as long as … Continue reading BIRDS EAT ON TIME IF THE BUFFET IS OPEN – Marilyn Armstrong

TIME IN HAND AGAIN: SQUARE FOR BECKY B – Marilyn Armstrong

Time in My Palm - Square for Becky B Time in my hand again, this time the gold watch. Also an Elgin, but not an Elgin-Waltham. I get confused about who owned which company and when. Companies bought each other, consolidated. It is very confusing. Garry posted the last piece on Facebook in the hope of … Continue reading TIME IN HAND AGAIN: SQUARE FOR BECKY B – Marilyn Armstrong
