Unless they  catch me or I myself suspect a serious problem (like three band-aids won’t stop the bleeding) I do not go regularly to a doctor.  I do not even have a primary care physician, depending upon the gynocologist I … Continue reading → Continue reading →

Relief to hear the law’s no longer looking for me; an appeal was withdrawn and so I can unlock my doors and hover in the heated daylight hour. Tonight I must go a-picking.  Cucumbers each large enough to fill a … Continue reading → Continue reading →

Willie and me, hiding from the Sheriff.  Honest to God. It’s not as bad as it sounds, I mean, I’m not the bad guy.  I’ve just been warned that I’m Wanted as a witness in something I really don’t want … Continue reading → Continue reading →

After a breakfast of popcorn, I served myself an elegant bowl of Grape Nuts Trail Mix, Kashi Go-Lean with Almonds, topped off with Honey Bunches of Oats and a generous splash of milk for lunch. This should keep me healthy … Continue reading → Continue reading →
