A few days ago, I talked about ordering clothes through Stitch Fix, so naturally, I was drawn to a clothing post and the ordering and designing of a wrap dress. My first choice is from Laurie on the other side of the pond. Laurie at Vanity and Me designed her wrap around dress and she…
Good Evening dear readers and I hope you are not digging out from under many, many inches of snow and/or ice. I have been absent for a couple days as my only daughter and grand daughter #3 escaped the 13 degree temps of the midwest, for some warm rays of SW Florida. We had a…
Picture this. The Captain and I, all cozy with a furry throw. All the lights are off with only the faint blue glow from the television screen and the twinkling lights of the Christmas tree. A favorite beverage. A Christmas cookie…or two. And Jimmy Stewart saying to Donna Reed….“What is it you want, Mary? What…
Hiccups Remedy?? I just had the hiccups and I immediately got rid of the hiccups. I thought to myself I should repeat this remedy with you my dear readers. I have tried breathing into a bag or having someone jump out and scare me or even holding my breath …all to no avail. My hiccups remained…
Red, White & Boom!!! July 4th is Friday….and the beginning of the Holiday week-end. In Cape Coral, there is a huge celebration on Independence Day! *Our local Chamber of Commerce website states: “While not always called, Red, White & BOOM, Cape Coral has boasted one of the largest fireworks shows in Southwest Florida for over…
Movie Review..or not! Movies! I do like to see movies. I like movies in theaters and I like movies on TV! I also like to purchase movies that are exceptionally good and I watch them over and over. I know …I am weird like that. 😉 I have seen some movies so…

(Rock Chalk Jayhawk) !!! Sorry, I just had to do that! 🙂 And we mustn’t forget the big Super Bowl Football Game tomorrow! Go…
This morning, I went out to my Secret Garden and was greeted by my little kitten in the hammock, which hangs on our pergola ….as I paused, I smiled and my thoughts drifted to the song “The Cat’s in the Cradle”! As you can see, this little kitten is sleeping away ….. dreaming of…
The Captain and I went to see this movie and it was very insightful. I expected something far different from the story that was told. I did enjoy the movie, but not in the way I thought I would. I believe I was thinking a lighthearted comedy with cartoon characters would be a fun afternoon….
The Captain and I have always enjoyed the beauty around us…. brilliant sunsets and sunrises, birds in flight, the unfolding bloom as a flower bursts forth with color, majestic mountains, rolling fields of golden wheat rippling under the wind. Retirement allows me to pause longer! 🙂 I find I want to snap more pictures to…
Hey Ya’ll…It is 2023 and I have had a few friends tell me this link wasn’t working when they tried to go to it from my New Years Post yesterday. I believe the link is working, but thought I would repost this just in case you could not link to it. I will also give…
Have you seen the movie Philomena? The Captain and I had a “date” which included dinner and a movie yesterday! We have occasional dates… We think it keeps things fresh…by things I mean our relationship…yes, and a little exciting! Sometimes we “meet up” at a pre-designated restaurant and after a delightful dinner decide to leave…
