Thank you!
Yes, crows are very intelligent birds! They talk to me while I'm walking, too. I tell them, "Stay off my doorstep!" but obedience is not their strong point. ha ha!

I know it's been long. We're doing well, getting older, enjoying family and friends, watching too much TV (oldie shows, mostly). Tommy had back surgery in February and is recovering well. This was his fourth back surgery…

That sounds wonderful! I remember when we camped in tents. My husband made a portable "kitchen" that sounds somewhat like yours. I have happy memories from those days!
How are you two doing these days? I've missed you.

Oh, yes! Mma Ramotswe - I like her, too! I also like Mr. Q (Jim Qwilleran of The Cat Who books) and Father Tim of the Mitford series of books. My favorite is Jean Valjean, for his commitment to honesty and compassion. I …

Cats. In 50 years we've had 8 cats and one dog. We loved our dog, a mostly quiet, easy-tempered part dachshund, but are partial to cats. Each pet has its own individual personality, like people.

It must have been the 1980s when they started becoming popular, that was a decade of extravagant sweaters. I have one with poinsettias and cardinals on it, and I rather like it! It's a cardigan, not a pullover, so I can …

We had a tease of autumn weather a few weeks ago, but it warmed up again with highs in the 80s! (Fahrenheit)
When it gets chilly again, I want to make some chili with ground beef and red kidney beans.

Cute! I, too, found the pop-up ads annoying, Covert. I thought I could stop them by hitting the "X" but they kept on.
Cute idea, but I'm like mojosmom - I need the space for books!

I’m not picky about that either. Nice to know for the next time I get a frozen meal with those directions.

I do like the wrapped, microwaveable russet potatoes and sweet potatoes, and the Birdseye (brand) steamed vegetables. We have them often with a meat dish that I’ve cooked. Neither of those have the start and stop and res…
