The Big "F" Word.....

FREE - it's my favorite 4-letter "F" word!     Freedom, Liberating, out of bondage.   Are you in a relationship that makes you feel as if you're afraid to say anything regarding your feelings? And, when you do say what you "feel"

New Term: "One and a Half"....

I was in a conversation the other day with a man that is a friend of a friend of mine, and I asked if he was in a relationship right now. He replied that, yes, he had a significant other and a half. A "half"? What is a "Half"? Well, he said, she

Identifying a Flake

No, I'm not talking about frosted flakes. Genuine flakey people is the topic this evening. They have magical words to start with to woo you. Then, it becomes suspicious. As in everything that you do is questioned. You may not relize that the person is

+++NEVER+++ it's not my Place.

"Never" is a word that I just can't use. I'm sorry, I applied for the job of God, and was told I wasn't qualified. (Big rejection there - but I got over it). When people ask me, "You mean he/she will NEVER change" how in the world can I see "never"? NO

OH FOR CRYING OUT LOUD - GIVE THE DOG BACK!

Once again, the headlines have gotten my dander up, and I need to vent. Once again, it's about a dog. Ellen De-Generous adopted a dog from a rescue outfit in California. Try as much as she wanted, the dog did not adapt well to her household. So, she gave

Bye, Bye Harley....*sigh*....

Impulse. Those impulses that grab us in the moment of emotion - thus triggering an emotional decision that, later (more often than not) we find a tad regretful. Well, to mark my 50th Birthday last year, I bought a Harley. Not just ANY Harley, I got the

Stop Blaming Mercury! Geesh!

OOOOO. All this talk of Mercury Retrograde. Oh, Smetrograde. Reminds me of the big bad wolf that is going to come and blow your little house down. Obviously I'm not an Astrologer, and as far as astrology goes, hey, I'm sure there are some valid points

~~~Is Wine really a good source for Attitude Adjustments?~~~

To answer my own question: YES! Absolutely! Without a doubt - when in trouble, just reach for the corkscrew and uncork some liquid attitude. The frightening thing about doing this is that you just never know what kind of attitude is inside that bottle

Dealing with Unwanted Neighbors.....

I had heard their racket in the middle of the night - they carry on doing whatever it is they feel like doing- snarling, growling, making cooing noises.... Mostly it is an annoying gnawing sound. Initially, I thought - hey, maybe it's some kind of a ghost

Fear of ....Rejection or Opinion??? Chili or Chill?

As small towns go, the Fishbowl that I live in is - well, really small... as in don't blink, you'll miss it. Today is a big day for us fish swimming around. It's the first annual Chili Cook-off. Now, I know many of you may be wondering why, with my magical

Saying Goodbye to Honey Bear.

I want to share with you Honey Bear today. As you can see by the pictures, she is one of the most gentle, unassuming, and sweet natured dogs in the entire world. I will never forget when I first got Spike (the little rat in a dog suit), my Yorkie Carley

Breathe deep...and try not to cough

Everyone says that if you have anxiety, just take a deep breath, exhale slowly and force yourself to let go of what it is that is causing you the anxiety. I don't know about you, but if this technique is so affective, I could easily hyperventilate on
