I am going to try to continue to write or post a photo every day, even if I make my post private. The other day I wrote for an hour and then deleted the whole thing. It still made me feel better to write it. I was a diary and book making kid – I…

Well, this is certainly a crap shoot, isn’t it? But I will take a stab at it. I can at least visualize what I hope for. I actually started writing this post several days ago just in case I got a case of the blues and couldn’t do it. But I woke up fairly bright…

Well, there won’t be anything exciting in this post, as you might guess. But it is a tradition for me. In January, I only posted once, on New Year’s Day, with my aspirations for the year ahead. Of course, nobody could see what was coming. Sandy retired on Dec. 31, so this was his first…

My favorite Christmas song. I just can’t abide the syrupy bouncy ones any more. I do love some of the old crooners like Sinatra and Clooney, though. One year, we had a receptionist that was quite mentally ill and very angry at me and the office manager. That December she had gotten another job on…

I am hardly even pretending that I am celebrating Christmas this year. Honestly, it feels like any other day. I did turn on the Christmas lights on the front porch, which I never take down. The good news is that the Flickr project is officially done. I don’t have to worry about my links being…

It’s a Festivus miracle! Frank Costanza: Many Christmases ago, I went to buy a doll for my son. I reached for the last one they had, but so did another man. As I rained blows upon him, I realized there had to be another way. Cosmo Kramer: What happened to the doll? Frank Costanza: It…
