No, not werewolves or vampires or serial killers. This show called Monsters Inside Me can really eat at you. Maybe that wasn’t the best way to express it. I’m talking parasites and just now the show is featuring tapeworm cysts in the brain. They have evenĀ . . . ack, Alison is calling to be [...]

Will somebody turn the key in my back
March 10th, 2010 · No Comments
I am having trouble getting going this morning. I could have done it, after all I got up and took Alison to work and came home and started the process to get Summer moving. However, I was informed it was Collaboration Wednesday; that, apparently is the new – or newly-used – name for the damned [...]

Curbside spruce – blue
March 9th, 2010 · No Comments
Today was climb up on the stepladder, which was leaning against the blue spruce tree trunk, and saw off some of the lower branches. It needed to be done; the tree towers over the house, but the bottom was looking ragged. The air conditioner sits right beside it and the driveway is on the other [...]

Down to Cincinnati and back to Dayton

(I, the amazing AmeliaJake, was tired last night, so this morning I am going to put a capital “A” on my amazing and correct typos. I have also actually downloaded pictures . . . and found out, by the way, I am a gnome.)
We started out on a trip to Crate & Barrel today and [...]

Beyond the box

Today I was walking down the frozen food aisle at the grocery when I noticed a sale of quick microwave little meals. I am so partial to meatloaf and there was Michelina’s face and the suggestion, “Let Mama feed you” and I succumbed.
I took it one home and followed the directions to open a [...]

I am here on March 3rd
March 2nd, 2010 · 2 Comments
As I clicked into this site today, I noticed that a post consisting of a death notice and an obituary followed one about my having a sinister sounding deadly cold. And then there was yesterday when I did not post anything. Even I was inclined to wonder: Am I dead? No, if there is a [...]

Probably the cold
March 1st, 2010 · No Comments
I am thinking cold, as in aching, coughing, sinus pain and a miserable night. I usually say I have “a cold” but this little baby feels like it is in a different category – a Stephen King category; it hovers in my chest and around my personality like an unpredictable, looming doom. Therefore, I call [...]

Global warming is not outside my window
February 28th, 2010 · No Comments
Fresh snow is resting on the neighbor’s house – otherwise known as “the green house”; snow on that roof is usually my first indicator of the day’s weather trend. And the bushes are bending with snow. I don’t particularly mind this; it has been a trying few months and the weather-encouraged reclusive hibernation provides a [...]
