Gill sent this. I think she answers her own question with her first example. If you want to fight against hate, you have to show in any way you can no matter how big or how small that there is love and good in the world. Be the sort of person that you would want […]

Happy Birthday To Me, Part Two
Gill recently talked about some of the garbage birthdays she’s had. She’s now sent in a bit about a few of her better ones to balance things out. I’m glad they didn’t all suck. I wrote a few days ago of my worst birthdays, but let’s hop the bus to the positive side of town. […]
Happy Birthday To Me!
No, not me. My birthday is in December. The birthday in question is Gill’s. It happened over the weekend and she’s got a somewhat interesting take on it. Basically, 2020 is a strange time, but things have been worse. I’ve had about as many birthdays as she has, and I can’t think of one that […]
I Sometimes Feel Old!
I just got this from Gill. It’s funny that she happened to send it now, since I’m having my own bout of the elderlies this week. Seppa-Tebby-Tebby is in Junior Kindergarten. Seriously. I don’t know how that happened. Today is his third day. From what I hear, he seems to like it. I’m supposed to […]
The Importance Of Fun
It seems that Gill has been thinking about end of life planning lately. Wills, funeral arrangements and other such happiness. It also seems that her thoughts may have gotten away on her a little. Unless there’s something that only she knows, writing a will and setting money aside for a decent burial don’t mean that […]
AT Least Buy Me Dinner First?
Brad sent this. First I laughed like everyone else, but then the video ended before we found out if she ever figured out where to put it and now I can’t stop thinking about it. I may have to look up it…look it up. I said look it up. I’m sure everyone at one time […]
40 Years
Haven’t heard from Gill in a while, but she wrote in yesterday, which happened to be her 40th birthday. Turns out it’s also right around the 40th birthday of a friend of hers, and she wrote this about the very different lives they’ve lived. All of the happy birthdays and well wishes from us here, […]
Operation Cake Surprise
Sounds like Gill’s mom had a pretty nice Mother’s Day. I wouldn’t mind some of that cake myself. Remember a few months ago I asked you wonderful readers to vote on a cake that I would make for my mom as a thank you for everything she does or has done for me? Would you […]
When Will It End?
I’m glad Gill wrote this, because it’s given me the push to post a couple things that I’ve been meaning to post for a while. First, a song. And next, this essay that really scrambled up my brain as it’s intended to do. When I found it, all that was written was below the ***’s. […]
Sweet Mischief
Gill is looking for some input if anyone has any. Personally I like the sound of chocolate cherry. Normally mischief is a bad thing when it falls into the wrong hands, but if done right it can and does make someone’s day. Whether buying someone lunch or just surprising a co-worker who could use some […]
