Ok, in order to tell you tonight’s story, I have to fess up to something. Yesterday was the second “day one” of the 21 day new habit challenge (for me to kick the FB habit). I made it thru all (ok, most) of yesterday without getting onto FB. I believe I used it on the […]

Facebook challenge – 21 days for a new habit to “take”
A former Unisys colleague of mine, posted something either last night or this morning, about it taking 21 days for a new habit to take hold. Sometime on the way home on the bus, I think, I was thinking to myself, self, let’s give this 21 day habit thing a try. “Let’s stay off FB […]

Fargo – Season 1
Ok, I’ll make a confession: I’ve never seen “Fargo” the movie. Sure, I’ve seen a few scenes from it, a trailer or two, but never got around to watching it. I’ve seen a few movies by the Coen Brothers (Barton Fink, “Burn after reading”, “Oh brother, where art thou”) which have always left me scratching […]
Bus, make-up, etc.
Person next to me on the bus is putting on their makeup. [I have to admit, this is probably only the second time in about a year, so it’s not that bad.] But, I mean, if I’m able to put on my eyeliner, eye shadow and lipstick at home in the morning, they should be […]
Hobbies, Model Railroading – what happens to your stuff when its time to go?
Post number two this morning due to insomnia/tinnitus. ==== Here’s a crafter’s dilemma, as a crafter gets older, toward retirement age.
