Season's greetings, my friend! Yes, Christmas is coming, and I'm always a happy camper at this time of year. I rede you beware. LOL! It's a fine frosty December morning here. There's a cold grey sky and light wisps of snow fluttering about on the wind, a perfect day to revel in the holiday spirit. I have my hot cup of coffee and the fireplace lit, two cats snoozing on the bed behind me, and some lovely Christmas music from Days Of Yore to help spin the holiday spell. A perfect Saturday morning. The only thing we're missing here is you. Read More...

The coffee is good. It's strong, and it's hot, and the aroma of it fills the air at the small table by the window. Warmth. Comfort. Shelter from the storm. All very good things in Life. Things to embrace and enjoy whenever you are lucky enough to come across them. Living can be tough enough on a day to day basis. No need to make it any harder than it needs to be.

Outside the big window the wind blows the rain sideways. The town's streets are empty except for the occasional truck stopping at the light, windshield wipers going, waiting for the light to change green to go. It's cold and raw for a late summer day. Read More...

Hello, It's Me

It’s been some time since I’ve actually sat down to write something other than a short comment or pithy summary of some play, movie, or some such thing. I used to write all the time. I'd write letters and keep a journal. I'd write sometimes just to sort through my own thoughts and see where they would lead me. That was a good thing. Read More...
