My childhood and my Mom comes to mind the most when Holy Week swings around. Incense, hard pews and gorgeous stained glass windows in Gothic churches. Oh my and do this and do this to avoid downstairs eternal fire. Uh huh. Dog...

Lenore Plassman @sallypup (68559) • Centralia, Washington 29 Mar

Beans and brown rice with mixed vegies from the freezer for supper. Sounds pretty sleepy to me. I made a cup of pie dough and rolled it out thin then cut squares. I put a dab of refrieds and another bit of cheese on a square...

Lenore Plassman @sallypup (68559) • Centralia, Washington 27 Mar

Long time- maybe over a year? since I last messed with popcorn. Tonight hubby wondered about snacks. Nope. I wasn't running to the store. I thought about it and said I could try to pop some of the popcorn that had been...

This is my second day of morning pool exercise. Now that I am done with that for the week it feels like Friday. Beau Teak kitty was clingy in the night and I didn't sleep well again so a nap is on my horizon. A chair nap. I...

Palliative care and stormy weather

Lenore Plassman @sallypup (68559) • Centralia, Washington 24 Mar

It's that time of the month again. Rain and wind is blowing in. I opened the kitty carrier and Beau walked in. What a trooper. That's Beau Teak, Siamese esquire. He and I just returned from the Vet clinic. The Vet and...

Jolly green short me

Lenore Plassman @sallypup (68559) • Centralia, Washington 22 Mar

Last night we had mild frost. Sun warmed the world but left the grass and weeds wet. Two or three weeks ago I bought a battery powered weed trimmer. Then of course it rained. I've been told to not mow or trim when it is...

That was then and this is now

Lenore Plassman @sallypup (68559) • Centralia, Washington 14 Mar

My Mom and her eight kids. And her difficulties with the guys in her life. And the reality of feeding and clothing and keeping a roof over us. I was the youngest. That's probably why I got the message that when it came to...

Lenore Plassman @sallypup (68559) • Centralia, Washington 13 Mar

I didn't write lazy. I wrote cozy. Hubby and I have been listening to an audio book today. Rain is pelting down. Fields are flooding. A car hydroplaned into a semi on the highway. Somebody helped those poor folks. The...

Cover up decisions

Lenore Plassman @sallypup (68559) • Centralia, Washington 28 Feb

Chlorinated pool water is not kind to swim wear. It fades garments and cauaes them to stretch. So......about once a year I go online and look and examine and imagine what it would be like to be in the pool wearing this, that, or...

It's president's day. Last night I took a bag of Bing cherries from the back freezer. This morning I put Gregorian chant on the computer since it's also Lent and got busy. I always look like I've had a tragic accident after I...
