I am not afraid to die.
I am afraid of the dreaded C-word. Cancer.
I’ve been a medical transcriptionist for, gosh, about 13 or 14 years now and I’ve always blamed my illogical feelings about cancer on the fact that I hear so much about it…every kind of it. My friend Teresa, who is also a medical transcriptionist, or [...]

Lillian and Bert
I’m not really sure how long we even stayed with Olene, but the time we spent there was priceless – I do know that. Of an evening at Olene’s lots of times we’d sit in old metal lawn chairs and eat watermelon. Sometimes, she and I would rake her dirt. She didn’t have a lot [...]

This is what the Junior looked like when I picked her up today after she made a 95 on her Algebra II test (was going to link you cutely for the story, but the link won’t work, so suffice it to say, the Junior didn’t do so well in Algebra II the first 6 weeks [...]

First and foremost, I am happy to annouce that the dog fever passed and common sense prevailed. That part of my brain that realizes that most times I can hardly stand the ones we have overruled the part that was saying how sweet and perfect the new dog was going to be. Most of all, [...]

Lord knows that the two furry things that inhabit this place are plenty for anyone. What with Jack, the miniature wire-haired dachsund, and the biggass cat, Max, why would I possibly even be entertaining the idea at all!?!
