October 31, 2009 “Multitasking” is a term that is used in today’s society a lot. We didn’t even know that word existed in the “old days”. It is even on resumes these days. If you are good at multitasking, you are a valued employee. What is it? Webster’s says “It is the ability of a person to perform more than one task at the same time.” (More)
August 12, 2009 This has been a long hot sweltering August. But five years ago, living in the Dallas/Ft. Worth area, we had a wonderfully cool August. I wrote about it back then and also of hot summers past. (More)
July 6, 2009 I am not a teetotaler. I never have liked alcohol though. Even as a teenager, I refused to drink, and when I left home and went to work at 17, in 1949, in San Antonio, and was on my own, with my own apartment, working in an office, I refused to drink even at office parties and picnics. Not because I thought it was wrong, I just didn’t like to drink, saw everyone else drinking and wanted to be different. I also didn’t like the way some people acted when they drank. Their personalities would change to something I did not recognize. I never wanted to have that happen to me.I will admit that later on in life, after getting married and having friends who liked to have a beer or a drink, I would have a mixed drink. I never did like beer though. Now I do like the taste on a hot summer afternoon! But I don’t keep any in my house! (More)

Just think about it. When you are fighting things daily that keep coming back to torment you, pester you and bug you, look at the thing as a spiritual thing. Sometimes it is little things. (More)
May 21, 2009 I was just thinking how much we depend on technology today. Can we even survive without it? We are so dependent on technology for everything these days. Progress is wonderful, but when we depend on it for things like sustaining relationships and family entertainment, aren’t we losing something? Technology may be one of the reasons families are so dysfunctional these days. (More)
