Hello everyone. Once again much, much thanks for the kind words. All the replies brought tears to my eyes. I'm trying to get through each day and night but it is extremely painful. I cannot believe I will no longer be able to hug my beloved Sue, go for long walks. She passed when she wanted to...

Thank you all so much for your kind words. It is comforting to hear from so many of you and it helps. Sue was a blessing and I miss her so much. Sue and I always hugged each other and shared many kisses , always walked hand in hand everywhere we went. I am so lost. She was my reason for...

Having posted many stories about my adventures with my beautiful wife Sue it is with a devastated heart that I now write that she passed away on Monday, July 12/21. I am so lost. She was...No..Is the love of my life and I only wish that I can be with her soon. She was such a caring, fun person...

Well, in MY day teachers could be very discouraging. Most of the teachers back then were very prime and very proper. ( Except for Miss Allison....The guys couldn't wait for the days of her math classes. And that's saying something about the wonders of mathematics.) Miss Graham was one of those...

From my high school days......I decided before entering high school I wanted to be a cartoonist and in order to meet that lofty goal I had to enroll in the commercial art class. Well, the classes included drawing flowers, flowers in flower pots, pots and pans, more flowers and an occasional...

In my previous life it was like when I was out in the workforce. In this, my now current life, I am retired. So, there is a difference. My previous life was hectic, working under stressful situations, making decisions and being politically correct. Being on call 24/7 wasn't fun either. All in...

Let me put it this way, I don't think it would be possible to actually send a resume into any firm with so many rather strange requests. I DO know that, in my previous life, I interviewed a woman for a position within the place I worked and she actually, after the interview was over, if it would...

So I recently applied for a job at an I.T. company.:) For some reason I didn't here back from them right away. I called them and talked to the I.T. Manager who told me they had my resume and they would call me back when they had made a decision....That was six months ago. No phone call. I'm...

When Esso decided to introduce Self Serve at all their stations many moons ago, I swore....Literally, of course.... I would NEVER fill up my car at Esso! That means I'd have to clean my OWN windows, check the oil??? Also, this will put people out of work....I'd find ANOTHER gasoline station to...

Here we are self isolating. Such fun. Biggest event of each day is walking down to get the mail and hoping I don't meet anyone on the way. Then hurrying back before anyone else goes to get their mail. I think everyone sits by their windows watching to see who goes out... Trying to keep myself...
