Nasty Weather Begone

Sat, 14 Nov 2009 05:49:13 +0000

Yesterday, I have postponed my last Doctor’s appointment for the year for a good reason. I waited till the last minute to call it off as I somehow hoped the weatherman was wrong with the forecast once again but no, he hit the nail right on the head this time. I should have known, because [...]

Bullet Points

Wed, 21 Oct 2009 06:18:37 +0000

The past few days have been down days. With so many issues hounding my mind, I can’t help but feel sad. The effects of the two recent typhoons in the Philippines is upsetting and disheartening. Another super typhoon is set to hit the northern part of the country. I’m hoping and praying that it will change [...]

Leaving…

Wed, 21 Oct 2009 04:14:03 +0000

Our neighbor – Bella, dropped by today to bid us adieu. Their flaming red, Lexus car was just picked up today and they will be heading out to Delray Beach, Florida, their second home. They’ll be gone for six months, away from the harsh winter weather of New York. Yes, they are much older as [...]

Exit Signs And Me

Wed, 10 Jun 2009 05:45:29 +0000

In this life we are presented with so many choices. It is entirely our prerogative if we choose to trudge a straight, clean life or we want to walk around regarded as a misfit, a law breaker or simply a person known for notoriety. I’m by no means righteous nor a saint, and that is [...]

Deadline Is Almost Here, Have You Paid Your Taxes?

Sat, 04 Apr 2009 05:25:54 +0000

As soon as the first day of April came, I knew it was time to let go of that tax payment. So, off the check I wrote. Yes, in the mail, to the Internal Revenue Service in Hartford, Connecticut, payable to the United States Treasury. And yes, it’s been so many years of paying taxes, [...]

What's Behind That Sublime Facade?

Sun, 29 Mar 2009 04:44:45 +0000

If I invited you to come and live in this house for free would you be willing to?

This home is located in Chester Township, New Jersey. It’s awesome, isn’t it? But I tell you, don’t judge a book by it’s cover. In the same token that you should not believe everything you read, as there [...]

I'm In A Quandary

Tue, 17 Mar 2009 05:43:15 +0000

Planting season is almost here. And if you remember, I’m also an avid gardener, never mind that I only do container gardening. With the limit of outdoor space, as our only outdoor space is our balcony (we live on the 14th floor of a high rise by the ocean), there is also the fact that [...]

I'm Dreaming Of Maine

Sun, 15 Mar 2009 04:59:40 +0000

With the temps here in New York still stuck in the 40’s, I have been all the more anxious to hie off to some serene place like this image you’ll see below.

Where is this place? It’s in Maine, one of the few places I really love so much here in the US. Aside from their [...]

Spring Forward

Sun, 08 Mar 2009 03:46:48 +0000

Today is another uneventful weekend in our household except for the fact that tonight, we are going to lose an hour of sleep. Why? It’s that time of the year when we have to set our clocks an hour ahead. Remember, in the Spring we spring forward and when Fall comes around the time falls [...]

Let Me Count The Ways

Wed, 11 Feb 2009 05:23:32 +0000

This tag is long overdue but I think it worked for the best because now, is the perfect timing for this meme to be posted here. Just in time for the day of the hearts: Valentine’s day, my online friend Lynn passed this along.

So, how do I love thee?????

-The ever loving and patient man that [...]
