Winter. I hate it. I have such a hard time being interesting or interested in the world around me from November thru March. That’s why I haven’t written much here lately. Sorry but snow, gale speed winds, snow, and ice covered sidewalks, and snow really do a number on my creative forces.
I took this picture [...]

Go on, laugh.
Feel better?
Story regarding tree starts now:
So my apartment is a small two room plus kitchen, bathroom, and a few closets. Not miniature by any stretch, but it’s a challenge to fit a full sized Christmas tree (whether it’s real or plastic) for the season, as well as to store decorations and the tree [...]

Looking forward to New Year’s day. The SBC and I are spending it with my best friend Jane! Yeahoo!
Double checking I have everything in my backpack for tomorrow (except lunch. That’ll [...]

The weather has finally changed from happy sun-filled summer to chilly, dreary, damp autumn.
And it makes me feel like…. blecch!
It’s taking longer for the sun to appear in the morning, and it’s diving beneath the horizon much sooner. I don’t like it. I’ve never liked autumn. It reminds me that winter will soon be here [...]

This is the third pumpkin I’ve carved for my section. We’ve never [...]

My Sweet Baby Cat (hereby to be known simply as SBC) bought me a Fisheye Camera and an Oktomat Camera [...]

So geeky, so true!
Before signing up this blog, anytime I googled “vingada” I’d get some listings for a soccer coach named Nelo Vingada. We Vingadas are a quiet dull lot. Except for the soccer guy.
But I just entered my name in Google to see if my site would come up, it did! Yippee!
Now, I [...]

It’s disgusting. It wiggles, jiggles, bounces light, tastes like plastic, typically topped with that fake whipped cream. It’s wrong. Wrong. Wrong. Wrong.
When I was six I had food poisoning and spent 6 days in hospital. After two days without food, I was allowed to eat jello. For breakast. For lunch. For supper. A different coloured [...]
