Drooling Over Myself Decades Later
As a child, I used to watch my parents fall asleep in their rocking chairs after dinner. I could never figure out how they could sleep sitting upright like that, heads dangling, often snoring which never worked out well for TV watching for us kids. That was okay though, because their nap time equalled more …
A Title About Titles
It looks like one crafty librarian had a little bit of fun playing around with book titles--re-arranging them to reflect these crazy pandemic times.

Mosquitoes
My summer nemeses, Out to get me, Sucking my blood dry, Quick to buzz in my ears, Unrelenting and tenacious, Irritating as can be, Tons of them after the rain, On my neck, knees, fingers and toes, Endlessly itchy welts that drive me crazy, Scratching them to no avail.
Cowlicks Anyone?
"Aw, don't worry about it... when you are older, you will grow out of it." That was what my hairdresser said to me about the strong cowlicks that lie within my bangs when I was in grade school. Like, what was she thinking?! Maybe forty years ago, stylists didn't know any better. The truth is …
A Humourous Look into Some Whatchamacallit Viruses
If you are like us and you are open to some humour as well as a much needed break from all of the COVID19 news, then you have come to the right spot. As I lie awake in bed the other night, I thought about some of the 'illnesses' which I am sure that I …
