A Place of Reflections

OlCracker ~ My next lifetime hubby @OlCracker   on twitter, not just a 'twaffair'  ~  Yes, I saw this pic, a tall man with striking facial bones, strongly sculpted arms ( guns, they call arms like that guns ), wearing a cowboy hat, holding a fine looking chicken. What's not to love about that?   Not being a completely  'shallow woman' affixed to a person by 'looks' only, his bio said he was an ASCAP songwriter. That intrigued me.  I've been putting song poems together since I was a teenager. Many of them were what was then called 'novelty' songs.  In early adulthood the music would come to me for some of the songs poems I was writing. Though I couldn't write the music down, I could at least sing how it was supposed to go. It was a creative outlet, it was fun. In my early adulthood, I had a very good time and some success with originating and selling some advertising jingles and donating one of my produced...

Twitter  blessings ----> THE AVIATORS  Wednesday, July 11, 2012 the biggest twitter blessing of the week came while I was helping  Taz , Daisy and Buddy @3DogsWhite  with their twitter account. They had received a tweet from  Lolly   @LollyMadonna   about a 'memorial flight' scheduled for 5:00 PM Eastern Time. I didn't understand what that was about.  Me and the doggies stumbled upon something beautiful. Right then it was 4:00 PM Wisconsin time which is 5:00 PM Eastern time. We found THE AVIATORS   (their twitter hashtag #theaviators).   We began to see tweets and retweets happening about a flight mission, a memorial flight for all departed pets and animals who went OTRB <---   Over The Rainbow Bridge and GTRB <---- Gone To Rainbow Bridge   ~  For those of you who do not know what the concept of The Rainbow Bridge is, here is the story. People who love their pets and anim...

Formerly known as " Short Takes " here is " This That The Other " for this past week. Rockin' The Star Spangled Banner ~ Ms. Janet Hansen ,  @Scout66com  on twitter, a music marketing specialist and publicist out of Nashville, Tennessee asked me if I'd be interested in giving Madison Rising and their rock version of The Star Spangled Banner a mention at my blog site. Now, even though Ms. Janet knows I pretty much adore her, I will not go 'outta my way' to be obliging unless I listen and make up my mind for myself.  I'm a hard headed woman that way. Ms. Janet would expect me to be just the way I am.  I enjoyed my listen and I enjoyed reading Ms. Janet's blog post.   The lead singer for Madison Rising is a U.S. Navy veteran. You can read more about them at Ms. Janet's Scout66com blog post Madison Rising: Rock 'n Reverence Like You've Never Seen  .  If you came here today with a limited amount of time, here with ...

Sunday's session was leash only out on the garage work bench. ( FREESTYLINGZ )   GK's daughter called GK in several timez to calmz me, makez me feel securez. I also called GK in several timez to make me feel even more securez. The nicest thingz about home grooming vs. professional grooming iz  GK called a FULL STOP BR...

Litany of Complaints Let Me Unload My Gunnysack Dear Daughter Life in America " Gunnysacking is when someone silently collects irritations and slights until "the last straw is placed on them" causing an overblown reaction." ~   Definition source: Gunnysacking Wikipedia Dear Daughter, You abundantly fill my life with many treasured moments.
