Collusion

Collusion is our writing word for today and it’s right up my alley, even if it isn’t my word. I’m a great believer in conspiracy theories. In fact, if the truth were known, I believe that almost everything is a conspiracy. I’m not even going to talk about how governments, drug companies, water suppliers, even […]

That’s the trick!!

Our writing word for today is “trick.” It’s my word and I thought of it after spending an hour or so on-line looking for something that would outsmart or trick a groundhog. Last year, a groundhog ate all of my strawberries, most of my eggplants and too many of my tomatoes. Sigh! I wanted to

File it – for the record….

Our writing word for today is “file.” Another word with many meanings. Today, I’m going to use “file” in the sense of recording information for preservation!! Wow! big words for small deeds. What I really mean is that this blog, for me, is a way of recording or filing, what I do and have done
