Breakfast. I remember when I was young and finally put together words have meaning and reflect that meaning in their composition. The big illumination came from “headache.” My head aches. Ah! Breakfast equals break fast. In our household, the emphasis is on “fast.” As in NOW. I’ve been without a camera for months, making for […]
Coming up on the second anniversary of this blog, I have been in absentia for about a month, posting only occasionally during a time of great political turmoil between current events around the world, and in our domestic affairs, such as the grand juries refusing to indict the police who shot dead Michael Brown in […]
I spent this past weekend in San Diego, California at my brother, Sean Edward Duggan’s Memorial. There were maybe 50 people in attendance.

Did I catch your attention with the title? In fact, I spent part of Sunday trying to trace a possible leak that might be coming from the toilet. Now, since I am a renter, why would I invest my time in detecting a leak? Because, she replies promptly, I received my water bill and it […]
Saturday, after the Flag Day ceremony, I went to our local Farmer’s Market with my friend, Maureen B. We sauntered up and down the rows, eying lavish displays of produce, gawking at the size of radishes and Walla Walla Sweet Onions (just for you, Kanzen!).
