Our Big Adventure…

June 19, 2011 Ms. C2 Comments

I don't have a smart phone.  There are a couple of reasons for that.  First, I surmise I am not smart enough to operate one (which says something about me which probably is the opposite of  smart); second, I don't want to be that connected all the time as I know I will become addicted [...]

O-brother!!

May 23, 2011 Ms. C1 Comment

Let me say at the outset - I am as big a fan of the Oprah Show as most other gals (and the occasional guy).  I was a fan of the Donahue Show too.  I was also a fan of Dark Shadows, Laugh-In, Mash, All in the Family, The Twilight Zone and the Carol Burnett [...]

7 more hours…

October 25, 2010 Ms. C1 Comment

Oprah sent me an email.  Well, not Oprah herself - her network sent me an email.  Oprah still has yet to realize how fabulous a friend I could be to her. I don't know how many really tight gal pals she has in North Dakota, but I believe I would be a top choice for [...]

Southern California Top Ten List

July 29, 2010 Ms. CLeave a comment

“My life is like a stroll on the beach...as near to the edge as I can go.” ~Thoreau Well, I am back with both feet in North Dakota.  While I am happy to be home, I am a tish sad to be far away again from my brother and his family and my Cali friends. [...]
