Scattered Thoughts: August 2013
http://scatteredthoughtsmary.blogspot.com/2013_08_01_archive.html
Saturday, August 31, 2013. Fun, Fun, Fun. I'm up early for a Saturday collecting my things for what promises to be 36 hours of fun. First I get to take a road trip with two of the funniest gals I know. We've been friends for about 30 years so there is sure to be a lot of reminiscing and laughter as we make our way down Route 29 to the small town of Tryo. Once we arrive at our destination we'll meet up with a few more friends from way back-meaning more laughs, smiles and hugs. Let the games begin! After f...

Scattered Thoughts: September 2013
http://scatteredthoughtsmary.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Saturday, September 14, 2013. Drama at the Teeter. After a long day of teaching and yet another sinus headache I willed myself into the local Harris Teeter. Originally I thought I would head home first, change clothes, and maybe even take a walk- and then head to the market. Yeah, that didn’t happen. As soon as I stepped outside and ran smack into the humidity hanging in the September air I knew if I went home first I would surely never leave. That didn’t happen either. To lean on when shopping. Kids wer...

Scattered Thoughts: March 2014
http://scatteredthoughtsmary.blogspot.com/2014_03_01_archive.html
Monday, March 31, 2014. The first car I remember belonged to my parents. It was a black Ford Fairlane. Somewhere there is a picture of me standing by the front door of that car in a beautiful blue dress with a white Peter Pan collar ready to embark on my first day of Kindergarten. I happen to know the dress is blue even though isn't evident in the black and white photo. According to my mother a trip over the bridge also meant I was probably going to be throwing up in the back seat. Sunday, March 30, 2014.

Scattered Thoughts: March 2015
http://scatteredthoughtsmary.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 31, 2015. Stepping into Fat Harold's Beach Club was more like stepping back in time-back in time to the 40s, 50s, or 60s. You see, Fat Harold's is a dance club. It's a dance club that specializes in teaching the Carolina Shag- the state dance of North and South Carolina. Any child of the 80s may remember a teen movie of the very same name. Monday, March 30, 2015. Smells Like A Sale. It wasn't enough to make me stop in for shopping but I smile every time I think about it. Spring Break start...

Scattered Thoughts: July 2014
http://scatteredthoughtsmary.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Thursday, July 31, 2014. So I snore. I've snored for many years much to the frustration of those who may be sharing a room with me. I try to be accommodating about the whole thing by making sure I have plenty of earplugs to pass out. Even so I still have to hear all about the racket I make while slumbering the next morning. You're speaking to the congregation doc. I've been trying to tell my friends that for years! Wednesday, July 30, 2014. Watch Out For That Inflation Storm. Tuesday, July 29, 2014.

Scattered Thoughts: June 2015
http://scatteredthoughtsmary.blogspot.com/2015_06_01_archive.html
Monday, June 22, 2015. Push It Around and Fry It Up. Tonight while making soft crabs I remembered the directions my grandmother gave me over 15 years ago. I had asked her for some expert advice on their preparation while visiting with her back in the late 1990s. Like many good foods the directions she gave were simple; pat the crab dry and then dip it into some egg, push it around in a little flour with salt and pepper, and then fry it up until it's ready to eat.

Scattered Thoughts: Letter of Complaint
http://scatteredthoughtsmary.blogspot.com/2015/03/letter-of-complaint.html
Sunday, March 29, 2015. The sun is shining today. Thanks for that. The skies? Yes, they are bright and blue. A nice detail. From my seat on the couch I can see the red buds on the trees and birds flying about. Really, it looks just grand! I'm heading south in search of flip flop weather for a few days. I hope you get your act together by the time I get back. March 29, 2015 at 7:02 PM. Your letter of complaint is completely justified! March 29, 2015 at 7:02 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Walking the Dog: Don't Call Me Ishmael
http://tswalkingthedog.blogspot.com/2015/08/don-call-me-ishmael.html
Wednesday, August 12, 2015. Dont Call Me Ishmael. Curious how some of the most terrible dangers of the sea from past centuries have become today's tourist attractions. Yesterday we sailed through scores of ice bergs (small ones to be sure, but genuine ice bergs never the less) to reach a glacier, and this afternoon our cruise director (not Julie, but Richard) gleefully announced that we would soon enter "whale water.".

Scattered Thoughts: Spring Break Pre-Party
http://scatteredthoughtsmary.blogspot.com/2015/03/spring-break-pre-party.html
Friday, March 27, 2015. Today was the last day of school for the third quarter. It was also the Friday before a 10-day spring break. Putting those two together pretty much equals chaos in sixth grade. Nobody wants to do much. Behavior can be challenging as both students and teachers count down the hours and minutes until a much needed break. Soda for miles. French fries galore. All you can eat pizza. Oh, and bowling- does it get any better than that? March 27, 2015 at 8:42 PM. View my complete profile.
