http://squigglesgiggles.blogspot.com/2010_03_01_archive.html
Squiggles . and Giggles. Wednesday, March 31, 2010. BOOK NOOK . I’m still reading in my spare time, which is being compressed from all sides, it seems . but who doesn’t find that true today? Right now I’m finding a few quiet minutes in the evenings to read portions of Poetry and Experience. By Archibald MacLeish. In between other things, daily walks, neglected chores, etc., I’m also taking a look at Art Appreciation Made Simple. By John F. Sedgwick Jr., Ph.D., and Robert Frost - Seasons. Oh, that was tak...

http://squigglesgiggles.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Squiggles . and Giggles. Saturday, July 31, 2010. One of the views Phyllis and I enjoyed on a recent day trip). A FEW DAYS AGO . Oh, you know how time flies, so it may have been just a smidgen farther back . but it seems like just a few days ago that Phyllis and I rolled out of bed before sunrise, dashed out the back door and hopped into The Little Red Car. Up until that time, I think, Little Red had assumed we’d be a threesome on this outing. But when Little Red saw that motorcoach, well . First, Kathy,...

Squiggles ... and Giggles: September 2010
http://squigglesgiggles.blogspot.com/2010_09_01_archive.html
Squiggles . and Giggles. Saturday, September 25, 2010. It was bound to happen, I suppose. You know how it is. If you’re easily led . as I seem to be, judging from the trails I’ve been taken down by various groups, and individuals . then, chances are, you’re likely to find yourself in the midst of, well, another crowd. Well, I was staring right back. I was overwhelmed. How could I possibly paint the portraits of so many shining faces? So I picked a nearby trio and did a “family portrait” of th...Imagine, ...

Squiggles ... and Giggles: April 2010
http://squigglesgiggles.blogspot.com/2010_04_01_archive.html
Squiggles . and Giggles. Saturday, April 24, 2010. UPDATE - Brimm Manor is not closed, though the light in the window may flicker a bit . or may not always be on, should you happen by. And what’s all this about? You may recall last week’s installment, in which I related an experience while at the keyboard. I believe it started with a ka-BOOM! During an electrical storm . and, though I first thought it was the arrival of a great idea for another poem . it turned out to be an electrical problem. That’...

Squiggles ... and Giggles: December 2010
http://squigglesgiggles.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Squiggles . and Giggles. Saturday, December 25, 2010. By the time most of you . even the earliest of risers among you . have read this, I will already have gone racing downstairs to see what Santa has left under the Christmas tree for me. And not just for me. I’m not THAT selfish. I also like to look at the other packages . see whose names are on them . and try to guess what’s inside. Ah, those were the days! Come to think of it, so are these. For these few hours, at least, we can forget about all th...

http://squigglesgiggles.blogspot.com/2011/02/summertime-blues.html
Squiggles . and Giggles. Saturday, February 5, 2011. The gate is coming down . the train is pulling out . the ship is getting underway . the plane is . Actually, just as I’m trying to flex my stiffened fingers, get my aching back under control, and ease my ancient body into the creaking chair in front of the computer . then sitting here wondering what to say about this past week . there comes an e-mail from LOREE (Kansas), which says, in part:. Better late than never? And the trash cans! Then the snows c...

Squiggles ... and Giggles: If Elected
http://squigglesgiggles.blogspot.com/2011/01/if-elected.html
Squiggles . and Giggles. Saturday, January 22, 2011. I’ll try to be brief. Remember . I said I’ll TRY. This has been one of those weeks. Something like . what was that old saying? 8220;The faster I go, the behinder I get.” So here it is, Friday night again . ALREADY . and not only have I barely started to think about “Squiggles,” there’s a place I have to be tonight. So I started out by saying I’d be brief, remember? Well, maybe next time. AS SOME OF YOU. On Thursday, my weekly visit to the beauty shop c...

Squiggles ... and Giggles: A New Leaf
http://squigglesgiggles.blogspot.com/2011/01/new-leaf.html
Squiggles . and Giggles. Saturday, January 1, 2011. Now the fun begins. Why, for one thing, trying to remember to write 2011, instead of 2010, in all those places where I’m expected to indicate the current date. And just when I had finally learned to write 2010 automatically . well, semi-automatically, at least . instead of 2009. That aside, I am proud to announce that I kept all of my resolutions for this past year. Actually, I made just one . but I stuck to it, through thick and thin. And what was that?
