Is Snoopy Part Cat?
At least Snoopy tried to reason with his stomach. I don’t think cats do. They just meow pitifully and try to convince their human they are starving to death.
Will Run For…
Tacos! Today was my 3rd 5K of the year. I had more energy this time so my time was better. The weather was really good. It was overcast and about 65 degrees. There wasn’t any rain while I was racing. The race was in the Tremont neighborhood of Cleveland. One of Tremont’s claims to fame…
Who Am I Now?
Yup. Nuff said. I always said, I want to be a cat. And apparently I’m Garfield.
So Proud
In the last few years, I’ve really started to enjoy working in the flower bed in front of my house. I’ve slowly been adding perennials each year to make things easier for me as I get older. There are still annuals in there, but they haven’t grown as big as in the past. Last year,…

Parma Pierogi 5K
Another 5K in the books for me. On Saturday, I ran the Parma Pierogi 5K. If you recall, I was supposed to do it last year, but had knee trouble. I ended up doing the one mile walk. I was sorely tempted to do the mile this year because I was so tired. But I…
Clothes Shopping…
…In Cleveland in February. …in Cleveland in June. I was just at Walmart yesterday and the bathing suits are on clearance, just 4 days after the first day of summer. I’m surprised there weren’t any coats out. Unfortunately, I forgot to take a picture.
