Unlimited Data


"Unlimited data!" Hey, I like the sound of that! Since for some reason, in my "Photos" folder on my phone and laptop, I usually have 8 or 9 photos of the same image for some reason, and I keep getting "You are out of storage space!" messages. It's extremely irritating when I read these annoying announcements! I thought the salesperson at the phone store told me I had unlimited data! Come to find out I don't really have unlimited data. "The cloud! The cloud!" friends keep telling me. They tell me to transfer all my stuff to the cloud! Yeah. yeah. I know! Well, my cloud tells me I need more storage space and for only $12.99 a month, paid annually, I can have actually own real unlimited storage space! Yeah right!

I know, friends, no need to explain the technical realities of actual unlimited data to me. I'm being a little facetious here. It's just that I hate those notices about...well, you know...that warning! I have decided to purchase a new laptop on Amazon, it will be here in a couple days. My old ones are running way too slow, and my desktop window is cluttered with all those little folder icons, of which I don't remember what they all go to. My new laptop promises to have gazillions of TB space. Sounds like my nightmares of notices I have no more storage space are finally over! I'll let you know in a year or two.

Run Maggie Run

"Dixie" Over the years, I have had some great friends who were dogs! Ringo, Lobo, Chix, and now Dixie. Dixie is my Australian shepherd, border collie mix. She’s old, like me. We have our aches, and pains, and we can’t get around like we use to when we were pups. That’s life, what can I say? Dixie has a hard time with her hips and back legs. I do what I can to help her every day. I pick her up, and help her in her chair, and in bed at night, next to me. I love this little girl. She and I have been buddies for thirteen years now. We’ve taken our early morning walks around our pond, chased the crows and barked at the deer. I have comforted her when the lightning and thunder caused her fear, fed her when she wasn’t feeling good. She in turn, has given me peace when I didn’t feel any! They say a dog is a man’s best friend! So true! Chris Stapleton, a gifted country-blues singer, recorded a song about “his” best friend, Maggie a while back. He sings a poignant song that shares on

Some like it hot!

I'm talking about Salsa. Everyone loves salsa! Salsa is a traditional, Mexican side dish typically served at room temperature. I enjoy salsa at any temperature, just make sure it's spicy! My neighbor, Marylou, makes the best darn salsa in the world! She is Mexican and was born knowing how to cook all things Mexican I believe. Her husband was born in Honduras, so she cooks South American too. Marylou gave me a very simple, traditional salsa recipe I'll share with you here. I've made it and... oh wow! Delicious! You can make this salsa with jalapenos or Tabasco-style peppers. She uses the latter, so do I. 3 Roma tomatoes 3 tomatillos chopped small 6 small hot peppers 3 garlic cloves chopped fine 1/2 yellow onion chopped fine salt to taste a little water It's best if tomatoes and peppers seeded are grilled (blackened) - adds smokey flavor I like. Combine all ingredients in a blender on "chop" setting. Leave chunky is what I prefer. Cover and put your salsa i

Just plain folks

We live in the cities, the suburbs, on the farm, and out in the country. We live at home, and some of us live away from home. Some of us are wealthy, and most of us aren’t so much – some of us are just needing the basics of survival. We are still, in my mind, “just plain folks!” Wherever we live, we are “just plain folks.” We go to school, to work wherever we find it, in our homes, our industries, and in all manner of social services. I see people everywhere wanting to have a good life. We all deserve to have a good life – to be happy, healthy, and prosperous. Thank God we live in America where we have the opportunity to achieve that good life if we choose! I believe we are seeing hundreds of thousands, maybe millions of potential leaders who are called to see our great country return to her greatness – to help us achieve that good life we all want. Even now, in 2022, those leaders are stepping out and showing us the great American way. For a time, I was worried our future was i
