Signs of spring
Technically spring starts on March 22. That isn’t always true here in New England. We have been known to have snow then. Finally, our spring has arrived. Here are a few of the sights: 1.

So I finally bought a Smart TV for my exercise room. A Smart TV means you can access the Internet from your TV. I wanted to be able to access the myriad of exercise videos on YouTube. As if my collection of 100’s of exercise DVDs wasn’t enough! The picture is crystal clear and big! […]
Planning the London Trip – Part 1
April 24, 2019
So the flights have been booked and the flat reserved. See, I am already turning into an Englishwoman, by saying flat, not apartment. Here is the next installment of our London adventures. 1.

It’s Peep time!
April 17, 2019
As Easter draws near, it is time for my annual Peeps post. As most of you know, I love Peeps almost as much as I love chipmunks. I searched far and wide to find some fun new Peeps pictures. 1. The famous Peep Mobile! Do you know in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania, the home of Just Born, […]

March 20, 2019
This sounds like a bell chiming doesn’t it? Well, it’s not. Rather it is the name of my new cellular network. Leave it to my dear Mr. Ken to find the best and cheapest network, along with the best smart phone. The phone is a Blu (android) and it does everything an iPhone does, except […]

I know all of you are at the edge of your seats, wondering what our dear Mr. Ken is up to now. Before the answer is revealed, there is one more piece of the puzzle. I came downstairs the next day and this sight greeted me. This looks like a drone and I wonder why […]
