These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.

I always knew ... but I didn't want to know ... you know?
The New York Times is reporting that Sammy Sosa tested positive for a performance-enhancing drug in 2003.
This makes me sad, but fortunately I was having a bad day, anyway.
Heads or Tails
The theme/prompt for THIS week, June 16, is:
HEADS - Lost
*OR*
TAILS - Found
HEADS - Lost
*OR*
TAILS - Found
So I'm taking the "tail" spin and highlighting songs that include the word "found."
"I found my thrill on Blueberry Hill/on Blueberry Hill, where I found you." Fats Domino
"You got lucky, babe, when I found you." Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers
"Now I've found my life has changed in, oh, so many ways/my independence seems to vanish in the haze." Beatles, "Help!"
"Young Scott with a slingshot found a tender spot and threw his lover in the sand." Bruce Springsteen, "Blinded by the Light"
