Hiya in Public

Apparently Bruce found some more data. Real data. I got an email inviting me back to OD…with entries this time. Press a button and it all reappears. Worked on the first try even. Notes and everyt...

132 Bookmarks! in Public

Clearly I've been MIA a little too long and have some catching up to do. Please know that I follow a lot of you, but don't always comment. I kind of miss FB's "Like" button, where you could indic...

Look who's back! in Public

Daisy kitty (aka "Speshull Kitty"): We'd lost her when we moved way back in summer. I'd given up hope that she'd return when I got a call from the microchip company. A man had found her and tu...

Found my truck! in Public

And I shall call it my "redneck minivan".


My previous entry is still a neat trick, but Simple Mind decided that it would be nicer to change the setting allowing people to resize the text box. So now, if you look in the lower right-hand c...


Hack in the positive sense, nothing harmful. That tiny text box always makes me feel constrained. I like seeing more of my words when I'm writing as I edit myself moving back and forth a lot. R...

Truck in Public

I want to own a big V8 truck, preferably double cab pickup, with a tow package and a plow. I'm not sure why this has been entering my thoughts lately except...it would be awesome! Maybe a travel ...

Thanks Bruce... in Public

Cross-posted from a private OD group on FB where the focus was on the good things we got from Bruce's site, and not wallowing in the anger at it ending. I really wish Bruce could see the fond ...

On Cooking... in Public

This started as a response to a note from Timmy, and it started growing into a post. So here it is. Call it a sin, but I don't know what to do with "fresh" food. Timmy™ 6 hours ago It's not ...

I think I see OD in Public

It's that tiny dot in the Bay of Drama.

Real is as real does... in Public

It's strange, I'm now friends with a lot of you on FB, and despite the fact that FB has your real name, usually some pictures of you and the family you've sometimes talked about here...it doesn't...

Beginnings in Public

The wait goes on. I check in pretty often, and it's still there. But like a deathwatch on a dying patient, we're all just waiting for the flatline. I'm absolutely grateful for this lifeboat tha...


"I feel like we've been through war together" - a note on my last OD entry. Maybe we haven't been through war together, but we have been through so much of life. We created lives, lost lives, be...

On the demise of OD in Public

Yeah, I'm mad. Just like everybody else. I suppose most of it is pointed at Bruce for allowing it to happen and then deciding to shut it all down like a petulant kid taking his ball home when he ...


And why did a friend here get a note from a writer who thought PB was a dating site? Inquiring minds want to know.

I don't want to be here... in Public

Don't consider me ungrateful, but I'm in mourning. I'm grieving the loss of an old friend. One who has been there with me for 13 years. Longer than my kids have been alive. Almost as long as my m...
