Yesterday was 72 degrees. And it is mid-March. Started the morning by donning a winter coat ended the afternoon with leaving it at the cleaners. [Which I discovered for the price of cleaning will store it from Now to October. With minute closet space, that is a deal; wonder if I will see it again?] …

Even More The Bus
Surprisingly busses are clean; until this past week when I noticed a bit of brown, crusty spotting on a few of the front blue seats. Unlike the subway, the seats are covered in a type of fabric. [the seats in the subway are all molded plastic]. I notice that others and myself avoid sitting on …
Not!
The more things change, the more they stay the same. Not! Went into Bloomingdale’s on 59 & Lexington. Had not been in there for years. The present layout is so unlike an old-concept department store – as say Macy’s, I was stunned. It is like a mini-mall housing different boutiques. Gone is the general jewelry …
Blonde & Black

One Glove
Lost one glove. This never happens to me, but now I can never say never. I retraced my steps from yesterday, visited the two places on route and still no my glove. Did see a pair of white with black stripes, laid atop an in-window cooling unit, for someone to find, walked along side a …
Why Me?
Why am I the one observing what is going on around me? Because everyone else is walking and talking and texting and looking at their phones and not only about to walk into me, but are not seeing the events and people that I am seeing because I am not walking and texting and talking. …
I Know, I know, I know!
But I am compelled to continue along this important rabbit trail on which I find myself. Did you know that ‘after a user allows an application on any apple device to have access to location information, the app can copy the user’s entire photo library without any further notification, or warning…’ [this is from the …
Today
