I joined Facebook in 2007, and it was a wondrous place, enabling me to connect with my family and friends who don’t live nearby. This brought us together, because we could see what was going on in each other’s lives. Without that connection, we would have lost touch, just as extended families of the past… Continue reading Karen’s Chat – Social Media – Real Life v A Virtual One

Karen’s Chat – Day Dreaming
Does anyone do this any more? Think about it. How often do you stare into space and let your thoughts drift? My guess, for the majority of people, the answer will be rarely. I also surmise it’s not something you’ve given any thought. The reason why people don’t indulge in this kind of mindfulness any… Continue reading Karen’s Chat – Day Dreaming
Reblogged – Be A Patron, Like Patreon
I haven’t subscribed to Patron but I know people who have accounts subscribers. What do they post and what is the cost? I expected it to be extremely cheap, a couple of pounds maybe. I saw one that I did think about subscribing to, but it was too expensive. What would you expect to pay?… Continue reading Reblogged – Be A Patron, Like Patreon

I love a Funny Story!

Oh No! Disaster!
I cross stitch squares for a charity who makes quilts for children with life long or life threatening illnesses. I’ve been doing this since 2012, when my adopted sister received one. On Sunday I had an email to say that the fabric used for one of the quilts I stitched for had bled when washed.… Continue reading Oh No! Disaster!
All the books I read in 2024 and the One I Loved The Best!
I read some excellent books last year and most of them were apocalyptic. Eighty-two of them. More than last year. One thing I discovered during the year is that a book can have errors, yet still be a damn good yarn. I’ve read several like that and when a story is so good, it really… Continue reading All the books I read in 2024 and the One I Loved The Best!
