This month will bridge the gap between the diary I started first, 1935, and then the diary I found, 1934. I stopped in Summer 1935 go go back to 1934. Now when I go back to 1935 it will be the start of autumn again! She’ll be starting college then. Exciting. In December, 1934 Babu…

The Drobey Drama
Let’s see if we can follow this thread and once and for all solve the Drobey Drama. (Spoiler alert, we wont! Haha. But it will be funny to watch our heads spin.) Sunday, September 16th, 1934 Jeanette and I saw at the Victoria “The Love Captive” and “The Lucky Texan”. We enjoy watching the people…
Back to School, Babu Style
I’m a bit nostalgic about Babu going back to school for her last year of high school. I wonder if, as she ages, her entries will remain as endearing, honest, and naive. To a certain point, I believe they will. I’m also nostalgic about all of the nonstop going back to school talk because for…
Sunday Share
It’s about time I stay a little more to the point and the general theme of this blog. This blog is about one unique experience of being a caregiver. The following post is important to share because it talks about burnout which I’ve seen, I’ve experienced, and am constantly recovering from and sinking back into…

A Piece of Creative writing.
I haven’t shared entries with Babu is a long time. It felt really good to do so today. Here is a piece of Creative Writing from Babu!! LOVE IT!!! Thursday, September 6th, 1934 One should be more quiet and more or less submissive on the day of confession, but to us that means comparatively little….
Autumn 1934
There’s condensation on the cars and a chill in the morning air today. And I think I may have seen some autumn colors at the side of the highway. The last of the blueberries are off of the bush but the tomatoes are going wild and the pumpkin vines are running away with themselves. The…
Balance…ahhhh…
We went on vacation. For a WEEK. And it was hard. For the past few years we have done this dance where we himmm and haaawww about making reservations and when we finally decide on it, Adam will start saying not to count on it, it could change at any time. We fight and freak…
A Stony Sunday Share (I just wanted to round out the alliteration.)
I am back! I’ve been camping – for a week – and it was every single thing I needed. For now, it is time for the Sunday Share. As rejuvenating as the vacation was, I am happy to sit back down and check in on blogs and get back to work. (There was no wifi…
Mornings
Our morning: Dash out – forgot to pick up prescription. Lay em’ all out! My nemesis. I sure there is something in here about heroin use, drought, and Trump – all things I’ll have to talk her down, away, up from. Must fluff and flip the pillows before each time sitting down. An unflattering pic…
Sunday Share – Leaves in Fall
I just had the pleasure of finishing a blog-mates novel, Leaves in Fall. Sam McManus can be found at Sam’s Online Journal and Leaves in Fall can be found on Amazon. I began following his wonderful blog to find out he has done the thing! Actually he has done the thing several times over and…
Happy Birthday Husband!
Sorry to have been MIA for so long. A week ago I decided to make this for my husband for his birthday. What a wild ride getting this from start to finish in that time! Now this is done and I can get back to the writing business. I am overhauling the blog concept and…
