I did not know that there were labels on our clothes that said funny things. Now I will have to go through all of my stuff and look at all of my labels and see if I have any. Here are a few that I found lurking out on the dreaded Internet. Can be washed…

DNA Update – Later April 2019
Above – Daddy? My replacement DNA Test is still sitting here in my office, untouched. I did manage to open the package, and fortunately for so many, it is not from the Self-Colonoscopy Collection. It is the regular Hork, Seal and Mail kit. And rather than acting like an adult and taking the test, I’m…
Bitch, Where You Been?
Selfie – Was actually taking picture of the phone. It would appear that I dropped off the Blog map in April 2019. What the hell? I can’t even explain it. Believe me, the shenanigans around here haven’t died down that much. I am still doing stupid things on a daily basis, but at…
The Pickles
As adults, responsibilities are heaped on our shoulders from everywhere. Home, work, friends, family; it never stops. There is lots of fun and good stuff too, but this is not about that. If you spill something, you wipe it up. If it needs sweeping, you have to sweep it up; I don’t always do it…
Clara Got It For Me
Backstory: Clara is my mom. Currently she is 94 (2019) and she is in Assisted Living in Strathmore, where Bruce and I live. She is in a wheelchair, but otherwise, her health is good and her mind is as sharp as a used tack – sort of one of those tacks that has been…
Let’s Hand Grandma a New Remote
The Assisted Living Centre where Clara lives changed their cable TV boxes and remotes in each of the rooms. Now, there are millions of people who can read that line and go, MEH. And then there will be every person who has someone elderly in Assisted Living or somewhere close who will think ARE YOU…
How To Train a Husband
When Bruce and I first got married in 1987, I knew he needed a little training. Not much; just a little bit to bring him around to being a tiny bit more civilized. We had met at work where he was a sworn member and I was a civilian, both with the Calgary Police. My…
DNA Update Dec 2019 (sigh)
Photo by Judy Cole using a red IPhone 8 with a sparkly case. I have an unusual fear of finding new and fresh relatives somewhere in the world as a result of having my DNA recorded. I don’t mean cousins and stuff like that – I mean brother or sister relatives. I really like the…
Blood, Bath and Beyond
Photo by kat wilcox from Pexels It wasn’t even a dark and stormy night. At least that may have heightened my sense of foreboding and despair for what was about to come. Rather, it was a quiet evening in the Cole household. Everyone was just where they were supposed to be. I was in my office working on…
