...in fact, as I write this, it is but 68 degrees...

Just the other day, A hundred & five degrees, Enough to put me on my knees, Then there was this beautiful day… Low seventies, that’s right, no more than 70, Low humidity, though we have had rain, Gotta admit it’s downright cool, Not weather to go into the pool… Yes this I like, it feels just right, Starting tomorrow back in the 80’s, And on up from there back to the heat, But for today we had a brief summer respite…

The heated response is to jump in the pool, but for the Vlad the vampire draining of human blood, it is just too sad to see.

First he's hot, then he's cold,
or he's somewhere in between.
I'd say make up your mind,
but I don't want to sound mean.

My many years with Authors Den will come to a close in May, thank you to all that has reviewed of me, I hope you all continue on to your own end...

Most likely my END or maybe NOT!

Yep, it''s that time of the year again, break out the credit card...

Merry Christmas...

We all got em''...

The Saggy, Baggy Boobs Blues,

Growing up alone is not so bad...

Alone in life...

Memories I am Unable to Forget...

To wish for death...

I find it interesting that only in the wee hours of the morning is when I find myself able to write anymore... <br>

Rain, thunder & lightning, oh my...

Hey, I think I might have found a little humor...?

...NEAT...
