This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of Walgreens for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine. Have you ever tried to decipher the prescription that your doctor writes? Sometimes I wonder how the pharmacist we go to can read it. Only once has a prescription that I’ve received been misread, and it [...]
This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of MatchBook for SocialSpark. All opinions are 100% mine. Any college student knows that textbooks are expensive.

I’m having some medical tests done, all should be fine, but need to make sure, but look forward to being back soon. I still owe Norma Budden (see 2 posts before this one) a more complete review of her wonderful book and have lots more to share, very soon. I’ll be back before you know [...]

This is a Sponsored post written by me on behalf of PhotoFlashDrive by Pexagon Technology. All opinions are 100% mine. I take many photographs and add them to my blogs often. I am not a professional photographer, but love taking pictures. After taking the picture, if I add the photo to my site I want [...]
“Banned Books” always brings to mind the movie “Fahrenheit 451“, the Ray Bradbury SciFi movie about burning books, a world without books, released back in 1966. Though banning books isn’t quite as extreme as that, perhaps we see it happening in another way…devices replacing actual paper and hardcover books. Instead of using the term “it’s [...]
Somewhere along the line I’ve been informed that this is “get caught reading” month…what would you get caught reading if someone showed up unexpectedly? I must admit that I’m more likely to be caught reading on my laptop, or writing, but have always loved books. In fact, a small group of us is planning to [...]
There are so many people who are “going green” these days, looking for ways to do their part to preserve our natural resources. As new as the concept may seem to many, it is not new at all. Back in the ’60s and early ’70s we were very much into living off the land, living [...]
