Lush I logged in, I wrote it down. Read my words, I’ve been around. I have seen and did so much. I said, God take me to the chatroom. I’m just needing some hugs. I’ve been nasty, I’ve been nice. Malibu, California, Zuma Beach all the spice. I can show you so much. I said, God take me to the chatroom. I’m just needing some hugs. Yeah! Take me back, way back in time. With my friends, when time was sublime. I need it so so m...

“Hello again. A lot has been going on in our lives. I thought I would start with the morning I will remember for the rest of my life. “Jack? Jack, my sweet husband,” the little voice whispered in my ear. “Um-hum. What does my little Mommie want?” I’m thinking I’m going out for a Milky Way, ice cream, or dill pickles, who knows? “The coffee is going to be a little late this morning,” she cooed. “Did I forget to pour the wa...

On Christmas Eve morning, Cynthia was buried under the covers. I threw on my robe and bumped up the furnace. The flow of warm air was welcomed. I poured our coffee and headed back to the bedroom. I was curious what the ‘little voice’ was going to ask. “Baby? Are you in there?” “Yes,” came the little voice. “Do you want coffee?” “Yes,” was the response. “You can’t drink it under there. You have to come out.” I was holding...

I woke up very early Sunday morning for some reason. Cynthia was sleeping soundly next to me, and the apartment was quiet. I didn’t remember having a bad dream; I couldn’t figure it out. I wondered if I was still upset for Cynthia. I tried to sneak out of bed, but she noticed. “Are you coming back to bed, Baby? It seems very early.” Her voice was still dreamy. “I don’t think so, Sweetie. Something woke me up, but I don’t...

Beth is back to work and enjoying it. Cindy and Carl come over occasionally for beer and brats. Tonight, Beth is making my favorite dinner. Liver, onions, green beans, bacon, and gravy. I know, she won’t eat it either. She substituted a pork chop for the liver. My Neighbor Hood-Lums is becoming quite a success. The older folks are so grateful for the help and the community is pitching in. They had a fund drive to purchase...

Jeff woke up first the next morning. He was very grateful that he and Sam spent the money on inside plumbing. He snuck his slippers from under the covers and put the coffee pot on to perk. When he looked out, he saw that there had been a light powdery snow that night. He smiled because he knew that would make Valerie happy. When the coffee finished perking, he took a cup to Valerie. When he got to her side of the bed, all...

The next morning, Jeff and Valerie were awakened by the screaming of their alarm. Jeff reached over and cuddled Valerie in his arms and held her close to his chest. “Good morning, Ginger Snap.” Jeff smiled. “Don’t look at me. I still don’t have any makeup on, and my hair is a rat’s nest.” Jeff knew there would be no convincing Valerie, so he tried for a compromise. “Baby, how about if I put the coffee on and bring you you...

Morning came within seconds of going to bed. We had coffee and toast, then I got ready to go to Overton. When I got to Overton, it was nine-fifteen. I had time to kill, so I went to the local diner for a cup of coffee. As I sat there watching the steam rise from my cup, I started thinking about my life. I came to Medford to get out from under all the crap of the city. Where am I? I have helped a couple of people, but I ha...

Sunday morning was bright and sunny. The horrible days of Charlie’s hospitalization we three weeks ago. He still felt a bit sluggish, but he thought that was just part of it. He heard Alicia in their kitchen getting their coffee poured. He was more than ready for a hot cup of coffee. “Good Morning beautiful. How is my Baby this morning?” “Wow, Charlie, this is the best you have sounded in days. How are you feeling?” “To b...
