You probably need a sense of humor and a certain playful attitude toward life and the world around us to appreciate my blog. If you lack either of these, perhaps you can download them from the internet. If you've been here, I'd love to know - please leave me a 'comment.'
I am back on jig saw puzzles - not the computer kind, but the real ones with pieces for cats to bat around and light to glare on. The kind that a well placed snip of the scissors gives temporary satisfaction to - and delayed frustration of course. The kind that allows mindless consideration to tough things to consider. Or no consideration at all.
Yep - just the ticket in uncertain times.

I started blogging when I moved from California to Kentucky – bit of a culture shock there, I’m afraid – and was having a mid-life crisis of sorts. What to do? Build a life of family, home and volunteering? Try to re-enter the job market? I thought that writing about things, something I’ve always liked to do, would help me sort it all out; help me out of my life as a recluse. “Cathy without a plan” was born. But I got sidetracked. I couldn’t resist commenting on the news, on books I’ve read, people I’ve observed, life’s absurdities, and all manner of other things. I really haven’t been doing much ‘planning’ at all. Oh well. And in the meantime, I moved again – back to the west coast – and now have a whole new set of adventures that are surely interfering with serious planning. So I'm unsettled, indecisive and wishy-washy about what I should do ‘next'... which seems to suit me after all. I used to be one of life’s great planners. But now here I am, happily, "Cathy without a plan."

Carolyn got Kathy a jigsaw puzzle for her birthday, A photo-mosaic of Elvis, all in black and white (mostly shades of gray), with about four or five basic shapes of pieces that seemed interchangable except, of course for the pictures on them. We started to put it together, but soon gave up and turned it over to the local puzzle experts (Janet and Render) who finished it for us. It is now mounted in a frame and waiting to be hung on a wall somewhere in the house! You'll have to ask Janet about how chalenging it was to put together!
