Photo fun time

I’m bored, so I thought I’d bore you too! It’s just like visiting your inlaws house right after they return from vacation, and you have to sit through their boring slides. That’s right. Today, you get to look at some DazzlinDonna photos. Woohoo! :D

First up is a glamour shot of me when I was 30 years old. This one always cracks me up.

7 oneliners that describe me

  • I’m still a hot babe, but now it comes in flashes.
  • Of all the things I’ve lost, I miss my mind the most.

  • All I ask is the chance to prove that money can’t make me happy.

It started out like a normal day. Woke up, checked email, did my morning routine, and then headed out to the post office to get my mail. (Yeah, you remember, I have to actually leave my house now to get my mail because the punks kept destroying my mailbox). So anyway, I get to the post office, grab the TV Guide out of the box (my only mail today), get back into my car, turn the key, and ………………………..

Silence.

Nothing.

Not even a click.

Aw man….

My car wouldn’t start. I sat there stunned. I thought I’d done something wrong. Seriously. I’m getting older, and things are slipping my mind, so I just figured I’d done something stupid. I checked to make sure the gear was… Continue reading

Senior citizen cell phone

Cell phone companies really need to make simpler phones. Having been the caretaker of several senior citizens (family), some with Alzheimers, I know how important it is to be able to give an older person a cell phone that they can:

2. Hear!
3. Understand! (Simple to use, no gizmos)

The senior citizen population is HUGE and growing, yet the cell phone companies mostly ignore them completely. The only real choice I’ve been able to find is from a company called Jitterbug. I like the choices they have, and am ordering one for my father-in-law today. Still, there shouldn’t just be one company to choose from. So, c’mon cell phone companies, start making some phones that cater… Continue reading
