I've been applying for a number of jobs online.  I got an email response for one that urged me to get in contact with the recruiter.  I was all set to do just that when I noticed in the description...

So, this morning I got a call from a cousin I hadn't spoken to in years.  He's about my fathers age and I know they talk(or argue), so I immediately got concerned, thinking something had happened to...

I hadn't been so happy since they came up with a way for older women to still have children.  That was back in the 90s when this woman in her 60s had a baby.  Donated egg, of course, but as a woman...

I got bored tonight and watched an old movie called Marty.  I'd heard good things about this film for most of my life, but it just didn't look good.  I was pleasantly surprised, finding parallels...

I called it my zombie job because it had once been alive and cherished, but like the zombies of horror films, it was long dead and had become a source of distress.  Let me explain--I was a...

I think it's been nearly two months since I saw dad.  He's fine and I'm better.  This was the best decision for both of us.  He confessed that he didn't want me around because he didn't want me...

Dad called a relative in California(we live in Illinois) and told her her dad had been adopted and they weren't really Campbells.  The dad in question is over 65 and is the birth child of my uncle....

My dad called twice yesterday.  I did return his call.  We spoke for about an hour, or shall I say he spoke for about 55 minutes.  I got the other 5.  He's doing fine.  Paying neighbors fifty...

Took a two year break, now starting again.  I remember more than I thought, but need lots of refreshing.  It's fun.  I hope to one day use it for a job

Still haven't heard from Dad and was getting worried.  I resisted the urge to call him, knowing that he wouldn't welcome a call from me.  A hard truth to swallow, but I'm all about being realistic,...

Dad left a message telling me to get out of his life.  So, that's it.  End of an era.  Funny, because a year before my husband passed I woke up with the knowledge that I would lose my husband and...

Dad called today, angry about his  life and the fact that my step-daughter is still a part of my life.  He wants her out of my life, so he hung up on me.  Dear dad's calls are now being forwarded...

Still enjoying my time away from dad.  He's doing fine as expected.  In fact, we both are.  I got to be home for Superbowl and did my usual:  watch the commercials and the halftime show, while...

I started this journal on what my father says a few weeks back.  Best thing I ever did.  along with helpful comments from caring people, it allowed me to see what was really going on and how I felt...
